Basically, anything that needs custom JS to work will break on mobile. FANDOM staff knows this and they don't seem to want to do anything about it. Apologies, I didn't mean to imply that no. I haven't tested either of them on mobile, only reported what was listed in "issues". With tab view the articles are listed, rather than all of the contents of all three articles poured onto the page at once.

And yes, I haven't used it and didn't know it could use content from other articles, this is what I was hoping for help doing. You have just given me the key to figuring it on my own, the wiki community uses the term "transclude". So now I'll be able to look this up b myself and figure out how to put it in there and, hopefully, everything will look okay.

I am not actually overly familiar with web design coding (when I was at school, we were lucky PCs were even introduced and we got 'typing' classes. Haha!). So I didn't know these extensions relied on JavaScript at all. I just assumed it was all part of the functionality of MediaWiki.

Thanks again, both of you, for your patience! Hopefully I can figure out how to get transclusions to work within the Tabber extension, and hopefully it won't deter people from editing on the wiki.
