Starting the translation of a new article on mobile will be supported in T260144: New translation: Start a new article by translating the lead section on mobile
Currently it would be less confusing to show the button temporarily disabled rather than leading to a blank page.
However, depending on the effort required, we may prefer to spend it in fixing T260144 directly.

After input from engineering, it is preferable to fix T260144 rather than applying a temporary solution since that would take a similar time than getting an initial version of the support for translating a new article.
