Temporary accounts are a new type of account that gets automatically created when logged-out users contribute to a wiki.

Section Translation on mobile was designed to work as much as possible without requiring a user account but there may be assumptions depending on a logged-in user. Ideally, users with a temporary account should be able to use the tool to start (by searching or using suggestions), continue and publish (in any namespace) translations without issues.

This ticket is intended to test whether that is the case and capture issues found when trying to use the tool with a temporary account. The focus is on Section Translation on mobile.

Additional considerations:

• Entry points assume that anonymous editor will not access the tool
• Temporary accounts expire by no longer provide access to the user, which may result in drafts remaining unpublished for a long time (until automatically deleted).

A similar task exists for the desktop experience: T345254: Check current support for temporary accounts in Content Translation on desktop

Result: After the investigation, the follow-up adjustments are captured in T353239: Support creation of temporary users when anonymous ones reach the mobile/desktop editors in Content Translation
