I've contacted the author. I expect him to descend majestically from on high, with the ability to sync that file in one hand, or a copy of that April 2000 file in the other.
Thank you in advance for your patience.

I don't know if that is being discussed earlier. Searched for it and couldn't find anything related to it. (Maybe I should improve my search skills  )
Anyways what I think that can be beneficial is referencing CP members where we enter text. Like in Facebook when we type "@" and after that the name that we want to refence. Example "@Chris Maunder" that person will be notified that his name is used under some topic-question-article..
I think that might be useful some cases when the user was not cheecking and missed the subject, qeustion and the area is within his intreset and skills. So when he is referenced he can join in the conversation. Regards.

It's an interesting idea, but the syntax needs a tiny bit of work. How is it going to handle the spaces in peoples names bearing in mind that CP isn't operating something like a Facebook lookup API?
|
|

To be honest I have no idea how CP's search engine works and I wasn't saying the syntax should be the same as Facebook or something else. If it can be implemented as far the systems allows, I am sure people will get used to defined syntax for it.
About the spacing issue, I wasn't thinking of the implementation of it. It popped up in my mind while I was creating the previous suggestion because it is also related to Sergey as well so I wanted to let him know some how. That was idea which came to my mind first.

Hello,
Yesterday "Sergey Alexandrovich Kryukov" came up with a brilliant idea that we discussed under this[^] question in Quick Answers section.
Basic idea is to prepare a FAQ for some specific answers which is being continuelly asked and filling up the db with redundant data. Such as "index out range", "referencing null pointer" exceptions and etc. We would like to have your opinion about it. Depending on the answerwe will take action. Thanks.

This is an excellent idea. At the time when I still understood something at programming, so about 10 years ago, and C++ was THE language, Michael Dunn set up a (MFC) C++ FAQ with the most recurrent questions ( should still be available, but I am too lazy to get a link), and we would happily link to it when answering questions in the C++ forum.
So don't wait, and start it !

It seems a good idea on the surface, but it does have drawbacks. Frequently asked questions come up in Google, (so often the OPs of such questions should have found the answer in any case) and there are going to be a lot of them even for a given topic.
The other problem that immediately springs to mind is that such questions often provide newer members a way in to start answering questions and building up their reputation on the site. If these questions are not asked, they won't get the opportunity (though given my point above, they will get asked IMO).

Well I have never thought about these facts. I think you are right about it. It will have more drawbacks to the newbees other than helping them. But as Pete advised it can be a good tip/trick or article. I will work on it and when I prepare it i will share it to public.

Here's a really wild thought. We could call this type of thing, an article or a tip/trick.
|
|
|
|

It is a wild and i think it can be a never ending tip7trick article as well but i will have the headstart and will see what it goes from there.

Excellent. I look forward to reading it.

I have two articles:
Total Downloads = 1821 + 155
Total Book Marks = 8+8
Total Votes(all 5*) = 5 + 2
And my Author reputation is 1797... Something seriously wrong.
May be time to redefine all classical math operations; like 1+1 = -12 ; 1-1 = -24; 1/1 = 32; 1x1 = undefined

Read the post at the top of this page.
And your math is wrong: 1+1=3, as any book about making children will prove.

It was a proposal(the math ops), thanks for the feedback and correcting them. Way to go!

The maths is designed to recognise the reputation of the "bigger hitters" of Code Project. This means that a +5 from someone like myself will count more for your article than an account that was created 10 minutes ago. One of the reasons for this is so that people get rewarded more, the more they contribute - and your article/tip/whatever vote gets a heavier weight vote which people should trust more.

Whatever may be its pure sense that it should be more than 1976 + 7votes + 16 bookmarks. it cannot be 1797

Downvotes lower the total as they add negative values.

No you don't. I went and looked at your articles - you have votes lower than 5 in both of them.

Now go into your articles and hover over the stars rating box - take a look at what you see in there. That's what I did, and I saw that there were downvotes on your articles (take a look at the explanation in there about the removal of statistical outliers).

I dont see any lower rating there... Are we comparing apple to platypus ?

This is bizarre, and I think there's been a problem here on CP. I raised a bug report because Sacha's latest article was showing a 2 vote without a comment; now your article was also showing me a 2 vote. Today, however, the 2 votes are gone. What does your author reputation show now?
