      Make VW mobile Friendly

      70% of my users (and rising) is using a mobile device. Mostly small screens. And they are used to very friendly user interfaces (Facebook, Gmail, etc) which means that they will quickly miss content and functions if it is not clearly in their face. They will get confused and leave if the user interface or functionality is even a bit complex. The K.I.S.S. approach rules nowadays.

      Vaultwiki has a lot of wasted space which causes users to completely miss the page content. For example take a look at an area or book with an empty stub text. The point of the page is to show the content in the area/book. But users do not even see it and just leave what they think is an empty page. Because VW has too much wasted vertical space which pushes the real content out of view. For example the tags block is 80px in height and the empty stub text has a minimum height of 100px.

      I think this would be good to review and see where vertical space can be gained while making sure that elements can be tapped on with fingers. IMHO there are considerable improvements to be made.

      If the tags block is empty, only users who can add tags to it should be able to see the tags block. If you have noticed otherwise, let me know.

      Otherwise, I think it is reasonable to reduce the minimum height of some elements on responsive widths, especially on Books and Categories to try to make the content lists appear higher on the screen.

      Marking this as Implemented in 4.1.x on XenForo (vB does not have a responsive style).

      In 4.1.x:

      Below medium widths:
      - The minimum height of 100px is not enforced. Saves 20-80px on short pages.
      - The contributor info block is collapsed (a "Show Contributors" link appears allowing it to be expanded). Saves at least 20px on new pages with at least 1 contributor (pages with more contributors save more).
      - In XF1, the size of the article icon is reduced. This saves about 20 pixels (XF2's default style hides page-title icons on narrow widths).
      == In total, at least 60px are reduced vertically on medium widths.

      In narrow widths, if placeholder text was used, the placeholder text is hidden. This saves around 100px on very narrow widths.
      == In total, at least 160px are reduced vertically on narrow widths.
