Description

The mobile web VisualEditor template editing form doesn't have a button to delete parameter value.

The only way to remove a parameter from a transclusion is to delete its text from the form field, but this is suboptimal, because it's slow, and it leaves unnecessary wikitext.

VE's desktop template editor has a button next to each field that deletes the parameter entirely. Such a button must be added to the mobile VE, too.

Thank you for reporting this, @Amire80.

Out of curiosity: what were you doing/trying to do when you noticed this?

This has been fixed by WMDE's work on the template dialog (T272368). Parameters can be removed by toggling them in the options pane, which is accessible on both desktop and mobile. The old desktop-only buttons have been removed (T275761).
