That sounds exactly like what happened on WikiDex. Staff made a proposal for portable infoboxes because their old ones completely messed up article pages on the mobile skin, the community rejected it mostly because they didn't really care about mobile (Ciencia may correct me if he sees this thread) and because it was hard for them to get used to the portable infobox markup but because Wikia didn't want to have more than half of their users (because I don't doubt more than half of users view Wikia through mobile) see a messed-up pages on one of the most visited wikis on Wikia and therefore ruin their Wikia experience they forced the change to portable infoboxes. After a lot of edit wars (and two vandalbots somebody made to replace portable infoboxes with non-portable ones), demotion of their bureaucrat and several blocks for "disrupting FANDOM network operations" Wikia forced the change. As a result, WikiDex forked.

If you have complaints about FishTank, I think it's better if you send them through Special:Contact/general. If you have suggestions on how to improve the Mercury skin, I think you should also send them there so they have a support ticket to refer engineers to. Out of interest, though, how do you expect the engineers to implement the Mercury skin to convert this tabber madness into something portable?
