API error? I looked at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:CreateMassMessageList and I just get the standard "No such special page" error.

https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Special:CreateMassMessageList shows the form while logged in or logged out.

Try using https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Special:CreateMassMessageList in a non-admin account or logged out and attempt to create a new list. It should display an error.
