Steven-- I'm seeing a few mentions of "4" every so often-- 1. http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/features/ has 3 mentions 2. http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/performance/ has a few mentions (please remove except for perf graph) 3. http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/technology/ has a mention in a subheadline, plus 2 more I also saw you had seen a few more "4"s in promos on the home page etc. We need to edit all those too.
Any thoughts about how we should treat the performance comparison graphic going forward? — http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/features/#highperformance & http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/performance/#app Might be weird now that we won't be comparing 3.6 to another numbered release.
I think there may be a few situations where we have to leave the number. The perf graph is an example. I think it must stay, because otherwise we have no way to compare.
Target Milestone: --- → 2.7
We are no removing the Perf graph from all pages, so this should no longer be an issue.

Well, the bug is for removing 4 from the entire site, so keeping it open because my comment above was just for the perf graph question mattej had asked in comment 1.
Putting this in the 2.8 milestone since these changes can be made, and deployed, pre Fx5 launch.
Summary: Remove all mention of "4" from mozilla.com → [fx5] Remove all mention of "4" from mozilla.com
Target Milestone: 2.7 → 2.8

Laura - are these all the mentions of "4" or do you think there are more? I suspect a lot of them could be hiding from us... Which leads me to ask Steven... Steven - is there some handy pixie-dust script you can write to ID all the "Firefox 4" mentions on Mozilla.com? That could really help us be thorough here.
A great question--I went through each page 1 by 1 with the find command ans those are what I found. There are likely more, but I tried to be as thorough as possible. Script help would be awesome!
Yeah, I should have mentioned. I did do a search across all of the PHP, HTML, and JS files and I think we've got everything. I'll double-check tomorrow.
Here's a list of all of the lines/files with "Firefox 4" in the mozilla.com code-base. Most supposed to be version specific (release notes, old whatsnew pages, etc.). The WebHero pages probably need to be updated, and the press FAQ already has a bug.
(In reply to comment #10) > The WebHero pages probably need to be updated I just had a look and we can just remove 4 from all mentions, but the intro paragraph needs a further tweak: "We don’t have to tell you how awesome Firefox is. Or how it’s made to make the Web a better place. You know it. You experience it every day. Ever since you downloaded the latest version. But not everyone is there yet. Some people just need a little nudge in the right direction. And that’s where you come in." Other than that, I think it all still works.
I believe we are about to launch the webhero campaign and we have that translated in about 15 languages, changing the strings now would probably delay the release. Is the webhero campaign going to stay or will it be online only for a few weeks? In the later case, I don't think it's worth updating the pages if they have a short life span.

In the later case, I don't think it's worth > updating the pages if they have a short life span. Agree. From a Moz.com perspective we'll be removing the Web Hero promo from the What's New page before the Fx5 launch, so site traffic to that campaign will effectively stop. Still, since it is a page that will continue to be hosted on Moz.com it will be good to remove the "4" and shift to more generic language as Matej so kindly includes in Comment 11.
Hey - talked to William. He hasn't been involved in the mozilla.com page. He's been involved in the Facebook tab. William mentioned that Greg Jost has been leading the localization for the .com version, so this would be a question for him. He did say that if we're going to change the strings on the mozilla.com version, we should also update on the facebook tab at some point, but doesn't have to be done now. He'll find a bug for that once he returns.

Removed another "Firefox 4" reference from the /m/feedback page in trunk in r90279.
Removed a test page that had Firefox 4 references from trunk in r90280.
Removed Firefox 4 reference from 4.0 firstrun tour in trunk (r90281).
Removed /firefox/comingsoon/ page that was used for Firefox 4 in trunk in r90282. We can reinstitute from SVN history if needed.
Remove unused Products page (it's redirected in .htaccess) that had Firefox 4 Beta references (r90285 in trunk).
Depends on: 663374
Removed /mobile/beta/ pages that are all redirected to /mobile/now anyhow (r90287 in trunk).
Removed "Firefox 4" reference from /firefox/fx/ page in trunk in r90289.
Removed "Firefox 4" reference from /firefox/central/ page in trunk in r90290.
Removed "Firefox 4" reference from: en-US/firefox/new/gamer/index.html en-US/firefox/new/messaging/index.html en-US/firefox/new/socialmedia/index.html en-US/firefox/new/streamer/index.html en-US/firefox/new/worker/index.html en-US/firefox/out-of-date/index.html in r90294 in trunk.
I have updated the mozilla.com Web Hero page to remove the Firefox 4 version references (r90295 in trunk). However, the Web Hero facebook page (http://mozilla.com/firefox/webhero/fb/) has many "Firefox 4" references that aren't easily replaced without addressing the rest of the text. Mostly "Upgrade to Firefox 4" type references. Perhaps dealing with the 4 version number in the Web Hero facebook page should get a bug of its own?

(In reply to comment #24) > > Perhaps dealing with the 4 version number in the Web Hero facebook page > should get a bug of its own? Sure thing--do you know who built that? Was that an SO project? I'll file a new bug now.
(In reply to comment #27) > Sure thing--do you know who built that? Was that an SO project? No, I think Craig Cook built it originally. I also see a lot of recent commits on it in the SVN log by allia.z@gmail.com. Sorry for all the bug spam on this - I should have consolidated some of these bug updates.

Localized pages were all updated in r90515 On the Firefox 3.6 whatsnew page, we have a header close to the mention of the users' version 3.6.17 saying "Firefox 4 is here", I kept this one but made it dynamic, the version number will follow our releases (ie, next week it will say Firefox 5 is here). I think that in this specific case where we incitate people to do a major upgrade, showing that their version number is smaller than the current release is beneficial to push them to upgrade. (it would be good to not close bugs that also affect locales when en-US only is done)
pushed to production r90573 That rev included changes to the 5.0 firstrun page which is released yet, so we'll need to make sure to roll out the latest version of it when it's released (testing should show this clearly). Thanks Pascal, we really should be aware of other locales.
the following urls are fine http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/fastest/ https://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/fx/ https://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/3.6/whatsnew/ https://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/features/ http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/performance/ still mentions Firefox 4 under making the web faster,Web Application Speed,Hardware Acceleration so i'm re-opening this bug
