Why do we have two articles entitled "Keyboard Shortcuts" (http://kb.mozillazine.org/Keyboard_shortcuts and http://kb.mozillazine.org/Keyboard_Shortcuts ), plus a more complete, presumably more official article at http://www.mozilla.org/support/firefox/keyboard , PLUS the Help menu? Surely the Help menu is sufficient, and it's specific to the OS. There's no actual harm in the articles, except that they encourage users never to look at the Help menu.  --[[User:AnotherGuest.|AnotherGuest.]]  12 Feb 07

Why do we have two articles entitled "Keyboard Shortcuts" (http://kb.mozillazine.org/Keyboard_shortcuts and http://kb.mozillazine.org/Keyboard_Shortcuts ), plus a more complete, presumably more official article at http://www.mozilla.org/support/firefox/keyboard , PLUS the Help menu? Surely the Help menu is sufficient, and it's specific to the OS. There's no actual harm in the articles, except that they encourage users never to look at the Help menu. --AnotherGuest. 12 Feb 07

Redirect both to the official article. It's not necessarily bad to have our own list because we could include popular extensions and other apps, but ours aren't up to date and no one's maintaining them.--Np 23:24, 12 February 2007 (UTC)
The first article is more task oriented and provides advice, while linking to the Mozilla page for the actual list of shortcuts. I think they address different needs. I recommend getting rid of the second article and making the link to the Mozilla documentation more prominent. The help menu actually appears the least useful, its a subset of the windows section of the Mozilla web page on my system. Tanstaafl 00:39, 14 February 2007 (UTC)
