            Bug ID: 68249
           Summary: Editing redlinks is broken (in any mode)
           Product: MobileFrontend
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: major
          Priority: Unprioritized
         Component: General/Unknown

If you try to edit a redlink or go directly to the URL for editing a
non-existent page, it throws a fatal error and sends you to a 404 page.

For example, try going to:
http://en.m.wikipedia.beta.wmflabs.org/wiki/Nullarticle?action=edit&redlink=1

Same behavior in alpha, beta, and stable. (You can follow redlinks from
lazy-loaded pages after editing even in stable.)

It looks like it is trying to send the user to
Special:MobileEditor/<pagetitle>, which causes a fatal error and then redirects
to:
http://en.wikipedia.beta.wmflabs.org/w/undefined
