===Basic information===
* A task needs a few basic components. It neeeds a '''simple description of the problem'''.<br> Having a solution to the task allows you to tune the task description sosuch that the sizerun of outputstimes and/or runsize timesof outputs are reasonable.
 
* Inline references to specifically-related information.<br>Although links to offsite information do help in a task description, it is best to have enough of a description of the task on the R.C. site itself.
'''Inline references to specifically-related information''' are important. While offsite links are often necessary (if only for appropriate citation), enough cited, excerpted information should be included such that the task may still be solved.
* Sample input (where relevant; it depends on the task)
 
Where relevant, '''sample input''' should be included; it gives task solvers something to work with.
