Just a little note: when editing, it's polite to include '''something''' in the summary that says what you've done -- for example, if you add a new solution to a task, it's nice to put something like "added ''language''" in the summary so that others can see what you've done. -- [[User:Eriksiers|Erik Siers]] 06:20, 3 October 2010 (UTC)

== Tasks and placeholders ==
 
I very much appreciate your work at the creation of those terminal control tasks. Note, however, that by using [[Template:Task]], a page gets registered as a task on Rosetta Code, and shows up in "tasks not implemented in language '''X'''" pages until an instance of [[Template:header]] shows up on the page, corresponding to language '''X'''. With the placeholders as they are on those terminal pages(such as the ones you have), languages are assumed by the system to be completed, even though there isn't any code. Normally, the process would be to create a task page, and only include [[Template:header]] for existing blocks of code on the page. Also, check out the recently-created [[Rosetta Code:Add a Task]] page, and see if there's anything we can do to help make it clearer and more useful.
 
Again, thanks! --[[User:Short Circuit|Michael Mol]] 22:26, 4 October 2010 (UTC)
