Thoughts? Alternatives? --[[User:Short Circuit|Michael Mol]] 13:27, 20 January 2010 (UTC)
:Yeah I thought the task tree would work out better. I'm not sure how these categories will make tasks easier to find. A bad sorting algorithm may not be practical, but if I'm new to programming I may think it is. Most likely I think a user in that situation would try to find "sorting algorithms" if they're looking for a category. Basically I'm concerned that people who don't necessarily understand the usefulness or frequency of use of a programming problem they're working on won't be able to use a system like the one you suggested. As if they could figure out the current one...--[[User:Mwn3d|Mwn3d]] 14:46, 20 January 2010 (UTC)
:: (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)
