==Is this a Task?==
Then it should follow the format of the other tasks (headings). If it is an encyclopaedic entry then it should loose the task box? --[[User:Paddy3118|Paddy3118]] 05:57, 14 July 2009 (UTC)
: It appears to be both a task and an encycloypædic entry. (Wiki pages can have multiple inheritance…) —[[User:Dkf|Donal Fellows]] 07:45, 14 July 2009 (UTC)
:: If it is a task, it should contain a clear description what the examples should do/show. --[[User:Ce|Ce]] 10:46, 18 October 2009 (UTC)
==Task Format==
The normal format for a task is to not have headings within the task description, before the langiage examples. I thought this was to keep a consistant look to the page and the table of contents.
This seems to be the only(?) task were this is not the case. Should it be changed to comply? --[[User:Paddy3118|Paddy3118]] 06:40, 1 April 2011 (UTC)
: When I originally wrote it, it was supposed to be an encyclopedic entry. Later, people added examples, and it became more task-like. I would really, really like to preserve its encyclopedic nature. Perhaps those sections can be made into subpages. For example, [[Mutex/Global]], [[Mutex/Local]], [[Mutex/Reentrant]] (which would spec coding reentrant vs non-reentrant examples), and a "see also" pointing to [[Dining philosophers]]. --[[User:Short Circuit|Michael Mol]] 12:15, 1 April 2011 (UTC)
::Should the <nowiki>{{task}}</nowiki> template be removed from the page? --[[User:Rdm|Rdm]] ([[User talk:Rdm|talk]]) 02:20, 22 July 2022 (UTC)
