Krinkle <[email protected]> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- CC| |[email protected] --- Comment #4 from Krinkle <[email protected]> 2012-04-07 20:32:18 UTC --- Random idea: MediaWiki has a i18n setting "mainpage" that takes a full page name which it uses to link to the main page in the logo and other place. Maybe it would make sense to (instead forcing the main page to be in a specific format and apply a fragile conversion to it for mobile), instead have an actual wiki page be the mobile main page. An interface message like "mobilefrontend-mainpage" (empty by default, which setup will fallback to "mainpage") would be used for it. The reason for this is that, although wmf wikis have the (arguably unfortunate) habbit of creating complex main page that uses dozens-of-level-deep nested tables with at least 2 columns, I know many (non-wmf) wikis that don't. And it is exactly these "complex mainpages" that are in need for a mobile version, the simple main pages that other wikis have don't need this conversion per se. Since (afaik) all complex-mainpage-having wikis use tranclusion to include the content into the main page sections, it would be fairly trivial to create a mobile version that re-uses the same content in a different, mobile-friendly, main page. That way there are no requirements and wikis can make the mobile version just the way they want them to be. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug.
