------------------------------------+-----------------------------
On the Edit Media screen (/wp-admin/post.php?post=<id>&action=edit) in the
WordPress admin area, the right-hand sidebar (containing file metadata
like upload date, file URL, dimensions, etc.) exhibits uneven and
excessive vertical spacing between items when viewed on mobile devices.
This is not visible on desktop but becomes evident on smaller screen
widths. The spacing between elements like "Uploaded on", "Uploaded by",
"File URL", and "Download file" becomes disproportionate, affecting
usability and visual coherence.
**Steps to Reproduce:**
1. Go to Media > Library in the WordPress admin dashboard.
2. Click on any image to open the "Edit Media" screen.
3. Inspect the right sidebar on a mobile device or using browser
responsive tools.
4. Observe the excessive spacing between the elements inside the Save meta
box.
**Expected Behavior:**
All items in the sidebar should be evenly spaced and visually compact for
optimal display on small screens.
**Actual Behavior:**
There is excessive and inconsistent vertical spacing between items, making
the layout look broken or poorly styled.
