Invalid manuscript article created

I seem to have created a manuscript instead of a prose, as an article.   Was working with a Prose Article and wanted to create and link the next chapter of my prose, so I tried to create the "next" prose article. Thinking I was under article navigation instead, I attempted to create and link a new article under the article's Sections-->Sidebar Sections-->Associated Manuscripts, "Create and Link a New Article". (this option is not exclusive to prose). It did not ask for an article type, just a name, and created...something.   Despite seeing the new "article" in my Dashboard, it does not give me a UI when I click it, and it won't load in Articles. The link itself gives me a 404 so I can't edit it through page controls either.   Since I can't access it, I can't delete it. Can someone please remove the https://www.worldanvil.com/w/luridity/a/xicians-1-2-manuscript "article" from my Luridity world? Repro steps for creating a "manuscript article" are provided. :) Thank you!

Steps to Reproduce

1. Open an article (I was in a prose article.) 2. Under Sections-->Sidebar Sections--> there is Associated Manuscripts. 3. click the "Create and Link a New Article" button. 4. type in the name and hit Create. 5. https://www.worldanvil.com/w/luridity/a/xicians-1-2-manuscript was created. It can be seen in the list of articles in my Dashboard, but does not load. Manually entering the address in the browser brings up 404. It is also not a manuscript, and does not show up there.   6. I would like it removed from Luridity as it appears to be causing other issues with my world (see end of bug report). I can't find a way to delete this "article" myself as I can't bring it up.   I have another article https://www.worldanvil.com/w/luridity/a/xicians-1-2-prose that IS working and should not be deleted, however the manuscript "article" is definitely a problem.

Related Entity

both "articles" shown in my Dashboard. The second one there (https://www.worldanvil.com/w/luridity/a/xicians-1-2-manuscript) does not bring up the user interface for article interaction.
  the "create new article and link" under Associated Manuscripts.
  no field for article type.
(I just assumed it would make one of the same type, because I hadn't had coffee yet lol. But if it was supposed to make a manuscript, it did not do that either. Manuscripts do not appear in the dropdown for me.)   (Additionally, these are likely related issues that I'm hoping self-resolve once the "article" is removed: Searches for "Xicians" or "1-2" do not bring up any article results. Currently unable to load *some* lists under Articles-->Lists which I suspect is because that article would have otherwise been included with the results. Other searches are successful.)

Manuscripts do appear, but only manuscripts that are connected to the world.

(Sorry, yes! Clarifying: if it was supposed create a manuscript in that world it did not; I don't see it on my manuscripts page and cannot load it in that dropdown for Luridity.)

Just a quick update on my end: the article does show up in an api call, but still can't figure out a way to get it gone. article ID: 6cc4a98d-d86a-46f3-b246-0c3274bf4294
