== Don't do this ==
Please, please, don't make showing output normative. I have noticed a trend towards this on RC, and I dislike it. In particular, the "beta" version of this template says "It is good practice to show the output of a program whenever there is output.". I disagree that this is good practice.
In particular, I consider it useless clutter to show output per-program on tasks ''where the output is specified so precisely as to be identical across all correct programs'' — the output need only be shown once, in the task description.
In other cases, I wish that it be left up to the discretion of the task, and there not be a RC-wide policy of including output. —[[User:Kevin Reid|Kevin Reid]] 21:17, 16 August 2011 (UTC)
