Toolbar shows on non-existent pages
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

The toolbar still shows if the page does not exist.

This should only happen if the page is deleted after it's first added to their openTask cookie. S:GS has a length check (which implicitly includes checking that the page exists). Thus, this is worth fixing, but shouldn't be that common.

I tried to replicate this on piramido.wmflabs.org by deleting a page I had just been served correctly via Special:GettingStarted with the toolbar and then returning.

I still had the openTask cookie associated with that task/article, but the toolbar did not display on the redlink view (&action=edit&redlink=1). I did, however, get the guided tour.

I think that's because it's action=edit. If you visit directly (/wiki/Article), without action=edit, you should be able to reproduce.

Bingo. Will attach screengrab for verification.
