According to that, the answer is yes. Look at the second column for the tick against Tip/Trick is downvoted and Tip/Trick is upvoted. It even says that the vote is weighted in the text.

I understood it the other way around - I should have to wake up before reading it probably...
The points to the author weighted, the points to the voter not...

My answer to this question: http://www.codeproject.com/Questions/1131514/Get-debit-credit-and-balance-in-datagridview-Cshar[^] contains SQL2012+ code:
SELECT ID, ITEMS_REF_NO, CR, DR,
SUM(CR - DR) OVER(ORDER BY ID
ROWS BETWEEN UNBOUNDED PRECEDING AND CURRENT ROW)
AS BAL
FROM MyTable2
The same query in SSMS has additional highlighting for ROWS, UNBOUNDED PRECEDING, and the full CURRENT ROW
Be nice if the syntax highlighter added that as well.
Loooooow priority though - it doesn't affect anything in any significant way!

The MSDN docs don't include UNBOUNDED PRECEDING, but ROW and ROWS are "Future reserved". It also looks like Microsoft hasn't updated (or published) a list of SQL 2014 or 2016 reserved words. All I can find is 2012.
I love standards.

From what I'm seeing it seems that it's a very rare situation that an article/tip does not pass moderation even if it has formatting problems, is incomplete etc. Very often a message is left to the pending article along with several reports but they still get through.
Does the moderation mechanism serve it's purpose, meaning, is it needed anymore after all?
Of course there are always the spammy wannabe articles but what if suspicious articles (containing links somewhere else than MSDN or other 'respected' sites?) would still have a moderation queue...

Rather than throwing out the moderation queue because of a few "approve-happy" moderators, surely it would be better to tighten up the requirements for being a moderator, and/or get Sean to pay a visit to the rogue moderators in whatever nightmare-inducing costume he's wearing this season, possibly accompanied by the ClueBat?

This is exactly my point A properly working moderation would be a benefit for all but at the moment it requires some work.

From the Article FAQ:
The way the moderation works is you have to receive five "Approve" items to be published, or five "Report / Needs help" items to reach a different article status. If five members Approve your article it will become live and available for all to see. If five members either "Report" or mark your article as "Needs help" your article status will become "Closed" and you will receive an email notification indicating who closed the article, why, and what to do
It seems to me that they need to increase the number of approvals AND increase the author level needed to approve from silver to gold. However, I've seen articles with as many as 20 "reports", and yet it remains in "moderation".

I'd agree to an extent, but I'd put that down to bad moderating rather than a process that isn't fit.
It still weeds out a lot of plagiarism and spam, even if some of the dross articles do get through that aren't ready yet.
Education of new moderators would probably help more than getting rid of the process.

I still argue for making approvers visible for a certain group of people, let's say Protectors, Mentors and / or very (but really very) high ranked authors... so that when such articles get approved, that reduced group of people could speak with the happy-shiny moderators.
And why not... a possibility to create a "black list", of course this only available for the staff, and take the privilege of approving to people who doesn't take care about quality and give the approvals away indiscriminately

The most interesting part is that it spells "Colourised" correctly.
