Editing pages with or without templates works under the Vector skin on both iOS and Android, although scrolling in the textarea can be difficult if you aren't used to it.
Are referring to the fact that the mobile skin silently omits many if not most templates, and prevents users from editing them? The thought that active editors will ever take a skin which does that seriously is absurd.
Hoi, It is equally absurd to mistake a product under development with a finished product. When you admit it is difficult for you to use the Vector skin you implicitly admit that Vector is not usable for someone who does not have your advanced skills.
The point to the discussion is that we are only now getting to the point where editing from mobiles becomes feasible. It needs to be editable by the 30%+ of our new readers not by the people who run for their laptop when it becomes difficult or unfamiliar. Thanks, GerardM

Thank you for demonstrating my point so nicely: the reason Mobile is going to have an impact is not that it will have an impact on the delta, but because there are additional factors to juggle when working on solutions to said delta.
