Prioritization and scheduling of this bug is tracked on Trello card https://trello.com/c/mkVQaFJO

On which page(s)? On which device(s)? Steps to reproduce welcome. :)

Device: Samsung Galaxy Fame smartphone

Pages: Any, as far as I can see

Steps to reproduce:
1:View article, such as "Streatham Street"
Screen layout,from top, is:

• My phone's top bar with time, battery, signal bars etc
• internet bar with search window, tabs icon, etc
• "Search Wikipedia" etc bar
• "Last edited..."
• Article title
• Bar with edit, talkpage, watch icons
• Article (starting 40mm down the 75mm screen)

2: Click on "pen" icon to edit

3: See screen with, top to bottom:

• My phone's top bar with time, battery, signal bars etc
• internet bar with search window, tabs icon, etc
• Bar saying "Editing Streatham Street" with "Next" button
• Article source, down to words "became the location for new"

4: Attempt to scroll: only very slight movement on screen

5: See screen with:

• My phone's top bar with time, battery, signal bars etc
• (note that internet bar disappears)
• Bar saying "Editing Streatham Street" with "Next" button
• text of article, from 2nd line (part of file link), to "became the location for new"
• empty space below, about 10mm (ie width of the disappeared Internet bar plus one line of article text)

6:I can scroll up and down between states 3 and 5, but cannot see anything lower in the article. I can edit what I can see. I can't edit anything else.

7: In an article with multiple sections, the same problem occurs for each section.

Fortunately a lot of my editing is stub-sorting, where I'm editing the end matter of an article and there's usually not enough stuff after the "References" section heading to cause a problem, so I can continue to do most of those edits in mobile. But for more substantial edits, it's a huge nuisance to have to remember "Must get back to Streatham Street and sort it out next time I'm on the laptop".

I hope I've explained the scenario clearly now!

These steps i have done (HTC One in Chrome for Android)

• Open http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Streatham_Street
• Click edit (near the title)

(i'm logged in and in beta mode)

• Editing and scrolling works fine :/

Can you give some more info, e.g. the browser you're using? Can you test another browser?

Thanks!

Can't reproduce with Android 4 and neither Chrome nor Firefox.

Please can you tell us which android version has your phone? Also which browser are you using?

If you don't know how to get that info this two links should help:
http://whatismyandroidversion.com/
https://www.whatismybrowser.com/

Thanks for the two links.

The first tells me Android 4.1.2 (Jelly Bean)

The second says: Android Browser 4 on Android (Jelly Bean)

I can scroll up and down articles and talk pages, no problem.

And I'm almost 100% sure that I used to be able to edit long articles/sections without this problem, until perhaps a couple of weeks ago. Hope that helps.

Pam a fix should be on this site: http://en.m.wikipedia.beta.wmflabs.org/wiki/Headings - are you able to verify the above fix is working there? If so we can get it pushed to English Wikipedia.

Thanks for working on this.

That page as it was didn't test the problem as none of the sections were long, so I edited section YOO YO to test ... and the problem seems to be more or less solved. When I go to section YOO YO and try to edit it, initially my scrolling doesn't work but after a couple of tries, on the third attempt it scrolls OK and I can edit. This seems reproducible at the moment. I've got quite a poor wifi signal and a pretty low-grade phone, if that might signify anything.
