:As far as I can tell, that categorization that I tried to do a long time ago didn't really work. It pretty much only made sense to me. I don't think these categories are ready for primetime. We shouldn't give it a link until we're sure it'll be useful for newer users. We need to make sure the categorizations make sense and also rmove the old ones that don't. --[[User:Mwn3d|Mwn3d]] 15:44, 7 May 2011 (UTC)
There is a discussion of category grouping over at [[Rosetta_Code:Village_Pump/Grouping_tasks]] --[[User:Dgamey|Dgamey]] 11:18, 18 May 2011 (UTC)
Would this be better named as "Solutions by Programming Category", rather than "Solutions by Programming Task"? --[[User:Markhobley|Markhobley]] 20:13, 5 June 2011 (UTC)
: Yes. Originally, this category was organizationally identical to [[:Category:Programming Tasks]], but evolved to what it is now. Sadly, MediaWiki doesn't support redirects in categories, and there are a ''lot'' of outside-world links to this page, so renaming the category properly is non-trivial. --[[User:Short Circuit|Michael Mol]] 23:16, 5 June 2011 (UTC)
::We could probably get most of them by editing the link in {{tmpl|task}}. I haven't looked in to any other direct links. --[[User:Mwn3d|Mwn3d]] 00:45, 6 June 2011 (UTC)
::: It's the outside-world links I'm mostly worried about. I was passing out links to this category for a couple years. --[[User:Short Circuit|Michael Mol]] 14:08, 6 June 2011 (UTC)
::MediaWiki does support redirects in categories: [[:Category:Basic]]. It doesn't support members of redirected categories being placed in the new destination category (you may have seen me correct some headers from "Javascript" to "JavaScript" even though Category:Javascript is redirected to Category:JavaScript). The members of the categories we can fix in {{tmpl|task}}. The external links we can fix with a redirect. --[[User:Mwn3d|Mwn3d]] 17:14, 14 June 2011 (UTC)
