: That's all I can think of at the moment, but I am sure that there's other possibilities. --[[User:Rdm|Rdm]] 13:13, 15 October 2012 (UTC)
:: I think rating the task manually is the best: beginner, intermediate, advanced, or 1 star, 2 stars, 3 stars. If you do want to automate it, then the correlation between the number of contributions and the amount of time (perhaps months) a task has been published is probably the best measure. Put up a simple task and you'll get lots of contributions, put up a more difficult one and you'll get fewer. [[User:Fwend|Fwend]] 11:01, 15 February 2013 (UTC)
::: There's some justice to that, especially in the context of inadequately described and/or ambiguous tasks. That said, tasks often undergo revision, and there can be other influences on task implementation (such as publicity). --[[User:Rdm|Rdm]] 13:33, 15 February 2013 (UTC)
