Yes and "everywhere important". The graph of countries ranked by mobile edits looks identical to the graph of countries ranked by desktop edit; the only difference between the two is that nobody from Chad edits on their phone. https://github.com/oliver-papers/MobileUserInterfaces is a fragment of a paper I was working on with Scott Hale; the images there may be useful.

Hi,

Do we have statistics about where people are mobile-editing Wikimedia projects from?

Are there countries where people read Wikimedia projects on mobile devices a lot, but edit little or not at all?

Also, is editing enabled through Wikipedia Zero? I heard conflicting reports about it.
