Their aim is to make it easier for tablet readers to access content. I'm hoping that they do not bar local CSS and JS fixes when it comes around to release time so that the administrators of a given wiki can make it less cumbersome. It's still likely not to be formally announced or released as an open beta until Q3-Q4 2015.

I think it's a little silly seeing as 97% of users view the RSW on desktops (5/2-6/3).

Can't win them all though. :(

Why would they base a website, which is designed to give guidance to players of a desktop, browser-based game, on tablet accessibility?

Anyway, it looks like this on my desktop (with my regular sized chrome), phone and tablet respectively:

Looks bad on all 3 platforms tbh.

Eh.. I don't think changing how it looks will change that. I really only use the wiki when looking something up and 99% of the time its on my desktop.

Still in beta, but that's what they want to do. It's something they've been moving towards for a year now. I'd like to improve them for local usage if they don't pull their T&C violation point again on us (or me for doing local changes) when it is released.

Just wondered if others saw it the same as I have in it needing many changes to allow it to be readable on larger screens and fixed on mobile devices as necessary.

I think I tried the new wiki skin or whatever (it said there was an error and reloaded the page) and can't really tell a difference on mobile. As a frequent mobile-er, though, the new loading with the visual circle feels a lot slower and sort of freezes my browser compared to just tapping a link and loading the new page a year or two ago
