Line 7:
: I strongly oppose reinstating dozens of languages inserting a statement to this page, like: “This isn’t possible, but a <tt>while</tt>-loop can achieve the same: <nowiki><</nowiki>code example>”. Well, duh!? It’s ''just'' noise. Please leave that out and use [[Template: omit from|omit from]].

:: Since you're here: 1) what was so offensive about the Axe for loop, or rather where on earth is your first new point coming from at all? <del>2) Why delete Delphi completely and just the code from Dragon?</del> 3) What suddenly changed to make that [Delphi] ''ten year old'' example completely unacceptable? There is a reason why this site has draft tasks, and you should be very cautious (and probably discuss things first) before altering a task that was reviewed and promoted to full task status a decade ago. --[[User:Petelomax|Pete Lomax]] ([[User talk:Petelomax|talk]]) 12:33, 3 February 2021 (UTC)
:::One of this site's unwritten rules (or at least I thought it was) is that you don't alter the descriptions of tasks which already have solutions ''without prior discussion'' and then set about removing implementations that don't fit.
