Aren't most mobile browsers supposed to be redirected to
mobile.wikipedia.org anyway?
BTW, we are slowly fixing Vector issues for obscure browsers. For
example, I just recently fixed Vector for the PS3's browser. To fix
these issues we need 2 things: A complete description of the environment
and display behavior (preferably with a screenshot or even a photo of
your cell phone screen), and a way to test it. For some mobile phones we
can use emulators, but for others we have no easy way to test Vector on
them.

Is there any timescale for this being fixed? At the very least,
graceful degradation put into place?
Latest bug report (from a friend in a Facebook conversation):
"mazing. conservapedia still works on my mobile, wikipedia doesn't."
"htc touch pro 2, windows mobile 6.1 pro, using internet explorer
(because opera is a steaming pile of shit). not sure what version of
IE...
yeah, wikipedia used to work marvelously, i've completely stopped
using it since the update - i only... ever used it to look things up
in the pub anyways, anywhere else i'd need better cites :P"
Please. Save our readers from having to use Conservapedia instead,
just because Monobook works and Vector doesn't!
Just switch to Discover :-)
