It would *seem* that every user
converted to the mobile site is a step towards
extinction of the wiki.
That is an excellent point Frederico. In addition to the inherent
difficulties of editing on small screen, especially large articles and
the "we know better approach" discussed in detail in the last weeks,
there is also the problem of navigating between articles - the mobile
website arbitrarily skips some elements visible on desktop, such as
navboxes and significantly alter some infoboxes because "it doesn't
look good". This makes it difficult to just browse the Wikipedia (thus
finding mistakes that you might want to correct) and encourages
searching for the information, which means going right on target
Hopefully the future announced at Wikimania, "no more mobile team, but
mobile in every team" will solve some of these problems. It's just a
matter of when will this future be.
