I'm trying mobile editing and having a hard time. Does the app not support mobile editing and is editing talk pages not allowed on the mobile web version? Thanks -- Pine ✉ 02:52, 3 July 2014 (UTC)
Hi ABaso, I got your request at VPT to post on Phabricator, but I am having some trouble registering to do it. Is it okay if I post here and you re-post it on my behalf? Prisonermonkeys ( talk) 06:22, 31 August 2016 (UTC)
In the past few years, WP:F1 has established a consensus that says its articles should be written in such a way that emphasises accessibility and readability for all users, irrespective of the device that they are using; this includes computers, tablets and mobile devices. If a user reports that an article cannot be read, then the community seeks to improve the quality of the article without impacting upon the ability of other users to read it. Because of this, Formula One articles—such as 2016 Formula One season—often use complex markup in tables (and associated results matrices, which are styled as templates for stability) and frequently employ multiple templates. An example of this is the use of the flagicon and nowrap templates; the flagicon is a visual representation of a team or driver's nationality, while the nowrap keeps everything on one line and prevents some very messy side effects that can come about when the table sort function is used.
However, recent updates to the Wikipedia software—introduced in the past month or so—have rendered the use of multiple templates impossible. This is most noticeable on mobile devices. Originally this forced everything across two lines; when that was fixed, the spacing was incorrect; when that was fixed, the flags themselves were not displayed properly; now flagicons do not appear properly when used with other templates. Strangely enough, they do appear properly when viewed in the editing preview window.
