::::::: (replying to the newer text): I read the requirement: ''Sort most popular programming languages based in number of members in Rosetta Code categories ...'' exactly as stated. I saw no need to judge that requirement and conclude that he meant anything different than other what he wrote. The word '''popularity''' was clearly defined within the same sentence, and even stated where to get the needed data. -- [[User:Gerard Schildberger|Gerard Schildberger]] ([[User talk:Gerard Schildberger|talk]]) 04:58, 28 May 2015 (UTC)
::::::::Gerard if you look at the history tab I did NOT change my post AFTER you posted. You said "Please don't do major editing to your text '''after''' I have replied/responded to it". That did not happen. I'm free to edit my post before anyone else has replied to it. The time stamp between my first and second edit was all of 5 minutes, I was still working on it! -- [[User:3havj7t3nps8z8wij3g9|3havj7t3nps8z8wij3g9]] ([[User talk:3havj7t3nps8z8wij3g9|talk]]) 14:11, 28 May 2015 (UTC)
: Even so, I took the ('''original''') task's description/requirements from the task, not it's discussion/talk page, or for that matter, some expectation. I would have expected that the task's requirements and/or description would be discussed first (at least by the original author of the Rosetta Code task) before it was changed. The task still states (and implies) that popularity is based on the number of members in (from) the category page, and I used (for the REXX version) the ''languages'' page to filter out the non-language entries from the category page. That may not be what some expectations are, but that is what I used when I entered the REXX language entry. I don't use the ''title'' for a task's requirement, only the task's (requirements) text. -- [[User:Gerard Schildberger|Gerard Schildberger]] ([[User talk:Gerard Schildberger|talk]]) 02:14, 28 May 2015 (UTC)
::Yeah that's fine and understood. It's not your fault. Many people have seen the flaw in the task description section and programmed according to "popularity" and not "members". -- [[User:3havj7t3nps8z8wij3g9|3havj7t3nps8z8wij3g9]] ([[User talk:3havj7t3nps8z8wij3g9|talk]]) 04:13, 28 May 2015 (UTC)
