The Wikimedia Foundation plans to remove support for
WML for
Wikimedia projects, in order to steer more development toward the
web's de facto markup language, HTML, on mobile web browsers.
A trial of the WML deprecation is slated to begin
February 17,
2014, and assuming no major hiccups, will no longer be supported as of February 24, 2014.
WML usage has fallen dramatically and appears to now
be below
0.009% of hits across Wikipedia in general. Even in markets with
greater feature phone usage, direct WML usage still falls below
0.1%; in some of these markets there is no WML usage.
If you have concerns, please reply to this thread.
This has just been implemented (thanks a lot, Faidon!). Please let us
know if you've encountered any problems. If there will be no issues
reported for a week, this change will become permanent.
