Question

When you visit en.wikipedia.org with an iPhone you are forwarded to en.m.wikipedia.org which is formatted beautifully for the device. I have MediaWiki on my own server and I d love to have this formatting available when I visit my site with my iPhone. Is there an easy way to enable this? I ve gotten as far as www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:$wgHandheldForIPhone and http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:MobileSkin but nothing is jumping out at me.

Answer 1

I operate Wikiaudio and this is what I did:

Install and use this extension, to detect this skin (WP touch).

Answer 2

m.wikipedia.org is based on the wikimedia-mobile server, whose source code is available here:

http://github.com/hcatlin/wikimedia-mobile

It s a proxy of sorts that gets pages from Wikipedia, shuffles the contents and then serves them out formatted for mobiles, with caching to speed up things. It s written in Ruby and seems to be fairly customized for Wikipedia and the Monobook skin.

Answer 3

Wikipedia uses MobileFrontend.

Answer 4

You posted a link with complete instructions on how to deploy this into your installation of MediaWiki...

-t

Answer 5

I don t believe it s a skin that s on general release yet and was developed specifically for Wikipedia.
