== Watchlist ==

== How Mixtures Can Be Separated ==

At the time of writing this post, there is currently no way to access the watchlist on the Wikipedia app for iOS. The only way I can do so is opening my web browser on my phone and going on the Wikipedia website. I think it should be fixed as it’s a big annoyance to many users, including myself.

There are different ways on how mixtures can be separated. I will be going through three ways on how mixtures can be separated

No. 1: Evaporation

== Is mobile version really mobile-friendly? ==

Evaporation can be used as a separation method to separate components of a mixture with a dissolved solid in a liquid. The liquid is evaporated, meaning it is convert from its liquid state to gaseous state. This often requires heat. Once the liquid is completely evaporated, the solid is all that is left behind.

On my Android phone, the mobile version displays in such small text that I can't read it. When I rescale the page it has no effect. When I switch to the Desktop version, the text is bigger, and I can rescale it as much as I want. Am I missing something, or is the Desktop version really more mobile-friendly than the mobile version? Why create a "mobile" version which works less well on a mobile device than the Desktop version?

No. 2 distillation

:You are probably missing something, because others have not reported such a thing. Just hard to say what exactly might be going wrong. —[[User:TheDJ|Th<span style="color: green">e</span>DJ]] ([[User talk:TheDJ|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/TheDJ|contribs]]) 11:15, 13 July 2023 (UTC)

Distillation is a physical separation based on the vaporization of the different components of the mixture to be separated. Typically, a mixture is heated, vapors are produced, separated, and then condensed back into a liquid. As a result, each component can be separately recuperated in different fractions.

:Find in page is also broken on my foldable phone/tablet. There is no expand all feature... Mobile users shouldn't be forced into a crippled experience. Expand all should be default... It doesn't help at all if you have an index. [[User:Oldarney2|Oldarney2]] ([[User talk:Oldarney2|talk]]) 19:27, 15 July 2023 (UTC)

No.3 :filtration

[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/2601:203:4300:A8D0:1147:4F7B:21C0:E08D] Why is this happening? [[User:InfiniteNexus|InfiniteNexus]] ([[User talk:InfiniteNexus|talk]]) 02:01, 20 February 2024 (UTC)

When the substances in a mixture have different particle sizes, they are separated by filtration. The mixture is poured through a sieve or filter. The smaller particles slip through the holes, but the larger particles do not. [[Special:Contributions/96.43.175.21|96.43.175.21]] ([[User talk:96.43.175.21|talk]]) 14:35, 9 March 2023 (UTC)

:[[User:InfiniteNexus|InfiniteNexus]], did you find anything more on this? I found [[Phab:T347431]] suggesting it is iPhone edits, and it seems section edit buttons are now standard on the mobile interface. [[User:Chipmunkdavis|CMD]] ([[User talk:Chipmunkdavis|talk]]) 02:31, 20 March 2024 (UTC)

::I did not, but I hope this issue is resolved soon. Otherwise, a post at VPT may be warranted. [[User:InfiniteNexus|InfiniteNexus]] ([[User talk:InfiniteNexus|talk]]) 04:47, 22 March 2024 (UTC)

::: {{ping|InfiniteNexus|Chipmunkdavis}}, if either of you have any follow-up information about this, could you add it to the appropriate line in section {{alink|Tags}}? (Ditto any of the other tags you might know more about.) Thanks, [[User:Mathglot|Mathglot]] ([[User talk:Mathglot|talk]]) 21:29, 5 November 2024 (UTC)

::::I personally have not seen further instances of this bug, but I don't know if it's still happening or if it's been fixed. [[User:InfiniteNexus|InfiniteNexus]] ([[User talk:InfiniteNexus|talk]]) 20:16, 11 November 2024 (UTC)

== 65%? ==

The page states that 65% of users access WP through a mobile device, but it doesn't say when the statistic is from. Could this information be added? Possibly the statistic itself also needs to be updated.
