Delete This isn't even an article about a programming lanuage. Just an (incomplete) list of four languages implementing the join calculus. —Ruud 11:42, 1 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Merge Mostly a copy of what is already covered here. The extra references in this page should be merged added there. Caroliano (talk) 02:36, 2 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Comment, another merge target could be Join Java, actually this deletion candidate is better than Join Java. –Be..anyone (talk) 21:48, 4 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
I don't think Join Java is the best merge target. The join-calculus programming language interpreter was written in OCalm, so it seems to be more related to JoCaml (I improved that article adding more sources and removed the tags). It is indeed listed in the website of the original JoCaml authors. So that is another possible merge target. But I still think the above Join-calculus#Languages_based_on_the_join-calculus merge target is better. Caroliano (talk) — Preceding undated comment added 00:51, 5 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Disclaimer, unless it's impossible to miss it in practice my theoretical knowledge ends about 1990. But merging the INRIA stubs JoCaml + Join-calculus + Join-calculus (programming language) into one at least historically notable page sounds like a good plan. –Be..anyone (talk) 01:31, 5 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Merge references into the section Join-calculus#Languages based on the join-calculus. There doesn't seem to be a stand-alone join calculus programming language; rather there are implementations of the join calculus in extended languages like JoCaml and Join Java. These languages are covered in the section Join-calculus#Languages based on the join-calculus. Hence this article is at best redundant. There are some references in the article that could be usefully merged into the section. No prejudice against deletion after the reference merge. And I agree that merging JoCaml + Join-calculus + Join-calculus (programming language) into a single, more robust article make a lot of sense.. --Mark viking (talk) 09:26, 8 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
