• curprev 17:1717:17, 17 October 2025 Wukuendo talk contribs 17,709 bytes +8 Reworded to be a more agreeable statement for available options undo
• curprev 16:1716:17, 17 October 2025 Wukuendo talk contribs 17,701 bytes −188 (1) Better to use secondary sources (2) Those 4 are the "present supported options" that can be used (3) Autofree is used by various V projects and developers. (4) Previous sentence was oddly worded (5) Inappropriate to make absolutist statements, inject negative framing, or show a lack of impartiality in the edit summaries (check your talk).. undo
• curprev 15:3915:39, 17 October 2025 Sirfurboy talk contribs 17,889 bytes +179 restore the source that confirms the status. Use the exact wording of the source, although nothing wrong with "experimental". Again autofree does not work. The language here should not suggest it does. Experimental was supposed to show that it could be tried out, but since you have removed that, we'll stick to work in progress, per the source. undo
• curprev 14:4314:43, 17 October 2025 Wukuendo talk contribs 17,710 bytes −159 (1) That it is 1 of the 4 options is already stated (2) Beta is already stated from the lead and is linked for those who do not know what it means (3) Autofree is supported by the language, included, and used (4) "Experimental option" of options is nonsensical (5) Making disparaging remarks and lack of impartiality is inappropriate undo
• curprev 13:4313:43, 17 October 2025 Sirfurboy talk contribs 17,869 bytes +181 →Memory management: Autofree is a WIP and using it creates crashy code and memory leaks. It is incorrect to say the language supports this. The intention is that it will, but it does not. There appear to be no papers on how autofree works - part of the general notability issue of this language. If it worked, there would be academic interest. undo
• curprev 12:5912:59, 17 October 2025 Wukuendo talk contribs 17,688 bytes +134 Updated memory management section undo
• curprev 12:4012:40, 17 October 2025 Wukuendo talk contribs 17,554 bytes −211 (1) Focus kept on what options are available (2) Existence of Autofree is verifiable by references given above (3) Removal of dispute for either side of the argument (4) That language is in beta, already stated in lead undo
• curprev 11:3111:31, 17 October 2025 Wukuendo talk contribs 17,765 bytes +185 Added of references undo
• curprev 11:2111:21, 17 October 2025 Wukuendo talk contribs 17,580 bytes +351 (1) Bias or belief against perceived usefulness, should not be used to contradict industry acceptance, popularity, or being the most recognized rankings for languages (2) "Tiobe Index, a world-recognized authority" -- www.bitdegree.org (from among recognizing sites) (3) TIOBE used in similar ways in other programming articles undo
• curprev 10:3010:30, 17 October 2025 Sirfurboy talk contribs 17,229 bytes +6 →History: +being. It hasn't been developed since it has no release (and despite the beta label, features are actively being added). undo
• curprev 10:2710:27, 17 October 2025 Wukuendo talk contribs 17,223 bytes −196 (1) Use of "in development" and "developed through" is redundant (especially since beta already used in the lead) (2) Use of secondary sources are considered better undo

• curprev 12:1312:13, 13 October 2025 Sirfurboy talk contribs 17,010 bytes −320 →History: Not a useful measure. TIOBE index is a measure of how much the tracked languages are being talked about. It does not represent actual penetration, is only a abre estimation of language popularity, and has nothing to say on how mcuh code is written in the language. undo
