The following three ideas are really for the main site and mock-ups were created by Nishank, Vishvwamitra, Maharshi and Sumit from BITS:

Related Random using links
- As opposed to general random, how about related random using links, both from and to
- Results in more focused discovery
- bugzilla:32542

Show relationship
- Two terms, like names of famous people
- Show links that connect the terms, including the sentences the terms appear in
- bugzilla:32543

Ranked related links
- Show from and to links, sorted by various ranking methods, such as:
  - Number of page views
  - Ratings (Article feedback)
  - Last edited
  - Relevance (not currently defined)
- bugzilla:32544

Tablet app ideas

New Page Patrol, possible tablet app for specific tasks
Article rating as entry into annotation and editing
Annotation, private or public, separate from discussions and as entry into editing
Simple comments or discussion, at minimum notify Talk-page participants of replies - see Brainstorm
Citation entry by photo of book - see Brainstorm
Voice input search, aka Apple demo (possibly no work required)
Wiktionary and WikiNews

Qgil:

Share this – maybe clickable links in browser on iOS
Patrol a new article, could be suggested by the app - complex, Brandon
Add comment on discussion page – using newsection edit is simple
Community Portal – learn more about Wikipedia, Things to do, RSS feed of The Signpost
Editors near you - complex
Landing page - based on Last news + On this day + Featured article + Pic of the day + Media of the day - complex?
Related articles, leaving genuine links to external articles - External links - low
Limit searches and browsing to pages of certain quality - no good UI, not all languages - complex
Edit profile – auto-input from device info, insert user banners as gallery?, auto location update, auto update of “Pictures I have loaded from my device”

Other:

View edit history - time, username, edit, then diff (basic diff appears now), clear workflow to see edits
Community – Signpost, Village Pump, Article trending, meetups near me - hackathon
API usage data and traffic through large mirrors like Facebook (open RFP) - platform, tokens, not so complex but time-consuming

Move “Mobile View” to top - UX needed
Increase line-height - CSS percentage, test across devices, UX
Keys for navigation - not complex, some UX
Content lists non-touch - ?
Thumbnail to screen width, or inline if screen is more than 300 pixels wide - UX, store in some standard sizes
Mobile editing UI - complex, Trevor, Ines, Brion
Change table.metadata to metadata - bugzilla:31510

Feature parity with Android app
Disable the automatic download of the featured article when launching Wikipedia Mobile for iPhone?
- Why this would lose utility for no clear benefit.
When you clear the history and immediately exit the app and close it (by opening multitasking, holding the icon and tapping the cross), the next time you open the app the history is still there.
- PhoneGap-based app has no facility to clear history.
Also not really a bug (I think), but a bit annoying nonetheless: the homepage gets added to the history as well. Could you consider not doing this anymore? I thought this was the behavior in old versions.
- Could consider it... ...no actually that would mean you'd lose the main page from back/forward behavior and restoration from previous run. Seems like that would be negative?
App crashes on launch with iOS 4.2.2 (need to check)
- Old app or new app? New app is unrelated, so any crash won't be the same. New app may or may not be able to run on iOS 4.2 at all; currently requires web browser features new in iOS 5.0.
If you change the language from Dutch in to English the problem is gone the app is working, when you go back to Dutch the app is not working (iOS 5.1)
- Old app or new app? Such problems in old app presumably would not transfer automatically to the new app. New app needs to be tested to ensure that localization works.
