The problem is known. Several people have reported it to the technicians, over the past 6 hours or so. It is logged here.

I'm sorry, but I don't know much about what is causing it - something about some specific servers, and some memory/cache issue.

Refreshing the page seems to 'fix' things.

So, to answer your query - no, there is no need to report such errors. Thanks,  Chzz  ►  08:18, 26 December 2010 (UTC)

OK, Thank you Narracan3824 (talk) 08:19, 26 December 2010 (UTC)

It has also been reported in Wikipedia:Village pump (technical)/Archive 124#Weird_error_on_loading_WP:VPT.  Chzz  ►  08:21, 26 December 2010 (UTC)

It should be fixed now - I heard, from the tech team. It was caused by an error on some specific server(s) causing a corruption, and when they were restarted, the Apache (cache) retained the problem for some time. That's also now been cleared. So, all should be well. Just thought I'd let you know.  Chzz  ►  18:00, 26 December 2010 (UTC)
