On mobile we continuously get bugs related to inline styles in templates. For example: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=68001
When these happen we usually spend time investigating, discover it is because of a troublesome inline style in the template and then we communicate this on the template talk page [1] However, rarely do these get replies and rarely does anything get fixed. Am I doing something wrong? Should I be posting these problems elsewhere? It seems like a lot of templates do not have active maintainers. There has been an RFC [2] open for ages that when solved I hope will lead to lots of discussions between developers and template maintainers but right now it seems even without the tools we are failing. How can we get better at making our template styles more mobile friendly?
