I have made two new categories for [[:Category:High-level programming languages|high level]] and [[:Category:Low-level programming languages|low level]] programming language. I need some people to help organize the articles on programming language,s thanks. [[User:RyukuX|Ryuku]] ([[User talk:RyukuX|talk]]) 20:14, 12 July 2011 (UTC)
: I could see some problems with these categories: 1. How is "low-level languages" defined? 2. You added C to "low-level languages", but C is frequently referred to as a high-level language (despite its low-level nature). --[[User:Frederico1234|Frederico1234]] ([[User talk:Frederico1234|talk]]) 20:26, 12 July 2011 (UTC)
== WikiProject restructuring ==
Compared to some other WikiProjects, the WikiProjects related to computing in a broad sense have been split into a large number of small projects:

I believe this fragmentation of the community is not productive. In essence a WikiProject is just a shared talk page where people with similar interests can meet each other. This project is fairly small and inactive. Would anyone object to it being merged into [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Computer science]]? —''[[User:Ruud Koot|Ruud]]'' 10:34, 22 September 2011 (UTC)
