Talk:List of JavaScript libraries

replies: text: I would be interested not so much in a pure list which, as you indicate, can simply be accessed through the category, but in a comparison like this. It would help people make an informed decision.--Adoniscik (talk) 02:03, 8 January 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Do we need this? 

message: I did not propose the merge, but I agree that something needs to be merged. I think there is some overlap between these two sections, and one or the other should be deleted and redirect to the other. The only question in my mind is whether   JavaScript libraries deserve their own listing or not. There are some unique properties of JavaScript libraries (there seems to be quite a lot, and they run entirely in clients, they have unique programming challenges) that makes me feel that there should be a separate page, but I'd like to hear if there are other opinions before I merge them. I will add some merge notices to encourage discussion.Ian Bailey 16:57, 5 August 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Split: IMO, split existing JavaScript libraries out of list of web application frameworks due to their conceptual differences. Unlike server-side frameworks, they don't directly access databases, don't use static templates but rather build the UI dynamically, they rarely have a concept of session management and they have a completely different security model. The articles should probably link to each other in their lead section though. I've been thinking of splitting these before, but haven't made an effort to do anything about it. -- intgr #%@! 18:20, 21 August 2007 (UTC)

message: Hi,
I'm involved with the php.js library (not the owner but a main developer), and think php.js has the user base to be considered noteworthy, but I'm not sure whether editing the article is permitted at Wikipedia by someone involved with the project... Thank you... 116.77.140.245 (talk) 08:45, 9 April 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: The notability criteria requires multiple independent published sources. And yeah, WP:COI says that you shouldn't edit articles about things you're directly involved in. But if it's notable, someone will probably write an article sooner or later. -- intgr [talk] 18:55, 9 April 2010 (UTC)

text: WP:COI doesn't actually prohibit contributions from those directly involved. It says this is a no, no "unless you are certain that a neutral editor would agree that your edits improve Wikipedia". So disclose your conflict and give us the facts.MartinRinehart (talk) 11:19, 26 March 2011 (UTC)

message: I'm trying to write a book chapter re JavaScript libraries. This would be a logical place to start a list of same, no?
Could we define "JavaScript library"?
Could we define "notable"?
A comparison of functionalities of notable JavaScript libraries would be most welcome. MartinRinehart (talk) 11:31, 26 March 2011 (UTC)

message: Shouldn't paper.js be on this list? Is there a reason it has been left off?  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.61.199.35 (talk) 12:57, 10 April 2013 (UTC)

message: I have for the second time removed all red links and non-article entries from this list. Please do not add any to the article. There are a few reasons for this:
* The list is a list of notable JavaScript libraries, and as such if a library is notable it should have an article: create the article first
* WP:REDYES says "Create red links everywhere they are relevant to the context" but the list supplies no context, as would be provided by a paragraph containing the link, or e.g. by the list being in a table or one of a set (List of Tour de France winners for example).
* WP:REDNOT says not to create them in navigation sections such as See also sections, but this is pretty much all see also type links
* most importantly readers should find links useful: red links are frustrating to users who expect the link to navigate somewhere, or if not the linking article to supply enough context so they can work out what should be there

message: Concerning editing and maintaining JavaScript-related articles...
=== Collaboration...===
If you are interested in collaborating on JavaScript articles or would like to see where you could help, stop by Wikipedia:WikiProject JavaScript and feel free to add your name to the participants list. Both editors and programmers are welcome.
 
=== Where to list JavaScript articles ===
We've found over 300 JavaScript-related articles so far. If you come across any others, please add them to that list. 
=== User scripts ===
The WikiProject is also taking on the organization of the Wikipedia community's user script support pages. If you are interested in helping to organize information on the user scripts (or are curious about what we are up to), let us know!
If you have need for a user script that does not 
yet exist, or you have a cool idea for a user script or gadget, you can post it at Wikipedia:User scripts/Requests. And if you are a JavaScript programmer, that's a great place to find tasks if you are bored.
=== How to report JavaScript articles in need of attention ===
If you come across a JavaScript article desperately in need of editor attention, and it's beyond your ability to handle, you can add it to our list of JavaScript-related articles that need attention.
=== Rating JavaScript articles ===
At the top of the talk page of most every JavaScript-related article is a WikiProject JavaScript template where you can record the quality class and importance of the article.  Doing so will help the community track the stage of completion and watch the highest priority articles more closely.
Thank you. The Transhumanist 01:11, 12 April 2017 (UTC)
