Description Ryan Kaldari 2013-08-27 23:31:06 UTC 
We've gotten a few complaints about pages like https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dunning-Kruger_effect looking bad on mobile due to giant vertical navboxes. Horizontal navboxes look even worse, but are usually hidden in the External links or References section, so people don't see them as often. Either navboxes should be significantly redesigned for mobile use, or they should be hidden in the mobile view (similar to how they are already hidden for the print version of articles).

In progress just waiting for feedback.
Comment 2 Ryan Kaldari 2013-08-28 17:28:44 UTC 
Specifically, Jon implemented a temporary hack for en.wiki:
https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=MediaWiki%3AMobile.css&diff=570464813&oldid=570426583

We're waiting to see what community reaction is (if any) before implementing a more permanent solution.
