This experiment desperately needs documentation (both on
mediawiki.org and
Meta:Research).
Moushira, would you be able to help coordinate such documentation so that
we are more clearly communicating with the community about these changes?
(Even I can't keep up with what we are doing with the last modified bar in
mobile and why.) You might need to talk with some of the designers about
the rationale for the changes. Maryana may also be able to provide some
insights.

Please do consider this in the redesign which has now been promoted to
beta.
"Before in the mobile edition of Wikipedia, it showed at the top the
hours or days since last revision and the user name. Now the username is
not there. Bring it back and even consider it for the full desktop version.
That is how we encourage people to update this site and not think some
editorial board does it."
