Spent about a month putting together an article in bits and pieces, and kept it flagged as work-in-progress. Now, when I'm ready to post it, it won't post. Twice I've hit the post button, and on my "My Articles" page it's still listed as "This is an unfinished article." Both times I waited 24 hours and nothing changed. Any ideas why it's stuck?

I figured it out: I forgot to select a category for the article. Duh! Once I did that it seems to be unstuck.

I invested a great deal of time getting my blog together this weekend and after hours of writing and re-writing, I finally was able to get the article sent to CodeProject. It was approved. Then I saw something pop up saying that several people said that it was copied from somewhere else, which is impossible. But regardless, I can't find those notifications anywhere. There's no record of my articles even being picked up by CodeProject, much less being approved or removed or anything else.
Where would I find that log? What could these people be talking about, regarding my blog?
My blog is https://www.SevenDaysOfSchema.com by the way.
I know there are rules but geez that was a ton of work to go through for nothing.

Oh really? 
The "Formatting ..." blog is plagiarised. A random paragraph shows up identically on MSDN: GETDATE (Transact-SQL) | Microsoft Docs[^]
The "Query ..." blog is plagiarised. Worse, it's plagiarised by typing it in which introduces spelling errors!

As has already been stated, the attribution was an image and the image was surrounded by a link, directly to the source, which is Microsoft's website. Beside that, is a link to the GitHub repository where the Microsoft documentation can be reviewed by content editors, like me. It looks like your parser removed or mangled this part of the page, but it's plainly visible if you go to my website.
This reference information is included at the bottom of every one of my example queries. I did this because some information is really handy to have available right on the page. The process of acquiring the information about Transact-SQL language constructs and SQL Server stored procedures and other objects, figuring out what objects are present in my example query, and bringing everything together on a single page so that reference information can be viewed alongside the example query without having to find information spread across multiple locations on the Microsoft site, is a process that took more than a year to complete.
You are acting as though I am the enemy. Why is that? I'm just a dude that's trying to make the world a better place. If you don't like my book review, I can care less. I didn't mean for that to get posted anyway.

Because we get far too many people who think that Google, Ctrl+A + Ctrl+C, switch to CodeProject, Ctrl+V, post is the way to become a published "author" here.
As a result, we take a zero-tolerance stance when it comes to plagiarism.
On some rare occasions, that can result in mistakes. I see you've replied to the original report, so you can discuss with Wendelius whether that's the case here.
You might also want to get @Sean-Ewington to take a look. If he's convinced it was a mistake, then he can restore your articles.

I am a volunteer Paramedic. I perform at exactly the same level when I'm being paid as when I'm not. I guess we just hold ourselves to different standards.

Still waiting for you to apologise to Nelek for your unwarranted and unacceptable abuse.

You are terrible representative of this web site. You have been dishonest, rude and showed zero respect for me, despite the olive branches I have thrown you.
I, who has posted my name, photo and contact information on my profile, website and everything I write.
You two don't even have a picture. You could be literally anybody, so there's no accountability for you statements, is there? That make you cowards in my book and even when I am wrong and I am not wrong, I don't apologize to cowards. I will apologize to people who care for loved ones with special needs, for my use of the word "retard". Besides, people with special needs are not dishonest hacks, building "reputation" off of the works of others.
Oh and all those points you guys have? Those are just points you got while "volunteering" to criticize and down vote other people's work. Why this site gives points to down vote someone's work is beyond me, but hey, this isn't StackOverflow.
I am deleting my account, so go ahead and get all that down voting in while you can. Those points could be all you guys will amount to if you don't grow up.

Remind me: which of us has called another member of this site a "retard", and suggested that they have a "tiny erection"?
And then repeatedly refused to apologise for doing so when challenged?

There you have it folks... a CodeProject reviewer who replied without bothering to read the post. Imagine that. hahaha
Run along now.

You clearly have no intention of becoming a valued member of this community. At every stage, you demand that we bend the rules to meet your own special needs. When long-standing and respected members try to help you, you resort to insults, or rants about how bad this community is, or toothless threats to delete your account.
I suggest you take a break away from your computer. Go and do something relaxing for a while. When you're ready to apologise to Nelek, and work with the community rather than against us, then feel free to come back.
If you don't feel like doing that, then go ahead and delete your account. Your abuse won't be missed.

And by the way, I did read your post. You seem to be describing yourself quite well:
Quote: You have been dishonest, rude and showed zero respect for [us], despite the olive branches [we] have thrown you.
Quote: dishonest hacks, building "reputation" off of the works of others
Says the plagiarist.
Quote: Oh and all those points you guys have? Those are just points you got while "volunteering" to criticize and down vote other people's work.
Incorrect, on so many levels.

Hi Guys,
I am finishing a new article and got an issue: Integer factorization: Revisiting the trial division algorithm[^]
This is a copy of a console, background is black and chars are white:
print 1
7
print factorial(100)
9332621544394415268169923885626670049071596826438162146859296389521759999322991
5608941463976156518286253697920827223758251185210916864000000000000000000000000
is
<pre style="background-color:black; color:white">
print 1//3+1//4
7//12
print factorial(100)
9332621544394415268169923885626670049071596826438162146859296389521759999322991

When I go to the article, it is what I see, in article editor it is different and in preview it is a third flavor.
- Does any one know how to get the correct view when published ? Should I use a snap shoot of screen ?
If you can see the article, feel free to comment any issue you see as English is not my primary language. Note that I still have to spellcheck the article.

I have question regarding the article: Morestachio. More Mustachio, less Mustache[^]. I reported it as "Extremely Poor Quality" with comments due to some spelling mistakes and grammatical errors. Here are a few examples:
> Today I want to intruduce you to Morestachio. a Fork of Mustachio.
> It worked great but had some drawbacks as every data must be prepaired in code or at least bevor it was given to the engine
> So i decided to create a Fork from it and impliment all this missing things and even some more.
> I am currently devloping a small set of usefull formatter in a lib besides the main Morestachio project.
Question are:
1. Is the Author being notify of the issue?
2. Is the CP Editor being notify of the report?
3. Why did it get approved?
4. Are we (the approval) suppose to notify the Author?
I'm not trying to criticize the Author or the article, just trying to help maintain the quality of the articles on CP and wanted to understand the process.

#1 AFAIK, yes
#2 CP-Staff should be able to see it
#3. To get help answering it, is why Chris is working on the "approved by" list. So we can spot sistematical or "friendly" approvers. (pity is, there are still some things to polish and might need a time)
#4 When getting approved, you receive an Email. (or what do you mean?)
Sad is... there is a big % of pretty bad articles, and a lot of "who are you to say what is good or bad quality" defendors.
Just keep giving your 5 cent to keep the site as qualitative as possible.

You should contact him when in moderation when you find such things. If still approved, you can contact him again and re-report it with one of the options of "needs help" so the article get flagged for the CP-Staff
If you still think it is too poor... you can / should report it as too poor, again.
Or did I missundestand your comment?

Hi,
Was this "Chris" working today, by chance? I submitted my blog and the first article was approved, then I saw got some notifications on CodeProject, but when I logged in, all of the notifications, the article, and everything are gone.
It's disheartening when you spend so long working on a blog article, only to have someone tear it down when you're done.
BTW, to dude who started this thread...
1. We are all volunteers.
2. No one intentionally posts crap on their own web site.

This system needs improving. When I signed up for this, no one mentioned anything about how this system gets updated every time I update my post. That's good, but unexpected. Also, no one tells you about things like, how is CodProject going to interpret the code blocks I added with WordPress shortcodes? Apparently, it parsed the code blocks out and it looks good.
It didn't display the links to the source content that I added in the reference section at the bottom of all of my post. I worked on making this possible for over a year before I was able to programmatically add content from the Microsoft GitHub repo so that all of the reference material is there in on place, all linking back to BOTH the GitHub source and the equivalent page where it's being display on Microsoft's website. So the attribution is there. You're just not seeing it.

The reason I mention this here is threefold. First, you are acting as a representative of CodeProject in this interaction. Second, you have had opportunity to describe my work and I am taking this opportunity to do the same. Third, in the event that you are a reasonable human being, I might enlighten you as to the nature of the project you've spent so much time publicly tearing apart.

I got a blog imported via rss feed. The format was messed up. I deleted it as I did not want users to see an incorrectly formatted article. I have now corrected the formatting issue. I wonder if I can have that 'restored'. The article I am talking about is at Map/Reduce script in SuiteScript 2.0[^]
Thank you.
