Hmm,
Who can vote it out? I wrote an article which I think needs to be reformated, it's a twisted mess, but I didn't know how to convey the message. It is doing better then the first in the series (which has been edited by The Code Project). How do I get a mentor? I have enjoyed reading your posts Luc Pattyn.
I don't get the voting system. I wrote a really basic beginner article, posted to the begginer section and I get 1 votes because it lacks code. Next article I load with code and get no votes. Is a 'no vote' aka 'Kiss of Death'?
Why don't they index bookmarks in the natural log part of the popularity equation?
Next article will be more practical use, but it's a full application. I have been looking at other articles here at The Code Project; many of which get high marks on complex projects, but no code concept explination.
What is the magic mix?
Good Article = (Complex src project) + (Simple Article)

Hi,
this is how I see things, others may have a different view:
- a good article is clear and easy to understand, describing something real, with both text and some code (definitely more text than code), and a full source download.
- beginners stuff is tricky, if not sufficiently marked as such, it may get low votes and "nothing new, nothing interesting" notes.
- non-gold members get their articles only shown in a "article needing approval" list on the CP home page, where only gold and upward members can see them and vote and possibly approve for general publication. However the list is a 5-entry LIFO, so newer crap may hide your as yet unapproved gem.
- getting approved but not collecting many votes is a pitty; the approval stage is there so those wise gold members can give you pointers as to how improve your article; following their advice your article should be good and collect decent votes.
- AFAIK bookmarks don't count for anything, however IMO it does not make sense to bookmark something without voting for it.
- articles can be interesting with an emphasis on coding or on application; the former needs to be correct and relevant, the latter gets its merits from realism and getting things done. Both can be equally valuable.

If it's a good article - minutes.
If it needs work then you will get messages in the article explaining what needs to be done to get through moderation, and after you make those changes usually quickly.
If the article is borderline then usually 1 working day.

Hello Community,
I am featuring a an article series on XAML Graphics. The motif is to bridge the gap between Architects, Designers, and Developers. Since I would like to imerse myself in the culture of The Code Project, I would like some voluntiers to mentor my articles. I'm looking for Gold members above who meet the qualifications for Gold based on # of articles submited. An MVP would really be grand.
Here is the link to the Second in the series.
XAML Graphics Series - Part 2 Silverlight 2.0 Desktop Art Animation[^]
Thanks in advance to any willing participants.

Hi,
I don't think I could really help you as English isn't my primary language and me being completely unfamiliar with XAML. I was planning on studying WPF and XAML however a deluge of suckage messages in the lounge have made me avoiding those subjects so far.
Hope some one will come forward and help you though.

Hi,
I am not able to post my blogs in Codeproject.
I mentioned the Feed URL and also in the content of my post I mentioned -
<a rel="tag" href="http://www.codeproject.com/script/Articles/BlogFeedList.aspx?amid=3285611"> codeproject </a>
Currently only one technical blog is displayed but while clicking it's saying that it's deleted.
But still I have that post in my orginal site.
Please help me out.

Hi All,
I have sent update for two of my articles almost one month back (mid May). Still it has not been updated. 
Does anyone know how much time it Codeproject would take to update an article (when the update is sent via email)?
I have sent multiple articles reminding them of the same, but no reply.
Regards,
Sharath

Hello!
I haven't seen any details on how to upload a zip file for an article... Does anyone know how I can do this?
Thanks,

Hi Charles,
It depends on if your article is already published or you are beginning to post it.
Beginning to post:
- From http://www.codeproject.com/info/Submit.aspx[^] you click on "Article Submission Wizard"
- Fill in details: Basename, title, etc.
- The next screen is your chance to submit files, click the "Browse" button, and then select your zip file to be uploaded
An already posted article (only if it is unedited)
- Click on "Modify" in the top right corner of your article
- The next screen is your chance to submit files, click the "Browse" button, and then select your zip file to be uploaded
An alredy posted article (edited)
- Send the zip files you want updated to submit@codeproject.com, along with your article's URL
If you have further questions I'd be happy to help
Thanks,
Sean Ewington

If you want to give some image reference with your Message Reply, the only thing that you can do is, upload the image on any image hosting site and give the url over the message.

You need to post this on the Site Bugs/Suggestions forum, which is monitored by the site admins - they do not look at this forum very often.

Hi Allah Rahim KJ,
Do you have the URL of your article?

In a couple of hours searching, I couldn't find the article where the author describes some sort of algorithm for credit viability application, weighting of results and such. It was posted not so long ago, in last couple of months, but I just cannot nail it down, can anyone tell me the link for it?
Thanks.

My technical posts are automatically inserted to this site from my BLOG: http://weblogs.asp.net/SteveWellens[^]
They look fine in the my BLOG but after they are auto-posted here, the code is messed up.
I've tried:
-Pasting in the original Word document.
-Pasting in the rendered HTML from the original article.
-Pasting in the raw HTML from the original article into the 'HTML' editor.
I'm having to edit the code blocks by hand and the editor seems to jump around like an angry chicken with its head cut off and its ass on fire.
If anyone has any suggestions, tips or links I'd be grateful.
Thanks,
Steve Wellens

Hi. I haven't quite finished writing my article, (it's still marked with the status "composing") but it has decided that it won't display under "My Articles". I can still go in and edit it, assuming I remember what the url is. (ie: look in my history)...

Post the question in one of the programming forums, preferably one for the language you are using.

You can get an answer from this site (this site being Code Project) but not this forum/message board. This one is specifically for answering questions related to writing articles for the site. You weren't advised to post on another site, rather to post in a different forum (one related to programming questions, such as the C# forum.)
Also, please don't post the same question in multiple forums. This isn't going to get you an answer any faster.
