I published an article about 45 minutes ago and it is still pending approval. This has never happened before, so I'm wondering if everything is in order.
Context Sensitive History. Part 2 of 2[^]
It looks like this is related to the post below.

I think this kinda establishes that the permissions system is all out of whack. You're a platinum author, and your articles shouldn't require approval before being made available..45 ACP - because shooting twice is just silly

Exactly! Permissions need a look out... lots of limitations suddenly.

At present when you click your username, your member profile page appears, and on the left hand column a Members menu Displays itself, However when you click these items the menu disappears as the page navigates away and you have to repeat the process if you want to look at something else from the list.
Can the Members menu be made a drop down from the Green Menu bar? So to the right of Help!, have My Account, and the drop down from this. This way the menu is always available regardless of where you are on the site.

I was looking at that and thought it awkward.

Very few link works for me! 
Either nothing happens on click (like My Account) or givens forbidden error (like My Uploads)..
Don't know may be under construction. But the issue reported is definitly there.

Chris,
The following items still make it disappear;
My Uploads
My Catalog items
Membership FAQ
Apart from those, working better.
Cheers

I can't view articles that need approval. Was this intended?.45 ACP - because shooting twice is just silly

I am also unable to view it from today. Looks like based on the new Reputation system, might be we don't have that status/permissions anymore such that we have a look, provide comments and try to help in organizing

It would appear that the update may have had some unintended consequences.
If you can't approve articles or edit question then WHO can?

Based on this WHO(very few people now! only high reputed editors i think), i suggested:
Might be, people having Authority of more than silver should also be given power to edit/improve the questions.modified on Saturday, March 13, 2010 7:40 AM

How does someone now increase their editor rep if they can't edit?
Also as I pointed out below a high organiser rep just means someone has up/down voted articles/posts which is not in my opinion a valid reason to allow someone to edit articles, after all that may allow someone like CSS to edit articles.

so your author/editor status is insufficient he.
|
|
|
|

Currently FAQ[^] says:
silver
◦Author
◦Authority
◦Editor
◦Organiser
can edit.
It looks like i qualify, but i am unable to edit any question,answer,pending article, etc. What say?

And I'm saying this locks out a lot of members that SHOULD be able to edit/delete. I suspect it's an unintended side-effect, but I'm gonna wait until Chris says otherwise before I start posting less-than-favorable comments..45 ACP - because shooting twice is just silly

My Organiser rank is platinum, so I should be able to edit and delete some posts in Quick Answers. Oddly enough, I don't have any of the links available. My article moderations have vanished as well.

Yeah, there's something wrong! My editor rep is virtually non existant and only silver as author, yours appears to be similar.
I'll reserve further comment until Chris posts back!Dave
