Currently, any failed request to the source Wiki will result in the target Wikibase entering an error state. One situation that needs to be handled in the editing workflow is when searching for a federated property is attempted and no results are found because accessing the source wiki is impossible.
If searching for a property fails while adding/editing a statement, then we should display an error message in the search results: "Properties temporarily unavailable." Currently, search results are displayed as "No match was found"hile searching for a property in the +add statement workflow results in the message "No match was found" in place of search results.
If searching for a property fails while adding/editing a statement, then we should display a different error message in the search results: "Properties temporarily unavailable."
**BDD**
`Given` I am adding or editing a statement with federated properties enabled
`And` properties are unavailable due to a failed call to the source Wiki
`When` I begin typing a property label or P# into the search field
`Then` an error message is displayed in the search results that indicates "Properties temporarily unavailable"
**Note**: this needs to be made testable in the test system for product verification to take place!
