Hi all,
where do I find infos for "Wikipedia Mobile"?
* iTunes:
They name it Wikipedia Mobile. http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/wikipedia-mobile/id324715238?mt=8
However, they do link to http://wikitech.wikimedia.org/view/Mobile_iPhone
... there it is named "Mobile iPhone"
What's the real name?
* List archives
The Mobile iPhone does name
Please send any development questions to the Mobile Wikipedia List
How do you subscribe to this list? Are there any web archives of the list contents?
Maybe you know the answers, but where's their documentation how to find it?
* wikitech.wikimedia.org content for Admins only.
Is it really the best place to use wikitech? This site is for Admins only. Users without account have no right to edit anything and users can not register to this site.
Thus even the discussion page is locked to anyone looking for infos http://wikitech.wikimedia.org/view/Talk:Mobile_iPhone
Suggestion: someone might add some more infos in order to help others, PLEASE.
Thanks, Martin
Greetings Martin,
Sorry for the confusion.

Currently the Wikipedia iOS application is holding while we draft up some new ideas on feature development. We've been actively discussing them here and would love to get your thoughts

Wikipedia Mobile is what I always refer to it as.
- List archives
Open bug on this right now https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=28432

We'll have to remove some of the archives in order to do that. We just haven't gotten around to it yet.

A great starting point for all of our active mobile projects can be found here: http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Mobile_Projects
Let me know if you have any move questions.

Thanks, that's interesting.

It would help to name https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/mobile-l - and I don't understand the virtual limitation of access since anyone my subscribe to the list and then read the archives.

I feel this should be named on http://wikitech.wikimedia.org/view/Mobile_iPhone - while I feel that this page is inappropriate anyway (see name confusion).
Let me know if you have any move questions.
My own wishes would be out of place, I'm afraid:
* I'd like the option to use it both offline and online, including a download option to geht a dump update when desired.
* The geolocation is a very nice starting point, but I do see the need for a much more simple approach to find other points, either from "what links here" or from categories.
The feature to show entries close to the current location could be most interesting. But it does show very little info only. First I thought that coordinates would be missing - but whenever I checked, the wikipedia entries had those entries.
No need to add them - even if I knew how to do that in Wikipedia Mobile.
The wikipedia layer over google maps does show all these entries - in comparison these where 3 WM entries and 82 layer entries in my town here.
Thanks, Martin
