Mobile chrome gives a little more info.

Research direction
Start by reproducing the /wiki requests for a user without read access and for a nonexistent wiki in the supported browsers. Trace the server handling for those 403 and 404 responses; done means each returns a page with a specific error message and a “go back home” button instead of an empty or browser-generated page.
