:: I guess it depends on how "nesting" is defined. I believe it is defined as a block comment within a block comment. While I see your point that an end-of-line comment can be within an end-of-line comment, I have never seen (except in this article) that called "nesting". IMO, the article should just say "Ada has end-of-line comments, started with --, and was intentionally designed not to use block comments", or equivalent wording, and give an example of an Ada comment. All the other text concerning Ada comments (eg, "designed to resemble the English language") is verbiage, IMO.

== Double-dash? or double-hypen? ==
The article reads:
<blockquote>
A double-dash ("--"), resembling an em dash, denotes comment text. </blockquote>
I suspect that "double-[[dash]]" is incorrect, with the correct statement being "double-[[hyphen]]".
But I'm not sure, so I will leave this for someone else.
