tr.wikiMedia.org redirects to tr.m.wikiPedia.org
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

tr.wikimedia.org is the website of Wikimedia Turkey chapter.

If I enter this site from a laptop, everything is fine.

If I enter this website from a mobile phone, it shows the Wikimedia Turkey chapter for a couple of second, but then reloads and shows the mobile site of the Turkish Wikipedia - tr.m.wikiPedia.org .

I tried this on Android 2.3.4 with the stock browser and with Firefox.

Trying with the default browser of a stock Nokia N950, and with Firefox 14(?) on it I cannot reproduce the problem. I also tried with a Nokia Lumia 800 and default Microsoft Internet Explorer on it, cannot reproduce either.

Hi Amir, the redirect was mentioned and blamed on zhwiki by some people, but I replied them with worksforme too... Do you have more explanation?

You are using some pretty obscure browsers :)

Firefox 14 for Android is very old and completely different from the latest Firefox 23.

Anyway, the stock Android browser is probably the most important one to test. I could also reproduce it on Safari in iPhone 5 using crossbrowsertesting.com.

After redirecting, it is showing mobile version of wikiPedia not wikiMedia.

I tried this on Android 4.1.2 with the default browser and with Chrome for Android.

Can you get any response from webpage at http://tr.m.wikimedia.org/wiki/Ana_Sayfa ? I couldn't enter this address even from my laptop. Is there any screenshot available?

Liangent and Andre Klapper, are you getting desktop version of Wikimedia Turkey without any redirecting on mobile OR mobile version just works fine when you try to enter?

I think the problem is that Wikimedia Turkey has not any mobile site.

Very likely, yepp.

http://tr.m.wikimedia.org/wiki/Ana_Sayfa ?

No.

Yes.

Looks like mobile sites are not set up for the chapter wikis.

Seems like bug 38799 is the underlying problem.
