Looks like it's an imported GitHub project that's incorrectly showing as an article.

I posted something similar in the B&S forum, Matthew said there is a bug involved and they are already working on it, and he asked us to point him the links, so he can add the message boards manually.

In this article at least 3 links to CP (didn't check all) showing a Error 404
EDIT:
And it contains no message board (3rd article seen today).
Before that problem only was for blogs.

That one's definitely a mutated project - the canonical URL points to GitHub.

But the links I mean are pointing to CP... does the importer change the contents? relativizing the paths?
or do you mean the "missing message board"?

I did fix the links, but they reverted to incorrect ones during the submission process. It's part of a wider range of issues that are being investigated. Please see this post.

To clarify: by "the importer", I meant the automatic process by which CodeProject imports the project from GitHub. I didn't mean you.

Hello, I spent a bunch of time yesterday answering unanswered questions and today all of my answers were deleted. I am a senior software engineer and I actually took the time to provide valid and quality answers to those questions... none of my answers were spammy. Yes, my motivation was to get to the bronze level so my profile to show links, but who cares what the motivation was... the answers provided were all quality answers... now, I come to see that all of that is deleted?!? What the heck is that and what kind of moderation is that to remove quality content like that?!?

We do.
You were spotted and reported yesterday, and the community decided that your posts were not legitimate attempts to help others. Your "answers" were all to old questions for one purpose: to gain rep. We call the "Rep point farming" and count it as a form of abuse / trolling. You even confirmed it with your post here!
And ... with a user name like yours, I think we can guess what kind of links you want to post. And that has a name as well: Spam.

I can change the name, that just happens to be the name of my company, but if that bothers you I can change it to my personal name. However, my answers were certainly legitimate! Not a single one was spammy! All were thought through and well answered! Only ONE of the answers were on an old question and that was because I came across that post in Google in dealing with a problem that I had. The rest of the answers were to recent non-answered questions! I kindly ask that you reconsider your decisions. As you can see here: User Serj Sagan - Stack Overflow[^] I am a legitimate software engineer and my intentions were well meaning... and I believe received improperly.

How can one add revision bars when updating an article? I tried going to the HTML source and tweaking it like this:
<p style="border-left: 4px solid red;">
But nothing appears.
When I preview the article, nothing appears. But when I go back to editing it, the revision bars are there, albeit broken after each paragraph and hard up against the text.

Our article editor is a little fussy. It strips out a lot of things. And our editorial guidelines don't allow bars so if an editor came across your article, they would likely remove it.
Thanks,

I guess blue text won't make it past them either!

I have downloaded the source of the FRACTINT package, a fractal generator that allows compiling the same source to run under MS-DOS, 16-bit Windows, and 32-bit X-Windows.
The writers, a group of otherwise unconnected programmers called the 'Stone Soup Programmers', have long since disbanded, and I cannot find any link to them. (They used to communicate via Compusrve (!)) They do, however, say in the program's about box that non-commercial distribution by BBS operators is encouraged.
I have performed a substantial amount of work to get the code to compile in 16-, 32-, and 64-bit Windows, removing a lot of the cruft that collected over the years.
Under the circumstances, would an article describing this (including the modified source code) be acceptable?

If my vote has any value for you... I think yes and would personally like to read it.
As long as there are not possible licences / plagiarism issues... I can't see why it would not be acceptable.

This would make an awesome article indeed.
