I also like to keep the historical info, but in order to keep my
tasks.org file clean (and save some time while building the
agenda) I keep it in a separate file. Probably the simplest way is
something like this:
#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
(setq org-archive-location "~/org/archive.org::")
#+END_SRC Now when you do not want to see something anymore, you
can press C-c C-x C-a from the org file or the agenda to move the
item to the archive.org file. Check the documentation of
org-archive-location or (info "(org) Archiving") for more details.
Best,
