:::: I'm pretty much ambivalent about it. It probably shouldn't be a Task; like Petelomax++ says, it (almost by definition) isn't really ''useful'' information. Besides, the definition of what counts as an "Easter egg" is pretty vague. For instance: a lot of what the Python entry counts as "Easter eggs" don't seem to be part of the core functionality; nearly all require importing some module, and an awful lot of it comes across as religious dogma rather than "a nominally amusing undocumented function/feature" (to me at least). And Raku violates most of them either incidentally or as a core principal. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
 
:::: I am mildly against leaving it as a stand alone page, especially if it uses the task header markup on it. ''Anything'' thethat uses the <nowiki>=={{header|whatever}}==</nowiki> template gets counted as a task entry no matter if it is on a "Task" page or not. Not just by my summarizing scripts, but by the Rosettacode parsing logic, so they show up in the individual language category page as "completed tasks". I suppose I could add logic to my scripts to filter them out again but it will turn a script doing a single database request into one doing a database request and then another 812 requests for each language to get accurate filtering. Really, IMO, if someone feels strongly it should be available, they should put it on the individual language Category page. If we DO elect to keep it, I may want to look into generating a custom template for non tasks. --[[User:Thundergnat|Thundergnat]] ([[User talk:Thundergnat|talk]]) 21:37, 8 January 2021 (UTC)
