There is no question that editing a specific piece of information (e.g. the Laps or PR or race rewards) is easier as each piece of information has a named field BUT actually finding that information is way more difficult and time-consuming than it used to be.

I don’t know about Android but on iOS (at least on my iPad Pro) finding text in Safari (in the Wiki editor) does not work. Ctrl-F works great on a PC but Safari’s find on page doesn’t work, I’ve just tried it, it looks like it should be working but it doesn’t actually go to the text. So the only way to find something is to scroll down until you find it! That used to be quick and easy with the old template but now (with 50+ events and 10 parameters per event) takes quite a while. And I’m using an iPad, I can only imagine how much more painful this must be on an iPhone! One of the reasons for this template change was that it supposedly made editing on mobile easier, I disagree.

Editing templates and adding new parameters is so much easier when using named parameters, no longer having to worry about the position and number of fields is great. But splitting a template so that each parameter is on a separate line does not help mobile editing.
