 * Then you're implying..., So this update worked out for you, good.

Please do not put words in my mouth.


 * It's not my responsibility to "come up with a better idea", that's their job.

I never said it was. You said that it's "Wikia's job to make all wikis look good throughout all platforms", and this is their latest attempt, which they are unlikely to change until a better idea surfaces. Given the fact that so many wide-screen users have noticed their layouts were not optimised, I think Wikia will consider this attempt a success.


 * Then why was this update even released?

I cannot answer this question. I regularly state that I think Wikia needs to do more testing before release.


 * And that's exactly what (at least in my case) I'll be forced to do

No-one is forcing you to use Wikia, to use Oasis, or to use Wikia's default Oasis look.


 * As for the wider option, obviously it has not been satisfactory for most of the people, as you can see.

I doubt many of them have even tried Monobook.


 * That's their job not ours.

...what?
 * The content added by users is not Wikia's responsibility.
 * Would you like Wikia Staff to stop by your wiki and reformat your tables?  I certainly wouldn't.
 * It is the responsibility of each user to ensure that the content they add looks okay for other users.

For example, if you upload an image, and add it to an article like this:, it's not Wikia's problem that it doesn't fit.


 * They're supposed to be people highly trained in designing and coding pages.

Whether or not this is true, this is completely irrelevant in the context of tables and templates created by users.
