== Combining function calls ==

Considering the intended use case for this module - where a single page invokes <code>tasks</code>, <code>drafts</code> and <code>omitted</code> with the same argument - there is some efficiency to be gained by adding a new function to [[Module:Unimplemented]] that returns all three lists together, including sub headings.

This will significantly reduce the number of <code>#ask</code> queries the script performs by calling <code>language_tasks(language)</code> and <code>omitted_language_tasks(language)</code> just once per page instead of 2 or 3 times. --[[User:Jgrprior|Jgrprior]] ([[User talk:Jgrprior|talk]]) 08:31, 27 February 2023 (UTC)

: [[Module:Unimplemented]] now includes a <code>page</code> function that combines all three task lists into a single call, as described above. Parser profiling data shows the combined function to be up to half a second faster than calling three separate functions, and it consumes about 200 kB less memory.

== Improve output formatting ==

We currently output tasks as continuous lists in a single column. Is it desirable to group tasks by their first character, and explore the possibility of a multi column layout?
