Required rights for "Special:PageTranslationDeletePage"

Looking through the documentation, it doesn't seem to explain what rights are required to access the page Special:PageTranslationDeletePage. Is it just the translation administrator right (as used locally through WMF wikis) or is it that right in combination with another right? If it is a combination (which I believe that may be), then it would be useful for the error message to say which rights are required (in combination), rather than the right that is missing. I would also note that Special:SpecialPages does seem to note this deletion page, nor can I find ready reference to its actions either. It would be great if those more knowledgeable would be able to remedy this situation. Thanks.

Works for me on Meta (where I'm translation admin):

You do not have permission to delete this page, for the following reason:
The action you have requested is limited to users in the group: Administrators.

But yes, permissions could be checked earlier. I expanded docs a bit.

And yes, it's one of many unlisted special pages.

I have specifically mentioned the special page, otherwise it sits mute, and not findable by use of search, which I consider less than desirable.
