Heading section on mobile devices
As shown in the screen capture below, on a smartphone the heading section with occupies almost the complete screen. The same happens on a tablet in landscape mode. It is not the case for a desktop user.

It this the design intent? Because to me it seems too heavy on a bullet list and there really isn't much to introduce what the wiki is about and why I might want to read further.

 * I believe that is the intent. Compare "Investing Advice Inspired by John Bogle" to Wikipedia's tagline in mobile view as "the free encyclopedia that anyone can edit." The "Welcome" section header is also visible at the bottom of the page - readers can scroll down to see the details. Further discussion can continue in the private wiki editor's forum. --LadyGeek 18:43, 8 January 2021 (UTC)
 * For comparison see the Wikipedia screen capture below, their major sections 'The arts', 'Biography', ... all nicely compress into a small segment of the screen and let the reader see the main 'content' area.



Discussion kept here because a) images needed to demonstrate the problem can be shown and b) it wiki discussions are best kept on the talk pages. --Peculiar Investor 20:20, 8 January 2021 (UTC)


 * Upon further review, I agree that the bullet list detracts from our mobile readers' user experience. I have:
 * Moved the content to Main page per Small wiki toolkits/Starter kit/Main page customization
 * Removed the bullet list section
 * Additionally, John Bogle's image was not displayed in mobile view. This has been corrected. The image is now visible in mobile view.
