Quote: survey You do not have sufficient Reputation to vote in this survey

Where are you trying to vote?
Edit: just noticed you mentioned "survey". I'm assuming you mean the article competition survey. We restrict voting on the survey very deliberately. If we open it up then it gets abused. For other surveys we're happy to get all and sundry vote, but when it comes time to have a serious vote where reputations and prizes are at stake we need to be as careful as possible.

I get the point. What is the minimum(sufficient) requirement to have voting ability?
Don't say you must be CP citizen.

|

You said you read articles. Perhaps you could upvote the good ones and leave a few grateful comments? That will build up your rep and also be a very good thank you to the authors.

You are repeating what it's been said. My question is so clear. What is the mim requirement to have an ability to vote?
1. No. of reputation points. 1000, 2000, million etc.
2. No. of messages that need to be posted.
3. No. of years as a codeproject member.
4. I'm banned from voting article contest. If so what is the reason then?
Of course I was voting and bookmarking lot of articles which you may/may not see them. And I don't have to comment each and every articles.

Consider the possibility that Nish's response wasn't even intended to answer your question but merely provide you with a well-meant suggestion, for the reputation accumulated on your present account doesn't neccessarily suggest that you might have participated in the proposed activities to a great extent. For all I know the information you're asking for can only be given by the admins, as the restriction on voting has only recently been introduced and the amount of reputation required isn't publicly documented.

I get that. I want to know the answer not another suggestion at least to get as private email. The article content survey message doesn't tell anything except saying you don't have sufficient... which doesn't help at all.

The problem I'm addressing came up many times recently: There are members approving articles without spending any thought on it. Today, a question, probably intended for QA but mis-posted as an article, got approved as an article (ref. Approving without reading. - CodeProject[^]).
My suggestion for solving this issue:
Instead of requiring a fixed number of 10 approvals to get published, an article (or other kind of publication) in moderation requires an approval/report-ratio of X with a minimum of Z votes in total. Approvals and reports don't uniformly count as "1", but instead are weighted, based on..
(Option 1)
..the reputation of the member casting the vote. (In which way exactly I'll leave up to the admins.)
(Option 2)
..the past quality of votes of the member casting the vote.
Explanation: After an article didn't get approved because the reports weighed higher than the approvals, members having approved the article are given a malus to the weight of their future votes. As we currently don't have the problem of articles not being published because of too many false reports, the inverse case probably shouldn't lead to a bonus to the weight of future votes. Instead the vote-weight of members who were given a malus previously could recuperate over time. Members who just acquired the right to moderate articles might start out with a lower vote-weight.

The Javascript that generates the "Quote Selected Text" button in the QA Answer editor has some issues with quoting.
The generated button displays with the text:
');" class="button"> Quote Selected Text
The generated HTML is this (as displayed! I had to change the actual quoting so it would display here as the actual HTML):
<button onclick="return QuoteText('<ASP:Literal ID=" quotebuttonname"="" runat="server">');" class="button"> Quote Selected Text </button>
The nested " in the onclick seems to be the issue.
The Javascript is:
<script type="text/javascript">
if (document.all||window.getSelection) {
var quoteButtonName = "%3CASP:Literal ID=\"QuoteButtonName\" runat=\"server\" /%3E";
document.write(unescape("%3Cbutton%20onclick%3D%22return%20QuoteText%28%27"));
document.write(unescape(quoteButtonName));
document.write(unescape("%27%29%3B%22%20class%3D%22button%22%3E%20%20Quote%20Selected%20Text"));
document.write(unescape("%20%20%3C/button%3E"));
}
</script>

It's too bad that there's no HTML tag that closes all tags that are still open within a div that contains this tag.
I'd call it </imaretard>
Usage would be:
<div>
<table...>
</imaretard>
</div>
and it would close the table element.

When I view my latest article, some images seem to randomly not be found (I get the broken image icon). Refreshing the page fixes it, but the next time I come back to the article, it might happen again. I thought it might just be the crappy DoD network coupled with being forced to use IE that was responsible, but it happens at home with Firefox as well. Article link:

I have noticed this sometimes during the last days for articles in moderation. Placeholder shown but right clicking for image info (with Mozilla) shows the image in the preview.

We have a sync service that ensures all images are on all sservers. It can take a short time to kick in sometimes. Let me know if you keep seeing these issues.

and nobody cares. probably why this hasn't been noticed. SOME of us work in a shop where VB is the standard...
reading the article by "Jalapeno Bob" from yesterday titled
Getting All "Special Folders" via VB.NET
link to download gives the following response
/KB/vb/1092049/SpecialFolders.zip appears to be missing on our servers. D'oh.
if i click on the 'if your download doesn't start, click here' link, big black windows cmd-looking window appears, with the following text
Ticket: (No ticket provided - possibly an error in the error-system)
Error: An error occurred in this page. The error has been recorded and the site administrator informed.
Abort, Retry, Fail?_

We love VB too. We really do. Can you please try again? There was a problem with the links in the article.

Just had a answer come up in moderation, where it had a link - which was nice and visible in yellow - but the analysis gave:
Token % spam # in ham msgs # in spam
domain:www.codeproject.com 4.40 % 4,593 73 Perhaps it should ignore links to CP?

This value will not increase the probability of being spam. In fact it will tend to reduce the probability, so why add a explicit special case.
The strength of the spam filter is that it learns what is spam based on the moderators' decisions

The issue is that spammer are hiding links in punctuation and spaces and so when it comes time to approve / reject spam, knowing that there are hidden links allows you to spot SneakySpam™

That's kinda the whole idea - a link to CP isn't spam, so it shouldn't be considered in the decision!

So when I write a formula using this code:
<div class="math">$20 \mu \cdot 5$</div>
It shows up correctly, but when I try to do an inline math formula with this code:
20 \mu \cdot 5
It wont show up.
