This article is no longer maintained, so its content might be out of date.
There is a chance that some of these articles will change because Firefox 4 is still being developed. We've waited as long as possible to update them so, hopefully, any changes will be minor.

Templates included in the top articles
Some parts of articles, like how to open the preferences window, are repeated in so many articles, that it makes sense to write those blocks once and have them inserted in articles when they are needed. We use templates for that, here is a list of the templates.
