When a homepage is not yet configured for a language all users get a message about that, and links to the documentation on how to configure one. While that is very useful for the ~0.000001% of us that are able to configure it and open a bug for it in Bugzilla, it is completely useless and very confusing for the vast majority of all users. I would suggest changing the default message to something like this: ---- Welcome to the mobile version of Wikipedia in $LANGUAGE Use the search box on the top of the page to search our $NUMBEROFARTICLES articles. Happy browsing. <small><small>No home page has been configured for this language yet. Click [$LINK here] to see how to set one up.</small></small>
Just not showing a message now. I think the minimalist page is a good thing.
