;Why do you want to start a new group, instead of joining one of these existing groups?

:I want to create a seperate [[Project:WikiProject|WikiProject]] because I find [[Project:WikiProject Computing|WikiProject Computing]] too big and general and I believe that this topic, [[Portal:Computer programming|Computer Programming]] deserves its own seperate [[Project:WikiProject|WikiProject]]. On the other hand, I might just start a task force.

===Support===

<small>Also, specify whether or not you would join the project.</small>

===Questions===

Why is too big and too general a problem? Most of these existing projects are pretty quiet. There doesn't seem to be a risk of computer programming initiatives getting buried in the noise if you bring them. ~[[User:Kvng|Kvng]] ([[User talk:Kvng|talk]]) 13:16, 27 March 2020 (UTC)

::Oh, I'll just start a task force then. -[[User:RH9|RH9]] 21:51, 27 March 2020 (UTC)

Having recently revived a project that, despite the revival, may be too narrow in scope to maintain, I advise proposing a task force to one of the related projects. [[User:Philoserf|—¿philoserf?]] ([[User talk:Philoserf|talk]]) 21:35, 30 March 2020 (UTC)

::It is now a [[Project:WikiProject Computing/Computer Programming task force|task force]] of [[Project:WikiProject Computing|WikiProject Computing]] -[[User:RH9|RH9]] 00:57, 31 March 2020 (UTC)
