[edit] Re-creation

I have created a proposal for this template recreation - available here User:Kozuch/Web browsers. It is mostly rewritten the List of web browsers, but there are still few sections to add. I think it is nice to have a template that covers all web-browser articles on all pages because of easier navigation. I have no idea how the deleted template looked like though.--Kozuch (talk) 15:58, 26 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Netscape

should we really keep netscape in the list, since the "project" / browser is dead? mabdul 0=* 18:01, 30 May 2008 (UTC)

The template seems to contain browsers both past and current. Netscape's not the only one; there's also NetCaptor and the older IEs. I suppose it wouldn't make any sense to remove Netscape by itself. Maybe, if you'd like, we could somehow differentiate between live and dead browsers in the template? -Clueless (talk) 23:40, 30 May 2008 (UTC)

that sounds better: a new group that contains disconntinued browser. maybe i will doing this in the afternoon mabdul 0=* 11:03, 31 May 2008 (UTC)

Or perhaps we could format the dead ones differently (italics or non-bold, perhaps?) so that they still remain categorized by their rendering engine (i.e., Trident or Mozilla or others)? Do you think that info's useful enough to keep? -Clueless (talk) 17:19, 31 May 2008 (UTC)

that sounds better. but no matter how we made this: we should del them, mark as discontinued or extra group or something els, because so it is too unclear. we could also del the internet suits out of this template since i made a new template extra for them. at that time i expand the internet suites article! mabdul 0=* 17:26, 31 May 2008 (UTC)

Speaking of Netscape, the box now lists "Netscape 6 to 9" in the Gecko category and "Netscape 8" in the category above it... RobertM525 (talk) 19:12, 8 June 2008 (UTC)
