Workaround is to fall back to source-based editing for this page at the moment.

This issue seems to be present when trying to edit most/any pages with the visual editor for many/all users (as brought up in #gentoo-wiki, and I just tried the visual-editor myself and the error in the title of this bug pops up in a "dialogue" during visual-editor "startup").

I think this bug should perhaps be assigned to infra so I'll do that now, sorry in advance if this is wrong.

Also this is a bit of a serious issue for the wiki, as it is stopping some users from contributing, so I'll bump up the "importance" of the bug a bit.

Thanks everyone.
