We currently have two types of "live" tasks, [[Template:Task|Task]] and [[Template:Puzzle]]. I've since learned that some of the tasks under the "Puzzle" banner are classic computing questions, while others are not. I'd like to suggest an alternate taxonomy:

:: (Geh. I need to force preview on myself.) I may be able to alleviate some of that by adding the [http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:CategoryTree category tree] extension. However, most of RC's repeat contributors fall under the 'theoretical interest' area, while most looking for practical information appear to be coming in directly via search engines. People ''specifically'' looking for practical code to deal with their immediate interests aren't currently browsing through the SbPT category tree. --[[User:Short Circuit|Michael Mol]] 14:56, 20 January 2010 (UTC)
:::The category tree extension probably would help a lot as long as it doesn't take up too many system resources. How the current users act is important, but also we need to design for how we want new users to use the site. If you want the users to decide that (which I guess is the wiki way), then I guess we can go with whatever seems to fit the way they use it now and see how they react. --[[User:Mwn3d|Mwn3d]] 15:21, 20 January 2010 (UTC)
