If I change my default system language from English to anything else, I get

So, yes, in the future we should make sure to send the link to this list

I don't think it's easy to obtain the broken link. (I assume Johan just

copy the previous weeks link and change the numbers.) But just in case,
I've filed https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T135855
