Github user srowen commented on the issue: https://github.com/apache/spark/pull/14891 I think this kind of thing is fine to call out, but we haven't used this convention, quite, elsewhere. The APIs are all "Scala-specific" unless otherwise noted. Even then they're callable from Java, just not very conveniently. There are some methods that exist specifically to make calling from Java simpler. In other cases I've just seen this described with a sentence of prose that says this is a convenience method for Java callers. That might be more explanatory than just writing "Java-specific", because indeed even those are callable from Scala and aren't that specific to Java. I'd just note the methods that are Java-friendly, and borrow a sentence from existing doc of similar methods.
