In the 2+ years I've been at the Foundation a recurring email thread /
bug reports have been in the form "X page doesn't render on mobile" or
"Can I have a nodesktop/mobileonly class?"

The problem is almost always an issue such as a huge margin left, or
some floating or fixed width css.

The answer to doing this is to provide a tool for wiki editors to
allow them to fix these kinds of problems.

There is an RFC [1] open with a suggested solution, and all that is
needed now is to implement it.

The general consensus was people wanted <style> tags. The original
proof of concept however used a separate page (Template:Foo would have
a corresponding stylesheet at Template:Foo.css) which was much easier
to implement.

I truly believe implementing this would reduce the bugs raised about
template specific problems, and lead to a better mobile experience. Is
this something the mobile team can schedule time for, or some other
team?
