Stop only giving binary choice between creating page or not visiting the page on mobile
Open, Needs TriagePublicFeature

Description

Feature summary:
I would like to access red links on mobile without having to create them by default.

Steps to replicate the issue:

What happens?:
Nothing (it does not bring you anywhere).

What is wrong with this?:

  • As an editor I cannot access the redlinked page without needing to create it: I may want to see all of the relevant log entries for that page or want to use WhatLinksHere from there
  • As a reader I am faced with an unhelpful binary decision: either create the page, or not visit it at all.

What should have happened instead?:

  • Remove the options because they are unhelpful
  • Bring readers directly to regular redlink without "&redlink=1#/editor/all" when a redlink is tapped.

Benefits:

  • Simplifies things for readers (no need to make decision every time a redlink is tapped)
  • Gives readers and editors the opportunity to see the log entries before creating the page
