Unfortunately that's really not often the case. Desktop and mobile versions normally have quite different html - structure-wise. The underlying frameworks decides upon http request which version to deliver. I'm curious about a pure css/js solution
This used to be the case, but you can now use css media queries to target specific resolutions while using one html template. I'm thinking about applying to help but I'm not sure if I will have the right amount of time since liquipedia is a pretty big website.

Apply, and don't worry if you have the right amount of time or not.

While working for Teamliquid is awesome, it's tough to have a dream job that doesn't pay anything but a shiny icon next to your name. Liquipedia is indeed not ideal for mobile use, hope to see improvement, especially for bracket viewing!
Yes but the experience is invaluable!

Very nice opportunity! Though I am to busy programming my own work, i can't really apply for this, but I wish the best of succes/fun to the upcoming programmers.

I applied,
Responsive design is the best way to do it, while starting from scratch would be best adding responsive design to an existing layout isn't that hard.

I actually took a look at the source of the homepage for those interested in using media queries - you will have a lot of work on your hands if this is a pure css project.
A lot of tables/divs do not have ids or even classes. That means you will probably have to use n-th child selectors to find each element starting from very high up. There are a lot of other minor oddities in the page as well. With some javascript, this probably could be fixed (iterating over ever element and assigning ids), but otherwise I don't know what to say if this is a pure front end approach to solving the problem.
I was going to volunteer, and I still might but I kind of am afraid of what I will be signing up for lol.

http://wiki.teamliquid.net/starcraft2/index.php?title=Template:Infobox_Player_2&action=edit this for example creates a table that's used on many pages, it can be given id, which can even differ depending on variables entered into it etc.

right also the layout isn't that "advanced" that It would be remade in proper HTML5/Divs to make it work better with media queries in less time then going thru everything and adding classes/ids

They can defiantely be the same. It's called responsive web design.

I've never said it's not possible. I know it is. But I've been working on different mobile views using jQuery mobile - otherwise I would have already gladly applyed to help out TL

Why would anyone do this for free? And yes, all CSS would be the way to go with this. Anyone who argues this fact really isn't knowledgeable on how requests are sent. Furthermore the difficulty isn't very high, but rather time consuming looking at the source.

I think there are many reasons why people would do this for free but I can only speak about why I've contributed to Liquipedia "for free". I got into esports pretty late, around the beta for Wings, and after a few months I found out about TeamLiquid and soon realized that the whole of TL is essentially built up around volunteers. People write for free, people contribute to Liquipedia for free, people write great regular forum posts that get people appreciate the competitions more, or enjoy being part of the community even more, people volunteer to make regular online tournaments, people volunteered in making good looking graphics for the news posts and the site at large. And realizing this I felt that I wanted to contribute too. To help build this community, make it grow, get more people into it, with a very low threshold of entry—monetarily speaking. If we, as a community, want people to get paid for the things they contribute we need to start to pay more.

I know the applications are closed. But I would like to say to the current developers that making a responsive design on this template is not easy. You should remove all those table structures in the code... Also you don't need Html5, CSS3 only can make a responsive website.
I think you should also check this out.. validator.w3.org

This position is for Liquipedia not Teamliquid.net which is almost the same conflicts a lot of tables and such
|
Not sure if I am too late on this. I would like to apply. Are you all still looking for some help in this area?

The warning of bumping an old thread could have been indicative of this... but thanks for showing interest in this area. There are other ways that Liquipedia could use help from people that know HTML/CSS though.
