A general guide for method categories/protocols?

When I'm developing components -still following Seaside tutorial[1],
chapter 5- there are methods that I don't know what is the best
protocol/category[2]  for them, like `editTask' or `createNewTask'.

I'd like to know what you pro Smalltalk'ers do.

TIA,

[2] Not sure which term is correct.

PS:  For those methods that deal with rendering, I've created a category
called "rendering".

I have categorized such things under "actions" sometimes.
Or, depending on the class they would be in, under "tasks"
or "task handling"
  But thats just my taste.

Tobias and Bahman, if I may interject, when you enter a new method without
choosing a protocol beforehand, you will see in the protocol pane, 'as yet
unclassified'. If the method is an accessor or initialize, depending on the
browser you use, it may offer to categorize it automatically as 'rendering'
or 'initialize'

If it is an accessor, it should rather be classified as "accessing".
You are right, when you first create a method (_without_ having a
protocol selected beforehand), it will not be classified (->
'as yet unclassified') as Smalltalk cannot know how you want it to
be classified.
