::::But I’m not sure that simply referring to some Project Euler problem without any added value respects the requirements.

:::::I see your point - I'm not a Project Euler member and was not aware of their request re-solutions to their problems. I agree this is worrying and distasteful.
:::::However, looking at the Sum multiples of 3 and 5 task, it was created in 2013 and has thus been precendent setting for 8 years. Paddy flagged the (possible) Project Euler origin in 2013 but that didn't stop 102 languages providing solutions.<br>
:::::As far as I can see, we have three options (not that it is up to me):<br><br>
:::::* Delete all Project Euler related tasks, no matter how many solutions they have and ban such tasks in future.
:::::* Accept where we are but ban anything from Project Euler in future.
:::::* Continue in our mis-guided ways.
:::::<br>Unfortunately, I think either the first or second option should be adopted. We should certainly say no-more in future.
