Description Juliusz Gonera 2013-04-30 00:40:47 UTC
Currently it doesn't: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Sortable_table

Exception thrown by mediawiki.page.ready: Unknown dependency: jquery.tablesorter 

Apart from adding mobile target in Resources.php in core, we need to fix our CSS because <td> positioning is wrong when using tablesorter.
Comment 1 Jon 2013-04-30 14:29:25 UTC
What is the benefit of adding this to mobile?
Do people really care about table sorting on a mobile device?
Does it even make sense on a mobile phone?
How does this play into existing problems with tables which have remained unsolved for years [1]?
How would the controls work on mobile?

We should think from the user's perspective rather than the existing code perspective.

Comment 2 Jon 2013-04-30 14:30:25 UTC
Also:
Is it worth the additional payload no matter how small?
Has the existing code been tested vigorously across mobile devices? Will it be tested vigorously in future?
Comment 3 Juliusz Gonera 2013-04-30 19:23:04 UTC
While I agree that this is not a top priority, I'm not sure why the status is UNCONFIRMED.
Comment 4 Jon 2013-05-01 14:49:47 UTC
Not sure what happened there didn't mean to change it. Marking as NEW again.
