Meantime, here's an error message that happens frequently during editing:

Proxy Error

The proxy server received an invalid response from an upstream server.
The proxy server could not handle the request POST /wikipedia/en/w/index.php.

Reason: Error reading from remote server

I get a similar error sometimes on Preview or just reading a page:

Proxy Error

The proxy server received an invalid response from an upstream server.
The proxy server could not handle the request GET /wikipedia/en/wiki/Wikipedia 
talk:Biographies of living persons.

Reason: Error reading from remote server
