By Feb 25 we should have two image upload workflows on the mobile web: 
uploading and inserting images directly into an article, and uploading from the 
side navigation panel and donating the image to Commons. The latter will be 
much easier to test, since the former requires finding an article with no 
images, then adding an image that's appropriate for the article in question. 
The latter can be any image, really, as long as it's not copyrighted. Both of 
these will require users to be logged in. 

I'd suggest that as a first pass we simply invite users to kick the tires with 
a variety of devices/browsers on the upload-from-sidebar -- only top shelf 
brands are going to offer full upload functionality, but it would be good to 
make sure that older devices/quirky browsers decay gracefully and don't 
introduce any unexpected chaos.

Does that sound reasonable? I'm new to this, too, but very interested in seeing 
how it goes! :)
