* Read present R.C. task descriptions that you like, and maybe follow a new one closely so you have some idea of what happens in the birth of a new task, and have some idea of the (unwritten), 'house style'.
'''Read existing task descriptions''', and model yours after ones you like. If you follow the Recent Changes feed, you can watch the creation of one, live. Alternately, you might take a look at the edit history of existing tasks (and their talk pages), to get a feel of the process and the (unwritten) "house style."

* Hang around, answer and ask questions; especially in the early days of the task.<br> This ensures that people have enough information to implement the task in other languages and to fine tune the task description as needed, to end up with something many can implement without ambiguity.
'''Hang around, answer and solicit questions''' in your task's talk pages, especially in its early days. (It may help to Watch the task's talk page, if you're so inclined) This will ensure that people have enough information to implement the task in other languages, allow you (and them) to fine tune the task description as needed, and ultimately end up with something many can implement without ambiguity.
** If you provide the site with your email address in [[Special:Preferences]], you can Watch the page, so the site will email you when it changes.
