::This looks plausible, to me. But I am somewhat leery of a task specification that refers to individual languages. It might not be completely avoidable, but I think I would be more comfortable if the task could be specified without Icon (and APL, C and J) being mentioned directly. I think that that kind of thing is fine on the task page, and of course that kind of thing is fine within the part of the page dedicated to the language, but I think that having a language reference in the task itself should raise some kind of minor warning flag if it's anything other than a historical reference.
::That said, I am wondering if this kind of page should belong to some special kind of category. Perhaps <nowiki>[[Category:Gimmick]]</nowiki>? And, if so, perhaps "Category:Gimmick" entries (or whatever you want to call them) need to follow different rules from normal tasks? --[[User:Rdm|Rdm]] 17:00, 15 August 2011 (UTC)
