             Bug #: 30889
           Summary: Sections' "Show" buttons load random articles on
                    Blackberry browser.
           Product: Wikimedia Mobile
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: other
            Status: NEW
          Severity: critical
          Priority: Unprioritized
         Component: devices
        AssignedTo: wikibugs-l@lists.wikimedia.org
        ReportedBy: jac...@gmail.com
                CC: tf...@wikimedia.org
    Classification: Unclassified


device: Blackberry Bold 9000
operating system: v5.0.0.592
browser: Internet Browser (default Blackberry browser)
Javascript support: selected or not, doesn't matter
browser identification: Blackberry 
default view: Column or Page, doesn't matter

How to replicate: Go to an article with several sections, e.g.
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Libya>. You're taken instead to
<http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Libya>. Scroll down to the 2nd section
"History" and click the "Show" button. A random page is loaded, e.g. "Bob
Myrick", or when going back and clicking "Show" again: "Road safety audit".

What should happen instead: the section is shown when clicking the "Show"
button.

Workaround 1: The sections aren't hidden when the browser identification is set
to Firefox, but not everyone may know how to set that, and if done it leads to
logs showing more Firefox readers and less Blackberry readers, suggesting that
not enough people are using Blackberries to read the site and it's therefor not
worth fixing for them.

Workaround 2: At the bottom, the link to "View this page on regular Wikipedia"
shows all the information in all the sections.

I'm from South Africa, part of the "global south".
