Remove irrelevant MouseWheelEvent API #12565
Conversation
This PR removes the irrelevant `MouseWheelEvent` API as per the corresponding [data guidelines](https://github.com/mdn/browser-compat-data/blob/main/docs/data-guidelines.md#removal-of-irrelevant-features). The lack of current support has been confirmed by the [mdn-bcd-collector](https://mdn-bcd-collector.appspot.com) project (v3.3.0), even if the current BCD suggests support.

Was this in Edge 18? If so it's still too early to remove per guideline. |

It was not in Edge 18, I did check that! |
|
Excellent! |

What about the associated event https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/GlobalEventHandlers/onmousewheel ? Even though we redirect, could you clean up some of the internal links? e.g. might be simple enough just to turn them from links to code-only. |
|
I've opened a follow-up PR to the content repo! I'll go ahead and merge this since the main removal is complete. |
@queengooborg could you link to the corresponding content PR? It's not clear to me that the needs-content-update label was satisfied before merging. |

Certainly! The removal was done in mdn/content#9244, which had satisfied the content updates for us to be able to remove this feature. Follow-up cleanup was then done in mdn/content#9319. |

This PR removes the irrelevant
MouseWheelEventAPI as per the corresponding data guidelines. The lack of current support has been confirmed by the mdn-bcd-collector project (v3.3.0), even if the current BCD suggests support. I've also manually confirmed a lack of support by checking Chrome's and Safari's sources, and checked Edge for compatibility.
