Mobile image upload is a huge plus thus thanks to all who made it
happen. It is allowing those who might not otherwise have be able to
get involved to do so. Just saw this image come in through the mobile
site Loading Image...

I have never seen diphtheria as it is exceedingly rare in my area of
the world. And technically this image is very hard to take. Look
forwards to mobile editing arriving.

Awesome! Maryana, Kenan, and the mobile team will be psyched to hear this.

Mobile editing is here now, on the m.wikipedia.org mobile website. You
should see a pencil icon on every section. Feedback on how it works or
doesn't for you would be most welcome, since it's only been out of beta
since the end of July.

If we make it easier for people to contribute, we're also making it easier
for people to contribute stuff we don't want.

The tradeoff is definitely worth it though.

Cheers,

Even though I should have been clearing my in-box after a week on holiday I
had to try this- Well done! Will try the commons upload app next.
