So you'd like to solve a task? Great! Here's a brief walkthrough on how you might do that. While you may already have a task and a language in mind, we're going to assume the language is "Ayrch", and the task is [[Hello world]]. If the language you're familiar with doesn't already have a [[:Category:Programming Languages|presence on Rosetta Code]], consider going through the motions of [[Rosetta Code:Add a Language|adding a language]]. If you don't have a task in mind, check out our [[:Category:Unimplemented_tasks_by_language|lists of unsolved tasks]]. |

Once you've added your code, hit the preview button to make sure you crossed all your T's and closed all your tags. If the language name shows up in red (a broken link), then either the language doesn't exist on the site yet (as a category), or you misspelled/mis-capitalized the name. Check your spelling against the one in [[:Category:Programming Languages]]. |
