Do you know the best page or email address to tell Wikipedia about a technical glitch? (which I mentioned in the cell phone forum, about the mobile keyboard not appearing)

Their help pages etc seem more about content editing.

Not sure what you mean by "didn't help much."
That's where you post/report your potential bug.

Sounds like the problem is more likely to do with your phone - Wikipedia doesn't supply a keyboard for anything, afaik. It would be very strange if they did, since that's a function of the client device/software, not the server.

It was working until about four days ago.

Yes, and the problem may still not be with Wikipedia.

I'm aware that most likely, it's just if you use old Android, which I am.

Now it's doing something diff: The keyboard does appear but after I type one character, it displays matches for that one character, and then the keyboard disappears.

They also added a small graphic for each match item in the drop down list.
