We ended the fiscal year with experimental work on navigation, moving all contributory actions into their own nav and beginning to work towards a right drawer for Echo notifications. We also settled on an editing workflow that we hope to promote to stable next month.

This month, the mobile web team released a new contributory nav to all Wikimedia mobile sites, including the existing upload and watchlist star features, as well as an edit button. This means that editing (in the form of section-level markup editing) is now enabled on all mobile Wikimedia sites for logged in users. In beta, we began work on mobile notifications restyling, as well as guiders for first-time editors and uploaders.

This month we continued to improve the mobile editing feature, monitoring and triaging bugs and expanding the feature show at the section level of articles. We also released the first iteration of mobile notifications to projects where Echo is enabled (English, French, Polish, Portuguese, Hungarian, and Swedish Wikipedia, as well as and Meta). In beta, we built a new notifications treatment to be released in later months and continued working on mobile talk pages.

In September, we mostly focused on Tutorial A/B testing, Notifications overlay in Beta, and adding campaign tracking to MobileFrontend.

The mobile web team has been focussing on a variety of new features, as well as running tests and gathering metrics on new and new-ish mobile editors. The team has also been working on and will continue to work on general design enhancements to improve the user experience and make the look and feel consistent across all aspects of the mobile experience. Feature highlights from the past month include: 
 * Increased AbuseFilter support for mobile editing
 * Early experimentation around integrating VisualEditor with MobileFrontend for tablets
 * Client-side performance enhancements
 * 'Near this page' promoted to beta
 * 'Keep Going' (similar to the Growth team's 'Getting Started' feature) calls to action for new editors in beta
 * User profiles released in beta
 * The ability to 'thanks' from the watchlist moved to stable
 * Captcha support for mobile editing
