Brion, this is a great effort and your thinking ties into a broader initiative loosely called Wikipedia menu.<div><br></div><div>Brandon and Heather will start looking at Wikipedia menu fairly soon, so I am copying them specifically.</div>
<div><br></div><div>Steven&#39;s point about the TOC is a good one to test. But a Wikipedia menu could make a sliding TOC more usable by giving it more context. Or maybe the menu slides on from one side and the TOC from the other. Or possibly we don&#39;t want a TOC in that form.</div>

We can match with the standard darker style instead if we prefer it.<br>

Mostly all I want to do on mobile is search and read, and I think people are used to just scrolling down for more content, not using a TOC dropdown.</div>
