Absolutely. I fully intend to link to the background articles. That's why I put them there, so the "main" articles will have things to link to. Smile | :)

Thanks!

I edited to add about the downvotes, just in case you missed it

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?
Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you
Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

They totally are.

Then screw those downvotes and whatsoever...

I can't follow many of your articles because the topic is beyond my knowledge, but I can still know when something is worth or well written, and yours usually are.

I think the approach you're taking makes a lot of sense. You could combine the articles, but some people just need/want the background without a lot of project-specific examples.

Hello

I want to know what's wrong with my article that has been deleted :
MELHARFI-2D-Game-Engine[^]

they send to me this message :
Thanks very much for your contribution to CodeProject. However, your article 'MELHARFI-2D-Game-Engine' in the Uncategorised Articles section at
https://www.codeproject.com/Articles/5282969/MELHARFI-2D-Game-Engine

I suppose it was because you just posted a couple of pictures and some links with very few or no explanations

Thanks very much for your message. I guess the first thing is that it seems some of your projects that were pulled in were in French. As we are a predominantly English speaking site, we ask that our content be in English.

The second thing is that sometimes Projects don't quite meet our article requirements. Although it's very understandable and easy for a Project from Github coming in to just share the project, our Project articles are meant to be the same as our regular articles. As such, CodeProject is more about code sharing rather than tool sharing. So we would ask you to make some changes to the article to discuss more how the tool works (showing and describing examples of that code) rather than telling us what it does.

CodeProject articles have a certain layout to follow, so that users can learn the most from them. Each article attempts to answer the following questions: What problem does this solution solve? How does this help someone else? How does the code actually work? What is going on inside the code snippets?

For tips on writing articles, please see this article:
A Guide To Writing Articles For Code Project[^]

Please let me know if you have further questions.

Thanks,
Sean Ewington

Thnaks to repond to me.
Documentation/Article is all in english only 3 videos are in frensh, i could delet them.
I checked the content uploaded from github to the one posted here, and i modified some sections to fit to codeproject's article.
" (showing and describing examples of that code) rather than telling us what it does"
well the wiki is huge, can't just past it here or past an example, it's not a small peace of code, it's an engine to draw things, initialization ..., i left a link to my wiki with 23 sections in my article :

Thanks very much for your response. I wouldn't say to to put the entire wiki in the article (though you could), but at the least to pick a few key components to discuss in detail would be ideal.

Thanks,

It seems that the admins explained you why they had to delete the article. Simply look through the message from the administration more attentively. I understand how much it upsets you, but this stuff happens sometimes. Cheer up!
