Hi Chris. I noticed this issue, and the xml bug I mention above, when working on the following article; Master Chief, CreateJS & TypeScript[^] I was using the new Article Submission Wizard.
"As beings of finite lifespan, our contributions to the sum of human knowledge is one of the greatest endeavors we can undertake and one of the defining characteristics of humanity itself"

Added to our TODO[^]

By default the Who's Who lists members in order of Article count. Change to Total Reputation and you'll find him.

It defaults to reputation for me. And from the screen shot hopefully you can make out that Griff was first and CG was showing as second when SA should be. And a simple refresh normally fixes it (F5, not the Refresh button on the page).
Article count shows a completely different group of people.
There are only 10 types of people in the world, those who understand binary and those who don't.

This member: http://www.codeproject.com/script/Membership/View.aspx?mid=10720668[^] has twice posted the same plagiarised article despite being warned the first time, so he is up for the big bye-bye...slow learner. It's in progress via Spam&Abuse, so nothing needs helping along there.
But...when I checked if he was still alive, his profile page says:

It seems that you get 100 points for posting a article; see the Member Reputation System[^].
Not sure if it is possible to implement; but would be better if the points are awarded after it has been approved.

I thought you did only get the points when it was approved - at least it always seemed that way with my ones. You certainly shouldn't get points automatically on submission - that way lies a quick exploit to Platinum Author and spam self approval!

I checked my rep points, and you right the 100 is only after first approval - not on submission...
I'm not questioning your powers of observation; I'm merely remarking upon the paradox of asking a masked man who he is. (V)

I figured it would be, otherwise you could post a partial article, delete it, and post it again.
100 repeats, and you're platinum and don't need moderation any more... An hour, if you sit down and concentrate...

It is, see below.
I will never again mention that Dalek Dave was the poster of the One Millionth Lounge Post, nor that it was complete drivel.

Oh lord, he's displaying the nipple tassles in public again. Dear sweet mercy, the crowd have just reported that he's wearing a llama-skin codpiece. They're lining up with the pitchforks as we speak.

Everyone does errors. OG was right, it was a Bug. Not in The code, but in The staff.

I think you need to look up the definition of wetware. We've just had a very disturbing glimpse into your reality.

My reality is that I just heard a bald-headed PM say "I can do that as well". After a girl from his team was adjusting her hair to a somewhat... special kind of hair style - Mind you, that dude hasn't a beard 
In addition, I automatically assumed that it got a bit creepy since Sean is involved.
