Javascript Redirect to Mobile Site Broken (MobileRedirect.js?4.2 line 13)

Description

Author: tomhopper

Description:
Wikipedia pages no longer redirect to the mobile site on iPhone. Using the Wikipedia "Enable mobile version" article link does not fix the problem (https://secure.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/wiki/Wikipedia:Enable_mobile_version).

iPhone Safari error console reports the following error:
JavaScript Error on Line 13
http://bits.wikimedia.org/w/extension...ikimediaMobile/MobileRedirect.js?4.2
ReferenceError: Can't find variable: wgNamespaceNumber

Note that the "?4.2" at the end of the error line may be truncated by the iPhone display width.

The Wikipedia mobile pages are accessible manually by inserting "m." in the URI (e.g. "en.m.wikipedia.org").

Version: 1.0.0 (Android)
Severity: major

Looking at the code for MobileRedirect.js, there's clearly a closing parenthesis missing from the "if" statement.
