Adding home screen shortcut to Wikipedia on mobile phones adds link to main page instead
Closed, DeclinedPublic

Description

I want to save a Wikipedia link to my home screen on my smartphone. When I am on the page that I want to save, I click on "Add link to homescreen" and save it. But actually, just the link to the Main Page is saved, so I always land on the Main Page when clicking on it instead of the page I wanted to save. This was tested with iOS and Safari, Android 9 and Chrome. I heard that it had worked for some time in the past.
Kind regards,
Janosh Becker
