Yes Peter, You are right. and it is not only for my case, there are some article which is there in multiple section (Except Overall Article). like Microsoft Reporting Services (Sub Reports, Charts, Parameters, Expression Editor, etc.) - jpaulino - This is in both VB.NET and ASP.NET. And,Most important this is not only the case for this month, it happens many previous monthly competition also.
Now, My understanding is that, Top 10 article is selected based on the Article tag. As per my tag goes "C#, .NET, ASP.NET, Architect, Dev, QA ". Its pickup the my article on both section and same for others.
I would like to request CP Team to at least filter the article content once before Competition start [ i.e : One Article should be in one section based on the article content.].

I have voted for both of you.

I hope you don't think I'm having a go at your article because I'm not. As it's an excellent ASP.NET article, I think it should be targetted there so that your vote doesn't get diluted too (and I've already voted for yours there).
I sincerely hope you win it. If I remember rightly, you've won twice so it would be nice to see you get the hat-trick.

Hi Pete,
Sure, if that's the way people like it, one article for one category we can do that. How do you feel about an article being nominated in Best C# and in Best Overall?
Thanks,

That's fine - the best overall should represent the best of the best. The main reason for my comment is that votes could get diluted if an article is present in two locations, and people vote for it in different locations.

I disagree with PO'H here
It would deprive a multi-topic article of the chance of winning in multiple competitions in the same month. Imagine someone writing an article on "Differences in writing ASP.NET code in C# and VB.NET" - if it's a really good write-up, he/she deserves to win in all 3 categories.

Hmmm - that's a really good point, and one I hadn't considered. My concern, from the other side, is that you get a really good article that doesn't get the votes it deserves because it's in a category that's not quite right for the content. Still, I await your article on "Differences in writing ASP.NET code in C# and VB.NET" with interest.
My declared interest here - I want to see Josh win the C# article and Abhijit win the ASP.NET article.

It seems that it[^] should have finished by now - I'm curious to find out who won.

Excellent news. I'm holding out for it being either Geoplaces or Perceptor. Both are truly outstanding examples.

1 select a message.
2 Pin an adjacent message.
3 Click on the pinned message (the way you'd close it if NOT pinned)
4 click on a 3rd message. You now have 3 open messages, only one of which is pinned.

I've seen (and reported) this before, but until now hadn't realized that step 3 was the key to making it repeatable, as opposed to a random head scratcher.

Looks like a partial fix, I had to change my routine slightly but I can still trigger it. The only change I've noticed is that when pinning in step 2 it closes the step 1 message. I can still create the 3 open messages (1 pinned) with a few more steps.
1 select a message.
2 Pin an adjacent message.
2.5 Click a second message.
3 Click on the pinned message (the way you'd close it if NOT pinned)
4 click on a 3rd message. You now have 3 open messages, only one of which is pinned.
Related to this, I've managed to get a few message headers to appear without the light orange highlight, instead being the same white as the space between headers when closed. When open the header is colored light orange instead of blue.

CP Team,
I just observed that whilst choosing 'Good Answer' in tech forums, I am getting the following response:
You voted 5. Rating now 5 (votes: 1). Message marked as answered.
I believe, the decision outlined in the latter statement may not be befitting for all questions. We should adopt that through the following channels only:
1) Moderator/Admin decision
2) Asker himself choses a particular comment as a solution to the problem.

1 Quote text from the post being replied to.
2 Paste the link via ctrl-v in the edit box. No encoding happens.
3 enter a normal keystroke (what key seems to be irrelevant)
4 past the link. This time it is encoded.

Steps to Reproduce:
1) Navigate to Soapbox 2.0 from Lounge or anywhere.
2) Now depress the CTRL key. The Link keeps toggling between Lounge and Soapbox (and the status bar toggles between lounge.aspx and 1536756.
3) Backroom is now invisible
Anyone else facing this issue?
Update: I have sent a screenshot from 'The Soapbox 2.0' page highlighting the issue to webmaster@codeproject.com.
Update: I have also verified now that 'The Backroom' is available from any of the active messages from some one's profile and 'Messages Post' link. I have also updated the subject of the message to better reflect what is breaking down and the degree of failure.
