On mobile there is no clear way to find Section Translation. Although users may discover the tool by following a link to it or accepting an invite, they have no clue on how to find the tool again. This ticket proposes to expand the menu options available on mobile to provide access to an area where new contributions (including translations can be made):
- A "New contribution" option will be added below the current "Contributions" option, using the "pencil" icon and leading to the new view described next.
-- The menu option will have a sub-title listing some of the ways to contribute in order to anticipate to users what they will find after selecting the option. This message (in the future) can be customized based on the user to show the most relevant options.
- A new view named "New contribution" will list options to contribute.
-- The initial options provided will be the same shown at the Contributions page on desktop by Content Translation ([[ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/Pginer-WMF | example ]])
- On the mobile version of the Contributions page, a link to the "New contribution" view will be added.

This approach is intended to:
- Increase visibility to translation in a scalable way (more contribution options can be incorporated in the future).
- Improve the discoverability of translations of the current desktop placement (research suggested issues with the Contributions page location) while still remaining compatible with it (i.e., users expecting to find the options under Contributions can find their way).
# Design details
**Navigation menu with the new option**
"New contribution" option will be added below the "Contributions" one, using the pencil icon and the same text style as other options in the menu. The description text below will use a smaller font (13px) in regular weight (not bold) and the same color.
> **New contribution**
> Translations, uploads, and more
**New contributions view**
The new view uses a header similar to other full-screen dialogs and three cards to show three options to contribute (future improvements may add more as well as additional navigation aids). The whole cards are tappable, providing access to a page where a type of contribution can be made:
- "Translations" links to Special:ContentTranslation in the current wiki. It uses the "language" icon.
- "Upload media" links to [[ https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Special:UploadWizard | the Upload Wizard on Commons ]]. It uses the "upload" icon.
- "New page" links to Special:WantedPages in the current wiki. It uses the "article" icon.
Layout and styling details are described below:
