It looks like the "Programming languages and libraries" part of the page currently yearns for encyclopedic completeness (listing any framework ever written and then not maintained for decades) instead of usefulness. Might be something to even move to a separate page.

I made 44 edits on https://www.mediawiki.org/w/index.php?title=Manual:Creating_a_bot&action=history to manually sync its content with https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Help:Creating_a_bot . (Simply diff doesn't work because of all that horrible Translate markup.)

I also made 2 edits on https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Help:Creating_a_bot to correct outdated/wrong stuff.
