One cause of this error is an attempt to load a URL such as http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/| (the | character is not permitted in page titles).

This error message is also displayed when a URL pointing to a "non-local" interwiki page is encountered. For example, the URL http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/meatball:WikiPedia will give this error, because the "meatball:" interwiki prefix is not marked as local in the interwiki table. Certain interwiki prefixes are marked as local in the table. For example, the URL http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/meta:Main_page can be used to load meta:Main_page. All interlanguage prefixes are marked as local, and thus URLs such as http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/fr:Accueil will work as expected.
