Remove Scroll Sepolia testnet content from the English docs - #562
Merged
Conversation
Scroll Sepolia is being shut down, so remove the testnet from the English documentation: - drop the "Scroll Sepolia Testnet" section from the contract page - drop the Sepolia network parameters, RPC providers, testnet ETH FAQ and node snapshot from the developer FAQ - delete the Testnet ETH Faucet page along with its sidebar entry and the user-guide/faucet redirect that fed it - retarget the custom gateway and ScrollMessenger guides at Ethereum mainnet / Scroll Mainnet (addresses, explorer links, bridge API) - point the Scroll Messenger, transaction fee and node guides at the mainnet endpoints only - remove the "Sepolia Resources" sidebar section, its English translation keys, the Sepolia search suggestion and the unused NetworkTabs component Left untouched: - the es/tr/zh translations, which are handled separately - historical release notes under technology/overview/scroll-upgrades, whose Sepolia mentions record when each upgrade shipped - the Scroll SDK docs, where Sepolia almost always means Ethereum Sepolia used as the L1 basechain, which is unaffected by this Note that sidebar.ts, the search suggestions and redirects.json are shared across locales, so those entries go for every language.

Deleting faucet.mdx and dropping its redirects.json entry would have 404'd ten live URLs: /developers/faucet and its four locale variants (generated from the doc collection) plus /user-guide/faucet and its four locale variants. Point both sources at /en/developers/ instead. Also drop the faucet from the support FAQ question, since there is no faucet to ask about anymore.
Addressing review feedback on #562. Keep the Scroll Sepolia section on the contracts page rather than deleting it — the addresses are useful for historical reference. It now opens with a caution telling readers the network was shut down after July 30th, 2026 and that the addresses are not for new work. The address list itself is byte-identical to what was there before. Restore the "Scroll Sepolia has already undergone this upgrade" line in transaction-fees-on-scroll and cross-domain-messaging, plus the Sepolia L1MessageQueueWithGasPriceOracle address and the Scroll Sepolia L1GasPriceOracle link. Those record what happened during the February 2024 bridge upgrade, which stays true after the shutdown. Both files are now unchanged from prod.
Thegaram's review asked to keep chain ids alongside the contract addresses. The chain id lives in the developer FAQ's network parameter table, not on the contracts page, so restore that table with the same shutdown caution and reword the question to past tense. Still gone: the Scroll Sepolia RPC provider list, the Testnet ETH section and the Sepolia node snapshot link. Those point at third-party infrastructure and build artifacts for a dead chain rather than being reference data worth preserving.
Restore both snapshot URLs, annotating the Sepolia one with the shutdown date rather than dropping it.

Description
Scroll Sepolia is being shut down, so this removes the testnet from the English documentation. Scoped to English on purpose — the es/tr/zh translations are being handled separately.
Changes
English content
developers/scroll-contracts— drop the whole "Scroll Sepolia Testnet" section (network info, contract addresses, predeploys, tokens)developers/(FAQ) — drop the Sepolia network parameters table, the Sepolia RPC provider list, the "Testnet ETH" section and the Sepolia node snapshot linkdevelopers/faucet— page deleted; it was entirely about Scroll Sepolia testnet ETH. Its sidebar entry and theuser-guide/faucet→/en/developers/faucetredirect go with it, so the redirect doesn't start pointing at a 404guides/bridge-erc20-through-the-custom-gatewayandguides/scroll-messenger-cross-chain-interaction— these were written end-to-end against Sepolia. Rather than delete two complete tutorials, they are retargeted at Ethereum mainnet / Scroll Mainnet: contract addresses swapped for their mainnet counterparts,sepolia.etherscan.io→etherscan.io, and the bridge API example moved tomainnet-api-bridge-v2l1-and-l2-bridging/the-scroll-messenger,transaction-fees-on-scroll,guides/running-a-scroll-node,guides/estimating-gas-and-tx-fees,ethereum-and-scroll-differences,technology/bridge/cross-domain-messaging,article-components— Sepolia endpoints, addresses and mentions removed or pointed at mainnetSite config (single files, so these apply to every locale)
sidebar.ts— remove the "Sepolia Resources" section and the faucet entrySearchModal.tsx— "Sepolia Testnet Contracts" search suggestion renamedNetworkTabs.astro— deleted; it hardcoded a Sepolia/Mainnet tab pair and had no remaining usagepublic/locales/en/translation.json— drop the now-unreferenced Sepolia keysLeft untouched
technology/overview/scroll-upgrades/*— the Sepolia mentions there record when each upgrade shipped to testnet, which stays true after the shutdown. One thing worth a follow-up:feynman-upgradestill carries operational Sepolia instructions (--scroll-sepoliaflag,sepolia-sequencer-proxy.scroll.io, the Sepolia S3 blob endpoint) that will stop workingen/sdk/*— Sepolia there almost always means Ethereum Sepolia used as the L1 basechain for a self-hosted chain, which is unaffected. Three spots do refer to Scroll Sepolia and could be cleaned up later:sdk-faq("defaults to the behavior seen on Scroll Sepolia"),production-deployment("Scroll's Sepolia environment" resource table), and the "a public testnet like Scroll Sepolia" line in the AWS and DigitalOcean guidesVerification
astro buildpasses — 458 pages. No new Prettier violations (31 files in this set were already non-conforming onprod, unchanged after this).Drive-by fix
guides/running-a-scroll-nodehad the mainnet and Sepolia S3 blob endpoints swapped in a comment (# scroll-mainnet : https://scroll-sepolia-blob-data...). Only the correct mainnet line remains.
