Change Details

MobileFrontend since its inception has been applying formatting to the main page of MediaWiki sites. This code while adding confusion for editors and technical maintenance by WMF adds a performance penalty as it requires additional PHP processing as well as provides different experiences to mobile users - usually in the form of hiding content. For example on English Wikipedia only "Today's featured content" and "In the news" sections are served to mobile users. This code was deprecated in 2017 and is planned for removal in April 2020. With the adoption of Extension:TemplateStyles this code is now obsolete and many projects have made the appropriate updates that make content adapt to mobile screens. Instructions on how to migrate can be found on [[ https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Mobile_Gateway/Mobile_homepage_formatting#MFSpecialCaseMainPage | mediawiki.org ]]. Actions required from editors: 1) For projects you are users of please apply the query string `?mfnolegacytransform=1&debug=1` to your main page on mobile and compare it with the main page without the query. For example users of english Wikipedia would compare https://en.m.wikipedia.org/?mfnolegacytransform=1&debug=1 with https://en.m.wikipedia.org/ - please document what you see and report it on your local community discussion page e.g. Wikipedia:Village_pump 2) Check if your wiki can be fixed by [[ https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Mobile_Gateway/Mobile_homepage_formatting#I_don't_have_time!_(Quick_fix) | the recommended quick fix ]]. 3) If your project needs more time to migrate please comment here or on the talk page [[https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Talk:Mobile_Gateway/Mobile_homepage_formatting|mw:Talk:Mobile Gateway/Mobile homepage formatting]] 4) Please raise any technical questions on [[https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Talk:Mobile_Gateway/Mobile_homepage_formatting|mw:Talk:Mobile Gateway/Mobile homepage formatting]].
