There is no option to add Opera Mini support information in the compat tables. Who do I have to give a wedgie to, to get this added? ;-)
We started this conversation months ago and never came to a resolution. There are too many mobile browsers to include in a single compatibility table (although the current set, which I just took based on what MDN had, clearly isn't perfect). There are a few competing things here: * Not wanting to overwhelm readers with way too many columns * Not wanting to overwhelm _editors_ with way too many columns--it makes the job look impossible and can be de-motivating * Implementation-wise, it's very hard to set up the compatibility tables in ways with a variable number of columns. Figuring out how we handle mobile compatibility tables is a good topic for the hackathon.

I appreciate these points of view, but in Opera Mini's case, it will look strange not having support info for it listed, as it is a major browser. Not in the US where everyone has a smartphone and Wifi, but in places like Russia/CIS, Africa, Eastern Europe, and Asia.
I have as a topic for discussion for the hackathon to come up with a list of mobile browsers to have in our compat table. I agree that the current list is just flat out silly.
