: I imagine that the way you would edit this is by creating the "A..Z thing" in the editable part of [[:Category:Programming_Tasks]]. I think you would need to use url links rather than wiki links. The urls would be like the urls you get from hitting the next button, but you would truncate the "pagefrom" parameter to a single letter. That said, there's a lot of repeated text here, so it might make sense to build a template for this purpose. Something like <nowiki>{{taskpage A}} {{taskpage B}} ...</nowiki> --[[User:Rdm|Rdm]] ([[User talk:Rdm|talk]]) 22:39, 3 November 2022 (UTC)
: I threw together an implementation and deployed it. The thumbtack icons are a bit distracting, but it's functional. And maybe at some point the template could be updated to eliminate those icons. --[[User:Rdm|Rdm]] ([[User talk:Rdm|talk]]) 23:52, 3 November 2022 (UTC)
::I went ahead and removed the external link markers. They cluttered up the link list too much IMO. --[[User:Thundergnat|Thundergnat]] ([[User talk:Thundergnat|talk]]) 06:46, 4 November 2022 (UTC)
: A possible alternate solution might be to use the [[Rosetta Code/Count examples/Full list]] page to browse tasks. It has every task (and draft task) in a scrollable, sortable list. No paging required. --[[User:Thundergnat|Thundergnat]] ([[User talk:Thundergnat|talk]]) 06:46, 4 November 2022 (UTC)
::Sometimes the simplest suggestions are the best. I'm now sitting here at a loss trying to explain to myself why I didn't bookmark that page like five years ago... --[[User:Petelomax|Petelomax]] ([[User talk:Petelomax|talk]]) 22:28, 7 November 2022 (UTC)
:::The simplest explanation for ''that'' is that 5 years ago, that page didn't exist. It's only been around for 4 years and about 7 months. On the other hand, I update it nearly every week so it shows up in the recent changes pretty much every Sunday. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ --[[User:Thundergnat|Thundergnat]] ([[User talk:Thundergnat|talk]]) 23:15, 7 November 2022 (UTC)
