1336859 - Remove or archive Persona-related content on MDN

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Developer Documentation Graveyard :: Mozilla Platform, defect)

Description

[Ryan Kelly [:rfkelly]]

Persona has been shut down, so we can safely remove all the content under:

  https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/Persona

I'm not sure what the policy is for old content like that so I figured I'd better file a bug rather than try to dive in and do anything with it myself...

I think the content team's preference would be to move them to the archive, such as:

https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/Archive/Persona

Archive pages get a warning UI, like:

https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Archive

This is blocked by bug 1331643, which prevents most page moves.

I'm archiving the Persona sections for each locale that has one to https://developer.mozilla.org/<locale>/Archive/Mozilla/Persona. I'm also updating each locale's Persona zone to use the default URL instead of the custom one previously used. Tthe result is that the content is properly archived, but links to it are almost certainly broken and will need to be updated.

Languages which need to be done:

* en-US
* it
* fa
* fr
* ru

So far, English and Italian are finished. Having some strange issues with Farsi so I'm working through that.

I've done Russian and French now. All that's left is Farsi, which I'm running into issues with.

Comment 4

And Farsi has moved to https://developer.mozilla.org/fa/docs/Archive/Mozilla/Persona. All done now.
