Extra white space is a known issue being tracked.

Tracked in Phabricator
Task T217769

• Version A, Version B: which experience did you prefer? Why?
  • I preferred Version B, although the load time was a bit slower than I had expected. That being said the loading indicator was significantly clearer in Version B then on Version A.
  • I liked being able to focus on the section. When loading Version A I was initially brought to the Wikitext editor and then my place was lost when I switched to VE.
  • One negative with Version B was the extra empty space at the bottom of the section, it made it harder for me to gauge by looking at the scroll indicator how much text was included in the editing view (eg. would it be one section or all of the sections below the selected section).
  • I also found the two step process (check and then publish) for publishing my edit to be a bit confusing and cumbersome.
• What device and browser did you use to test Versions A and B?
  • iPhone X running iOS 12.1.2
  • Chrome app
• How familiar are you with the visual editor?
  • Familiar
• How frequently do you use the visual editor on a mobile device?
  • Never (Sorry, I always edit in the app!)
