All looked good to me. I've marked all as complete as per your
request. I have two suggestions, which I'm wasn't sure about so I
didn't add them myself:

 - on the OSX page it mentions "open the disk image". I would add "(eg
Thunderbird.x.x.x.dmg file)" although then I remembered that OSX often
hides extensions and this may not be useful.
 - on the Remove Thunderbird page, it is very literal. I would suggest
that you add a line to each OS stating something like: "If you want to
keep/backup/archive your Thunderbird mail folders, you can find them
/in/this/directory/. they look like *.mbox" (if they are mbox, sorry
haven't used TB in a while.)

Otherwise "complete"!
