Ensure change is communicated appropriately.

@MaxSem, that search finds all pages that contain "mobile.css", not all pages that are named "mobile.css".

Those mwgrep results seem suspicious for sure. I don't see metawiki or enwiki listed, but both https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MediaWiki:Mobile.css and https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/MediaWiki:Mobile.css exist.

Write a simple maintenance script that moves MediaWiki:Mobile.css to MediaWiki:Minerva.css? We even have CSS redirects now in case someone was including the page manually.

It's probably useful to have a mobile.css as this can apply skin agnostic changes to various mobile skins and use minerva.css for the skin specific use cases. Right now since mobile skins are not configurable by user preference (they could be) it doesn't make much sense but architecturally it's correct.
Any skin can operate in mobile mode for example https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barack_Obama?useskin=vector (see desktop link in footer) so I'm declining this task.
