Merge proposal

There is currently an article: Object-based that covers the identical topic as this one. I propose Object-based be merged into Object-based language. MadScientistX11 (talk) 22:49, 15 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Since no one commented in several months I went ahead and did the merge. There was almost nothing worth saving in the Object-based article, it was just a stub but what it did say that was of any merit (e.g. VB is an example of an object-based language) was either in or I incorporated into this article. --MadScientistX11 (talk) 18:19, 28 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Hierarchy of object-based languages

From the article, it is unclear what a "true" object-oriented language is. In the second paragraph, JavaScript is enlisted under object-based languages that are not object-oriented. The fourth paragraph says that prototype-based languages are true object-oriented languages, like JavaScript. What is now true for JavaScript? Is it object-based in the sense that object-based is a hypernym of object-oriented? If so, how can it be a "true" OO language then?--Sae1962 (talk) 11:49, 23 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
