Description Brion Vibber 2008-12-17 21:46:26 UTC 
Currently the hawhaw-based mobile wikipedia gateway only supports languages for which there's a localization of the interface. If you ask for another one on the subdomain, you get English instead; and you can't select anything else in the settings dialog.

It would be nice to let it handle *any* language we have a Wikipedia for, falling back to the English UI for the gateway.

This may require some hacks to fetch keywords and sitenames out of MediaWiki localization files or the API directly. (Eg, siteinfo can provide namespace names... but not thumbnail keywords.)
Comment 1 Chad H. 2009-07-28 18:59:34 UTC 
Marking this as WONTFIX. The Hawhaw-based interface has been abandoned in favor of the wikimedia-mobile code. Any improvements to it should be done there, not here.
