The Community Tech team at the Wikimedia Foundation is pushing a fix to a
longstanding issue regarding block notices for users on mobile devices. A
year ago, if a blocked user attempted to edit a page from their mobile
device, a notice popped up for just a few seconds before automatically
disappearing, giving most people insufficient time to read it. Moreover,
if
the reason for a block contained a wikilink or a
template, the notice
would
fail to render the link, instead displaying raw
HTML. This led to botched
notifications that looked as bad as this: <https://commons.wikimedia.
org/wiki/File:Autoblock_of_usernamekiran.png>.
I’m happy to see that a fix is almost ready to be deployed which
addresses
many issues, including rendering links properly.
