Just to add, you can receive e-mail notifications on new bugs submitted with 'Easy' tag by going over to https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/project/profile/169/ and 'Join Project' along with 'Watch Project'. This would send notifications on other task updates as well. It would require you to have a phabricator account though.

Hi Smriti,

The "Easy" tag is becoming rarer and rarer as new tasks are coming in. This would make it pretty difficult for new developers like myself to sort through tasks to look for ones we can do. Could the community come up with something for this? It would be great if people could start adding an "Easy" tag if they think a task they come across is in fact an easy one :)
Thanks for bringing this up!
I don't have numbers whether such tasks actually become rarer (currently there are 440 open "easy" tasks in Phab [1]; 23 of these tasks were created this month [2]) but I can only second that everybody who looks at tasks in their area of interest and feels able to judge the complexity of a task is encouraged to tag tasks as "easy" [3]. The more ideas new contributors can choose from, the better!
Smriti: What is your area of interest? Let's see if we can help finding some easy tasks!
Cheers, andre
