Description billinghurst 2011-09-20 12:37:36 UTC
I am trying to understand the (aberrant?) behaviour of urls that point to the various Main_page, compared with a direct copy of the same code and its normal display behaviour.

http://en.m.wikisource.org/w/index.php?title=Main_Page
displays  **  View this page on regular Wiktionary | Disable images on mobile site
Permanently disable mobile site ** and no main text

 vs. a driect copy of the code
http://en.m.wikisource.org/w/index.php?title=Main_Page/sandbox
which displays the page in an expected fashion.

If our main pages are the entry point, are they not meant to display in a mobile fashion?  Is there a need for a mobile entry point?

I also get the same behaviour at 
http://en.m.wiktionary.org/w/index.php?title=Main_Page

[To note that I am not sure of the forum to ask mobile specific questions.]
Thanks

Does the message actually say "View this page on regular *Wiktionary*" when viewing the Wikisource site?
Comment 2 billinghurst 2011-09-21 07:14:52 UTC
No, it does say Wikisource. Convenient though bad pasting behaviour :-/
Comment 3 Brion Vibber 2011-09-22 23:24:48 UTC
There is explicit special handling of the main page on the mobile gateway.

I believe some of these basics should still be accurate?

Working as expected. Closing
