== Please do not edit schedule dates unless you are a project driver == These dates are supposed to reflect the schedule decided, rather than being predictions of when releases might happen. Each time these dates are changed, discussions are sparked off in various forums about the new schedule. They should be left to reflect the "official" schedule, even if that is clearly out of date. When the information is out of date, people can see that it is out of date, which is better than people believing that a new schedule has been decided when it hasn't. --#REDIRECT [[User:Michaell|Michaell]] 03:57, 1 October 2010 (PDT) == ordinal numerals in release dates == http:/RapidRelease/en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calendar_date#Expressing_dates_in_spoken_Englishsays ordinal numerals (aka december 1st vs. decemer 1) etc are also proper english form to express dates in the english language. when i grew up and learned the english language, we have learned to write the numerals. i wonder why people keep forgetting them, or why some dudes make an explicit edit of this releases page just to get rid of my ordinal. wikipedia edit wars anyone? === The answer to this question === This page browsing people from different countries, who may not understand the meaning of a particular end of the word. This is table, and please, do not be offended (If I offended you) --[[User:Tro|TroCalendar]] 12:13, 2 December 2009 (UTC) === Use ISO dates instead? === The other option would be of course to use YYYY-MM-DD dates instead, which are standardized by ISO and also used by bugzilla as locale-independent representation. Anyway, not a big deal, except that the archived release listing are inconsistent in providing also the year in the date. --[[User:Rsx11m|Rsx11m]] 14:42, 2 December 2009 (UTC) - ''BTW: MediaWiki is using "day month year" for its time stamps ...'' == why deliberately wasting other peoples time ? ==once again some bright mindhttps://wiki.mozilla.org/Special:Contributions/Bo98 has removed the year from some of my edits on the releases pages (ffx4beta4). what people dont realize, that they deliberately or due to lack of sheer intelligence or simply cuz of dontcare attitude, deliberately destroy other peoples work, annoy them and drive them mad. intelligence wise its crazy to delete other peoples work in a wiki (collaboration project), as long as its not real spam or vandalism. in this particular case of the mozilla wiki, its even more insane, as people later on need, do and did re-add all the missing years and exact dates of past releases on the older archived releases pagehttps://wiki.mozilla.org/Releases/Old just dig through all the past edits on the main releases page and then check how often people remove some relevant info from other peoples post (this page is just an example, as i try to do some edits, there but i can name other countless useless tiresome and cumbersome episodes similar to this), just to make other people later reinvest time again to re-add all the years and dates to the archived releases page at a later time again. what a waste of brains and time. sweet jebuz. :( still, maybe there is actually some creative and friendly way of people make use their brainpowers before going on a rampage on already submitted valuable data in this wiki. sigh. == Gecko versions == Please indicate the Gecko version for each release so that viewers can correlate releases of Firefox, Thunderbird, SeaMonkey, etc. == Page updates == Who is responsible to update this page? Because the recent released Firefox versions still marked as being scheduled for release in April, and this is not the first time this happening. If this page is obsolete, can you please link it to a better source? Thanks. Tomer 02:00, 26 March 2011 (PDT)
