:I think the problem is that [[programming language theory]] has a lot of research that's basically pure math and not directly applied, though I agree that a lot of [[programming language]] research ''is'' applied. Dividing the field broadly into {{alink|Theoretical computer science}} and {{alink|Applied computer science}} is inherently challenging, but I'm not sure of a better way to organize {{alink|Fields}}.

Wiki Education assignment: INFO 200 Selected Topics in Information Literacy - Wikipedia
This article was the subject of a Wiki Education Foundation-supported course assignment, between 19 January 2022 and 13 May 2022. Further details are available on the course page. Student editor(s): Sh3nl0ng16 (article contribs).
Should we prioritize (move up) Applied Computer Science from Artificial Intelligence?
In the field sections, Artificial Intelligence is on 4.3, above Applied Computer Science (4.4). Should we swap their positions?
The numerical category might be just arbitrary, but I feel like Applied Computer Science should be right next to Theoretical Computer Science down, and Computer Systems could be dropped down too. So there's like a sense or prioritization.
Artificial Intelligence seems to be a more recently development in computer science, so it could be the last on the list. Ejenriquez (talk) 01:32, 1 January 2023 (UTC)
Done. I also moved § Artificial intelligence into § Applied computer science, because it seemed weird as the only top-level area. Freoh (talk) 01:44, 1 January 2023 (UTC)

@NotPeterParker:, if you have any questions about your proposed changes or would like to discuss further to gain consensus, please post here.
If I understand your concern correctly, you may be mixing up automaton with automation. From citation 3: "The discipline of computing is the systematic study of algorithmic processes that describe and transform information, their theory, analysis, design, efficiency, implementation, and application. The fundamental question underlying all of computing is, 'What can be (efficiently) automated?'"
