== Javascript and ECMAScript ==
There's not nearly enough mention of Javascript and ECMAScript, of which Jscript and Jscript.NET are clearly a dialect/implementation of. This article really should outline any differences that JScript has from ECMAScript 3 or 4, rather than differences between *completely* unrelated langugages like Java, C++, C#, and COBOL.
== This language is abandoned since a while back ==
The last Visual Studio version supporting it is Visual Studio 2005 [https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/72bd815a(v=vs.100).aspx], which is over a decade ago (how time flies!). So in light of that, I think the todo list on how to expand the article into comparing it with other languages and so on makes little sense. By now, JScript .NET is a curiosity at best, and Microsoft is on a wholly different path with .NET, where they have since a good while back moved on to TypeScript instead, for a much more pragmatic way of "improving Javascript" as TypeScript is a superset of Javascript (ECMAScript). If I get time to, I may sit down with this article and adapt it for these changes, until then feel free... :) -- — [[User:Northgrove|Northgrove]] 09:31, 29 November 2016 (UTC)
