Forum 'view' links return a 200 status on a 404 template

[jonoaldersonwp]

The following URLs are linked to from within the wp.org ecosystem, and return a 404 template with a 200 HTTP status:

• ​https://wordpress.org/support/view/popular/
• ​https://wordpress.org/support/view/archived
• ​https://wordpress.org/support/view/spam/
• ​https://wordpress.org/support/view/taggedmodlook/
• ​https://wordpress.org/support/view/pending/

These should return a 404 HTTP status.

The popular one is a not found, but the rest are legitimate and return content.

Not for me. Do you have special privs? Have you tested in incognito?

Okay, yeah, these are legitimate pages for moderators basically. It's empty if you can't see hidden things like spam and archived posts and so forth.

404's make sense for 4 of those, but /taggedmodlook will have valid posts on it from time to time, between the time a post is flagged and the time a moderator looks at it. Also it has the permanent modlook post on it, so I'm not sure why it doesn't show up if you're not logged in.
