In the "Advanced mode" there is a "Categories" button at the bottom. I suspect this is not in the "normal" mode because it can be very obtrusive, and I assume not a particularly popular feature for readers. Would you like to reword your proposal to add the category feature to all mobile users, or are there improvements you'd like to see to the "Advanced mode"? The former is not something we could promise upfront (mobile web is intentionally extremely lightweight), but regardless I think this proposal needs clarification as a Categories feature does exist.

@Infovarius: I have redirected your identical proposal here. I have the same question for you: does the existing solution to show categories in "Advanced mode" work for you? See above. MusikAnimal (WMF) (talk) 23:52, 21 November 2020 (UTC)Reply[reply]
I strongly support this proposal, and displaying categories in advanced is not a solution - I didn't know this existed, and I am a reasonably heavy user of mobile view. I would amend this proposal to add - display both the categories that belong to an article, and display the category pages correctly (so if you navigate to Category:XYZ, the members of category XYZ display). -- phoebe | talk 14:34, 27 November 2020 (UTC)Reply[reply]
Support Categories are supposed to be for readers, not just editors, even though we often forget that. I think many readers would find categories useful if they knew about them (e.g. didn't have them hidden). Enabling this in mobile normal should be trivially simple if it's already in advanced mode. {{u|Sdkb}}talk 09:18, 9 December 2020 (UTC)Reply[reply]
Support had trouble with this one in the past, Glad to have some change to this. MarsInSVG (talk) 14:59, 10 December 2020 (UTC)Reply[reply]
Support; right now I have to frequently go back and forth between the mobile and desktop views. Libcub (talk) 19:56, 10 December 2020 (UTC)Reply[reply]
Oppose categories are not important or popular enough among readers to justify including them in an intentionally simplified mobile interface. They should be restricted to advanced mode. – Teratix₵ 06:28, 16 December 2020 (UTC)Reply[reply]
Support This shouldn't have been a matter of proposal in the first place, it's so self-evident. Adam78 (talk) 10:26, 17 December 2020 (UTC)Reply[reply]
Support Categories are part of the edited work. Automatic removal of them from display is against the "community" rule. If Wikimedia wants to remove Categories feature for technical reasons, then remove it consistently from all clients, but before that, consult and prepare for an amply long (eg. 5 years) phase out time.

Support This will be very useful. Wouldn't it be just a change of default settings, that will require very little development work? Amir E. Aharoni (talk) 14:59, 21 December 2020 (UTC)Reply[reply]
