I was thinking more along the lines of a standard mobile main page template that generates one automatically. Active wikis can customize it, and deserted wikis still get a decent mobile main page.

The main page with its columns and boxes is a relic from monobook, but many people cling to it because of nostalgic, "wikis are supposed to look like that" reasons.
