 * Is the design shown on the screenshots here intended to be used specifically with the current mobile site design? I'm wondering how this would fit with the Athena design, which has curved edges around the search bar as well as a mostly sharp black/white/blue color scheme.
 * The page says that "Touching the search icon in each row takes the user to that article page", but it does not elaborate as to what happens when the user clicks on the text part of the row.
 * I see that the page has been changed to explain what happens, but it doesn't explain what is the point of "selecting" a row...
 * "Touching '+' adds that term to the search box." seems to mean that it actually adds the full suggestion text onto the end of the previously typed text, so that if someone is, for example, looking for "American Football League", types "Amer" and then clicks on the + icon next to "American Football", the content of the search box would then be "AmerAmerican Football", rather than "American Football ", as would be expected. The image File:Mobile search E.png seems to mirror this. I really don't see how this makes any sense.
 * I believe it would complete the first term, this is about adding additional terms. And it is true that in many cases this may not make such sense, we are investigating to what extent it would be a useful feature. heather walls 15:00, 9 February 2012 (UTC)
 * The images show the search suggestions in all unbolded text, as opposed to showing the typed characters in bold (ie user types "Fra" and the search suggestion looks like France) as we have had previously. Is this deliberate?
 * This is not deliberate, thank you for pointing it out. heather walls 15:00, 9 February 2012 (UTC)
 * Is the text bar generally visible after scrolling? Would it be perhaps fix to the top of the screen even after scrolling, or maybe clicking + would scroll the screen up to the top?
 * The text bar should always be visible (fixed). heather walls 15:00, 9 February 2012 (UTC)
 * In the "Transformation to full screen search" section, there are references to "fading in/out". Does this refer to actually visibly being more/less opaque over a certain amount of time?
 * The idea of having the icons to the left of each search suggestion represent the page's namespace is interesting, but don't understand why the space for search suggestions would display blank entry spaces as though they were mainspace pages, as indicated by File:Mobile search B.png.
 * At the moment, the Wikipedia search only surfaces mainspace pages, so this is the only possibility. In the future this might change. Right now we can just call them placeholders and this gives us room for growth. heather walls 23:00, 12 February 2012 (UTC)
