Specifically with regards to these JAVA questions:

<https://askubuntu.com/questions/5567/how-to-install-the-sun-java-jdk>

<https://askubuntu.com/questions/52154/how-do-i-install-the-latest-version-of-sun-java/52158#52158>

Whilst these questions and answers have been closed as a duplicate - these questions have now outdated answers that is - Sun Java has been removed from the repositories.

I've noticed that some of the answers are still being updated - however the accepted answers and some of the other answers are clearly wrong (although correct at the time of the question submission).

Should we:

1. Ignore and do nothing - the questions have been closed
2. Edit and headline the incorrect answers as "This is outdated but was historically correct when submitted"
3. Delete the answers referring to the installing SUN JAVA via the repositories.

My personal preference is point 2 - but I would welcome a community consensus. Thanks.
