[edit] Mozilla (disambiguation)

I moved disambiguation back to Mozilla, and expanded so that the newbies will know more about the various use of "Mozilla" without visiting every articles. It is now similar to the Netscape article. minghong 17:25, 11 Jun 2005 (UTC)

• Just redirect it back to Mozilla then. No need for vfd.Dunc|☺ 18:42, 11 Jun 2005 (UTC)
• Although, there really isn't any need to keep this page as a redirect now; it's not something anybody is likely to type in directly, and there doesn't seem to be anybody linking to it. Delete.
• Redirect. Kappa 21:07, 11 Jun 2005 (UTC)
• Keep. I don't think this is an improvement at all. Almost without exception, references to Mozilla are to the current Mozilla browser, and this should be the primary topic of Mozilla. You have split off Mozilla Application Suite (which was formerly a redirect to Mozilla with material from Mozilla, and this probably breaks the GFDL. Put the other stuff in a separate article if you like, but really when I type Mozilla I expect to see an article about a piece of software, not an essay about the history of the use of the word. --Tony Sidaway|Talk 23:21, 11 Jun 2005 (UTC)
  • The reason why you don't see a browser in Mozilla is the same as that in Netscape. Both the word "Mozilla" and "Netscape" has been used for too many things. In fact, "Mozilla" is now turning into an adjective for Mozilla technologies and related stuffs... Also, since there will be no Mozilla 1.8, I think it is a good time to move the browser away from the Mozilla article. --minghong 06:22, 12 Jun 2005 (UTC)
• Keep as per Tony. JamesBurns 05:27, 12 Jun 2005 (UTC)
