Article needs a lot of work
Line 73:
 
In the original Self paper the name of the language used the small caps typographic convention for the main title and in the text. This was also done in most other papers by the Self group. So the "S" was indeed a capital letter but the "elf" only seemed so if you were distracted or wanted to reproduce that appearance with a typewriter or some similarly limited medium. --[[User:Jecel|Jecel]] 00:33, 20 July 2006 (UTC)
 
== Article needs a lot of work ==
 
 
Issues:
 
* It's completely unsourced.
* It reads somewhat like advocacy for the language.
* Much material is redundant with, and/or more appropriate for, [[Prototype-based programming]].
* The tone is more like a tutorial/HOWTO than an encyclopedia article.
* Quite a bit of interesting material, such as [[polymorphic inline cache]]s, is omitted.
 
I'll start addressing these as I have time to do so. Other editors of the article might do this as well.
