{{ editprotected}} Should this not say report to a developer rather than to an administrator? It is referring to reporting possible bugs in the software. (I believe this change to be uncontroversial, but feel free to remove the {{ editprotected}} tag if you oppose the change.) — Alan ✉ 08:05, 19 August 2008 (UTC)

Enclose this message in a <div> with an id attribute, so that it may be referred to by automated processes and user style sheets:
<div id="mw-missing-article"> The database did not find the text of a page that it should have found, named "$1" $2. This is usually caused by following an outdated diff or history link to a page that has been deleted. If this is not the case, you may have found a bug in the software. Please [[Wikipedia:Village pump (technical)|report this]], making note of the URL. </div>

The current message suggests that the page has been deleted, but this is not always the case. It should also mention links to deleted or incorrect diffs, something like "Other possible causes are an incorrect URL, or deleted revisions in an existing page." — Snigbrook 17:23, 13 October 2008 (UTC)

The latest edit links to the deletion log, but there's a bug in the extension used to generate the URL. Reported at Bugzilla #18794. I've left the code in pending a fix, as bugs like this often get fixed quite quickly. FT2 ( Talk | email) 01:47, 14 May 2009 (UTC)

Revisions from early 2005 that are affected by bug 20757 now display this error message. I've therefore added a note about the bug to MediaWiki:Missing-article, which has made the message somewhat more clunky. My note should be removed when the bug is fixed. Graham 87 08:30, 8 February 2010 (UTC)
