           Summary: Deprecate old mobile.wikipedia.org
           Product: Wikipedia Mobile
           Version: .5
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: Normal
         Component: server
        AssignedTo: [email protected]
        ReportedBy: [email protected]
                CC: [email protected]


Having two mobile solutions is a bother and mark has multiple times wished we
do away with the old HAWHAW server.

I asked mark to look at the accesslogs of mobile.wikipedia.org and he counted
1.6M requests for transcode.php for todays log (22 hours). Much of this is
probably explained by the fact that this mobile server scores pretty high on
Google and en.m.wikipedia.org is unfindable on Google.

To deprecate ideally, we would need a full WML wap1 interface for
en.m.wikipedia, or we should choose not to support that platform anymore (it's
about 4 years old now, which is beyond the average lifespan of a phone
actually).

When deprecated, we can redirect mobile.wikipedia.org to m.wikipedia.org
