I however have plans to change the mobile site such that is functions and looks exactly like the desktop site, and also offering a reader view that can be manually selected from both platforms. That's not allowed because the mobile is made as it is for a specific reason, which is to allow lower-end phones and tablets browse the wiki without lag, and also to minimise the amount of data usage, which allows for faster loading over the slow standard of 3G.

On another note, have fun rewriting mediawiki from PHP to JavaScript, as that's basically what you'll need to do. :/

EDIT: That was only for making the mobile site look like the desktop sige. If you want to try to make a reader view, that is allowed, but keep in mind the limits of lower-end devices.
