Since what you're proposing is voluntary, I have no real problem with it, although I think it would be unfortunate to deprive people of the critical commentary made in the "backchannel" proofing messages (at least, I'm assuming they would be backchannel - please correct me if I'm wrong).
If the critical comments were posted in the article forum, then everyone would benefit - especially if the author chose to ignore the comments. If a backchannel was used, then no one would be aware of the critical comments made by SMEs, and so might use the article, thinking it was ok.

Hi Hans,
I was hoping to catch it before the release as a sidebar converstion. It has been my experience that when I draw attention to the glaring errors, the author will engage me in the Comments area and not fix his or her code.
Some of this stuff is not my mere opinion - I'll cite FIPS, ISO, etc.

Hi All,
Reference: A Console Application HTML Parser Using Microsoft's XML Technologies[^].
I've got the right margin run off thing going on. It is obvious where the problem lies - a discussion of 'Sample 5' about 2/3 the way down the article - it is "Preformatted".
However, I am not able to:
* Remove the formatting through the editor
* Toggle between HTML and WYSIWYG mode
* Save anything on the article (silently discarded)
Any help would be appreciated.
Jeff

Thinking about this last night, the Editor may be reintroducing the same mistake, which makes it appear the save is not occuring...

Fixed it... I wasn't being patient enough when switching between HTML WYSIWUG and Code View.

Plus I can't modify it. It doesn't show who created it. And I think it should show it's path as being under a certain category.
I just this if I try to modify:

I resubmitted it and at least for now it seems to be working again.

I did a search on your name and I saw this article come up.
Are there any more problems? Let me know.

Hi All,
This one is not of much consequence (unless of course you are charged with the backup and disaster recovery plan at CodeProject).
I like to keep my articles tidy (including what is stored on the back end). It would be nice to be able to delete unused items.

Was just browsing through the Links section at the very bottom of the General DotNet Articles Page (http://www.codeproject.com/dotnet/) and a lot of them point to "Page Not Found" or something similar.

It seems no one is checking them. There should be a utility that does it automatically.

An article is rendered 404 when it is moved from /useritems/ to an appropriate category and/or a similar move. At the same time, even the 404 page would be able to suggest you the location.
I think, the move operation has the issue of giving rise to 404s.

Once I voted 4 to an article which had already one with a 5. The average should have been 4.5 but it was 4.33 actually. Yet the number of votes was 2 (normal).
Is there an explanation ? Do I need glasses ?

Votes are weighted according to the voters member status. Platinum members have more weight applied to their votes than do gold, for instance.

That's OK. With the votes both of those articles are getting, they won't be around long.

There are already many unix discussion groups on the internet. Why not use one of them.
Also, please look at the top of the page on the left. Where it says "You're Visual Studio and .NET Resource" - That gives you a hint about what this website concentrates on.

Hi,
Sorry 4 using short cuts, but i think all were clear to you...
still uf you need to waste time in looking for errors in language here, then must say, programmers dont count Cosmetic errors, they are taken care of my admin/designer people. I mistakenly was discussing in similar manner.
Once again, i apologise for using Short Message Service language here in message board.
Thanks & Regards
pooja

It is simply unprofessional. I don't want to spend extra time having to translate some "short cuts". I'd rather read well formed sentences. And the English language already has recognisable and gramatically correct ways of writing shortcuts. They are called contractions and come with an apostrophe.
