== Versions? ==
 
This article has a section on 'editions' (SE, ME, etc). But nothing on the differences between versions. Java 1.7 (and 1.8, though not yet finalized) is in some ways quite a different languages from 1.0. Does anyone think there ought to be a 'Versions' section with ''brief'' notes on the main changes (or perhaps just the language changes) in each version? These could include links to information on the relevant topic elsewhere on WP. <!-- Template:Unsigned IP --><small class="autosigned">—&nbsp;Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[Special:Contributions/86.186.147.69|86.186.147.69]] ([[User talk:86.186.147.69#top|talk]]) 21:47, 5 April 2013 (UTC)</small>

== implementation dependencies ==
 
The lead section says "designed to have as few implementation dependencies as possible". Can we add some clarification as to what this means? Are these implementation dependencies referring to implementation of the language itself (JVM) or programs written in Java?

– Per [[WP:PTOPIC]]. xtools says that [[Java]] had 94,580 views in the last 60 days, with [[Java (programming language)]] having over roughly eleven times as much views (1,041,585).

*'''Oppose 1st''', '''Support 2nd''' —&nbsp;and '''move the disambiguation page''' ([[Java (disambiguation)]]) to the basename. Primary topic swaps are often messy, especially at this magnitude. However, I generally believe there's no primary topic between • the programming language, •&nbsp;the island, and possibly • the coffee —&nbsp;and the safest bet might be to have the disambiguation page at the basename. <small>[[User:Paintspot|Paintspot Infez]] ([[User talk:Paintspot|talk]])</small> 01:05, 17 May 2022 (UTC)
*'''Strong oppose''' Java programming language move. That owuld only be a PTOPIC to a computer programmer. To a web user, it could mean JavaScript (ECMAscript) instead of JAVA. Even then it would not be the primary topic. Instead it would be either the island, or a generic term for [[coffee]] (which the programming language even acknowledges with its cup-of-coffee logo). Instead the disambiguation page should be at the primary ___location. -- [[Special:Contributions/65.92.247.17|65.92.247.17]] ([[User talk:65.92.247.17|talk]]) 02:39, 17 May 2022 (UTC)
** If the dab page is made primary, the island, programming language and coffee should be moved to the top as "may generally refer to" as a top section. -- [[Special:Contributions/65.92.247.17|65.92.247.17]] ([[User talk:65.92.247.17|talk]]) 02:41, 17 May 2022 (UTC)

*'''Oppose 1st''', '''support 2nd''', move [[Java (disambiguation)]] → [[Java]]. The programming language dominates search results and page views, and has slightly more incoming links. It seems to be the [[WP:primary topic|primary topic]] by usage around the English-speaking world. However, the island remains primary by long-term significance. Where the two criteria disagree, putting the dab at the base name serves our readers best. Even if justified, a new primary topic would break a lot of incoming external links.

*'''Comment''' - an island of 130 million people (in itself larger than all but just a handful of whole countries) and 1000s of year history may not be the primary topic? I get that we wikipedians are a bunch of early 21st century computer geeks, but a programming language is rather insignificant and transient in relation to the island of Java. --[[User:Merbabu|Merbabu]] ([[User talk:Merbabu|talk]]) 09:12, 17 May 2022 (UTC)

*'''Strong Oppose''' - this is very similar to the attempted argument that Tasmania is not in Australia - it fails to understand the larger picture and context. Java as the ___location is the primary/first level in historical and other senses, while the programming item might be something in the visual capacity of a particular audience, however this is an online encyclopedia. If it ends up with culturally narrow terms trumping the original name, by the reasoning given so far, then by precedence, a large number of current primary topics might be expected to be usurped by tangential, ephemeral subjects and topics.

*'''Oppose move of Java page''' - '''[[Talk:Java/Archive_1#Requested_Move_3|A previous discussion]]''' and '''[[Talk:Java/Archive_2#Requested_move_16_June_2018|another]]''' showing common sense and overwhelming acceptance that an island with a population bigger than Japan is the primary topic from which both the computer usage and (very American-centric) name for coffee derive their names. The island is the primary topic, refer [[WP:BIAS|Please, get up from your couch, change from your pyjamas, and go outside into the real world]].

*'''Strong Oppose''' - this has been discussed before. The island is of far greater significance and is more widely known than a computer language. <span style="text-shadow:grey 0.2em 0.2em 0.1em; class=texhtml"> [[User:Davidelit|Davidelit ]][[User talk:Davidelit|(Talk)]] </span> 10:54, 17 May 2022 (UTC)
*'''Oppose''' - Java programming language was named after Java Coffee which came from the Island Java is home to 147 odd million people. Java the programming language is being dropped from many platforms its not going to sustain the longevity of an Island with over 1000 years of history. Java programing language also contains a hat note to Javanese language the language spoken in Java and for which we have a separate Wikipedia as well. This change has been suggested to death please [[Wikipedia:Drop the stick and back slowly away from the horse carcass]].

*'''Oppose''' - this is the... 6th? of these RMs. I will simply quote my favorites from the previous ones:
:* "[https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?oldid=61259343#Requested_move_(2)_June_16,_2006 There's enough concession to geographically biased and challenged persons in this project already - the island came a long time earlier than the It term or the coffee.]"
:* "[https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?oldid=85365334#Requested_move Many Wikipedia ''editors'' are well-versed in computer technology and I expect that people who associate "Java" with the programming language are overrepresented here.]"
:* "[https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?oldid=592464329#Requested_Move_3 an island that is home to 120million people is the prime topic vs a computer language who's name is based on a nickname for coffee in turn also derived from the island.]"
: If anything, admins should ban further RMs of this specific set until either everyone is a Java programmer or the island sinks into the bottom of the ocean. Hard to tell which one will happen first. [[User:Juxlos|Juxlos]] ([[User talk:Juxlos|talk]]) 11:22, 17 May 2022 (UTC)
*'''Oppose''' 1st, '''support''' 2nd, there is no clear primary topic, the island is primary by long-term significance but not usage, the DAB is the best compromise.

*'''Oppose both'''. Because we are on the web, articles on topics related to computers often get a number of views that might otherwise seem inordinate. (In fact, arguably, this request itself is likely to receive more support on this talk page than it would have if the discussion were taking place on the island's article.) However, the island remains the primary topic. [[User:Dekimasu|Dekimasu]]<small>[[User talk:Dekimasu|よ!]]</small> 13:56, 17 May 2022 (UTC)
*'''Strong oppose'''. The island with its huge population and long history is clearly the primary topic by far. [[User:Dan Carkner|Dan Carkner]] ([[User talk:Dan Carkner|talk]]) 16:04, 17 May 2022 (UTC)
*'''Oppose both''' in spite of the page view ratio. Long-term significance should have preference here; also, for non-geeks, any move would go against [[WP:ASTONISH]]. –[[User:Austronesier|Austronesier]] ([[User talk:Austronesier|talk]]) 19:06, 17 May 2022 (UTC)

**:Views for [[C (programming language)]] track those for Java (pl) very closely. Perhaps they jump when university courses start and stop or switch between home and on-site working due to Covid.

*<s>'''Oppose''' 1st, '''support''' 2nd -- The programming language probably fails long-term significance (depending on how long you measure 'long-term' in the future direction.), but there's no clear primary topic here.

*'''Question:''' To those proposing the island is not the primary topic, if hypothetically, the programming language was not called "Java", but "California", what would you suggest is the primary topic? The US State or the computer language? Noting that if it was a country, Java island would be the '''8th largest''' in the world by population (larger than Russia, Mexico, Japan, Germany). It is also the central powerhouse of Indonesia, the fourth largest country in the world. California by comparison would be the '''38th largest country'''. --[[User:Merbabu|Merbabu]] ([[User talk:Merbabu|talk]]) 23:44, 17 May 2022 (UTC)
*:It's an interesting point to which I can't conjure a convincing answer, so I think I'll strike my above comment. The annual pageviews for California are higher than Java (programming language), but even if they weren't I'd still say California.

*::California is a region (ie. Baja, Alta, Norte, Sur, Norcal, Socal; and Gulf) and a few states. If it were a common name generic name for coffee, it would be a disambiguation page.

*'''Oppose both'''. per above. 1 million pageviews is becoming irrelevant when we talk about 147 million people, the most populous island in the entire world (more than [[Russia]]).

[[User:Bluesatellite|Bluesatellite]] ([[User talk:Bluesatellite|talk]]) 03:00, 18 May 2022 (UTC)
*'''Oppose both'''. The island is still the primary topic. The programming language was named after the coffee, which in turn was named after the island.

*'''Oppose both'''. Nobody dispute long-term significance of the island. On the other hand, as {{u|Dekimasu}} mentioned computer-related topics tend to have higher page view ratio hence it's clear example of systematic bias. Therefore long-term significance should be preferred on this case. [[User:Ckfasdf|Ckfasdf]] ([[User talk:Ckfasdf|talk]]) 14:47, 18 May 2022 (UTC)

*'''Oppose both''' The term comes from the island name, everything else (slang/type of coffee, programming languages) is derivative.

* '''Oppose both''', an island with over a 100 million residents and a long history is the primary topic with lasting relevance. Modern things named after the island or after the coffee named for the island are not close to being as significant, no matter the page views. There is also a systemic bias in that computer search queries are often biased towards computer terms.

Coming in java 25 LTS (due 2025/09/16):
The history of the security in the Java platform is very interesting, with Oracle at some time being forced with a court order to display a warning about uninstalling older version on java.com. Somehow this was not deemed important to mention here, despite the fact that the particular warning was placed prominently in the lead.
