If a page is too wide it' impossible to see all its content.
android latest announced version
I'm not sure I understand this bug. Is it referring to the mobile site or the mobile app. Can you provide more information e.g. pages showing this problem, the browser and device that this happens under etc... Thanks!

So I'm assuming Android 4.* Can you give an example page you are seeing this problem on as I'm still unsure to what you are referring to. It's possibly fixed already on the development version. Thanks in advance!

Here is a specific example reported by a user today in the Wiktionary app and Android 2.3.6, but I have reproduced the problem in the Wikipedia Android app v1.2.1 on Android 2.3.6. Content such as tables that extend past the right edge of the screen are cut off, and no scrolling is possible. Screenshot attached. I used the Wikipedia article: "grammatical conjugation."

Various tables are problematic on the mobile site as well - this is because overflow-x is not supported in older devices. However on the mobile site you can zoom out to see them in their entirety. We may want to consider replacing tables with an image that when clicked does <insert solution here> to make them readable.

Retiring the PhoneGap-based app, this likely won't apply quite the same to the new native apps.

As noted in #36682, the problem doesn't seem to occur on the mobile web. I run into this on WP more than on Wikt (and as a result have Wiki Encyclopedia installed on my phone as well, which I would prefer to drop; it provides a similar overall experience but simply loads the mobile site.)
