Looks like MobileFrontend uses the onOutputPageBeforeHTML hook to completely override the contents of a if it's an uncreated user page. This presumably needs to be updated so it doesn't do this in the parse API.
@DLynch I agree with your assessment here. Likely a long term bug we have never noticed.
@Jdlrobson It does require a very specific and uncommon action to notice it, certainly. :D
Looks like the simplest way to fix this would be to use the onBeforeDisplayNoArticleText hook instead. That's what we used in DiscussionTools for a similar message shown on talk pages, and (I just checked) it doesn't suffer from this issue.
