 * Strong oppose: Nothing inherently wrong with any of these articles, what are you getting at exactly? Streetlampguy301 (talk) 21:20, 19 April 2023 (UTC)


 * Keep. The articles included are closer in scope to Windows 98 than a hypothetical article on Firefox 98 (since the versions of Firefox in question are before Firefox changed their release model and those releases were major releases.) Skynxnex (talk) 23:12, 19 April 2023 (UTC)


 * Strong keep. To delete this article and the ones similar to it would be akin to deleting articles like Mac OS X 10.0, Windows 98, Android Eclair and numerous other articles like them. They're major releases of software and are of relative importance; as The person who loves reading stated, this will most certainly harm Wikipedia. Dawnbails (talk) 11:56, 20 April 2023 (UTC)


 * Keep all of them for now. We need to see what's going to happen with Firefox version history and Firefox early version history first. There may be a case eventually for merging these into the latter, but the general trend around Firefox version articles for the last decade has been to split them up given how long the pages were getting — so unless those version history pages are extensively cleaned up a merge is probably unwise. For the time being, these are short but well-written & well-sourced articles about browser versions that were very popular at the time of their release, and so are important to people wanting to understand the development of the web. They belong on Wikipedia. – The Fiddly Leprechaun  ·  Catch Me!  15:26, 20 April 2023 (UTC)
