The desktop and mobile browsing interfaces on Wikipedia differ substantially, and sometimes different templates are more or less suitable for a specific interface. For this reason certain templates do not display in mobile view, using the <code>class =  "nomobile"</code>

:'''As of March 2017, only the <code>"nomobile"</code>-class is implemented, and <code>"nodesktop"</code> / <code>"mobileonly"</code> classes do nothing because they are not enabled in [[MediaWiki:Common.css]] or [[MediaWiki:Mobile.css]]'''.



This template does not itself control where content is displayed. It is intended only for template documentation, to explain a template's behavior in the mobile view.
