...is not working. This happened after scroll is added.

As I understood it, it now only works for blocks higher than 400px. And it only collapses the blocks to min 400px (which then adds the scrollbar)
|

If it is so, i would say former was better as now we can not collapse all the code e.g. what if there are 5 10 code blocks.

This raises the question: What do you want the collapse block to do?
Do you want it to simply make stupid-long blocks manageable (but still readable) or do you want to actually hide all code blocks?
If the latter then it would be far better for me simply to add a "Hide Code" button at the top of each post that handles all code blocks in a given post.

Answer: Both, but I wouldn't restrict hiding code blocks to an "all or nothing" kind.
And I have some arguments why this makes sense for me:
1. Especially in articles there are kinda different types of code blocks, some more high level and others more low level. Depending how much I'm actually interested into the topic of the article I choose if I'm interested in the code, only the non-complex stuff or not care about the code at all. Having the possibility to collapse the more complex ones, helps then to keep the article more fluent (instead of having to search for the line where the article continues)
2. It's possible that you have multiple code blocks in a row, if you're dealing with different languages (example: html + css + js) which are used to solve a certain problem. Collapsing all but the one you're interested in makes it easier to follow, especially if there's text around those code blocks, that are explaining the content of those blocks.

What happens when you simply post a question without any obvious spam and update it? Here, obvious spam means something that can be detected by filters.
I saw a recent case where spammer was aware of filters i think. Question posted as normal and then updated with spam links. Once the question gets updated it should be again checked by filters. I'm not sure this functionality is already available or not.

At the bottom of the page it gives the keyboard short-cuts CTRL+Left, CTRL+Right, etc. as normal.
But for articles / tips in the moderation queue (such as this would-be tip[^]) they don't work. They do in normal articles and forums.

It's not a biggie, but if the prompt is there the short-cuts should work.

There have been several issues with this author. He has already deleted articles once as a result of several negative votes on an extremely poor article. This may be another case where he has removed an article.
A word of warning. A best article award isn't always a guarantee of quality. There have been cases of authors getting their colleagues to upvote their articles - I'm not saying this was necessarily the case here, but it does happen. Sometimes, absolutely superb articles miss out to very poor articles precisely because of this.

You know, I have wondered about some of the articles and how they won but I have to tell you as an infrequent, somewhat lazy visitor, I tend to want to take for gospel that an article I pull up that has won something will of course be a good and noteworthy article. That the content will be good and it's guidance in coding or whatever worthy of using in something I am working on.
This is a little unnerving to think that an article can make it past some sort of check or double-check system? Maybe you don't have that in place? Sad to think that just because votes drive the winner that a bad article can win prizes and praise? It's not really that simple is it? I do have enough discernment to not take an article and just use it's suggestions if it doesn't sound right to me but there has to be quality assurance at some level. Sure takes away from the credibility of the site in my mind at some level. I mean the overarching idea is to guide and teach people right. Maybe change the award to most popular or something may be more appropriate in some cases. Thanks.

There was a certain historical trend in play until quite recently. Basically, there was a weighting put in to the votes so that a small number of downvotes could be ignored if there were an overwhelming number of good votes. The algorithm here has been tweaked so that the sites heavy hitters votes aren't as easily filtered out so, if you get 100 low rep people voting 5 for an article and 5 of the site "superstars" voting 1 then the average would be dragged down appropriately.
As the popularity of an article is the indicator of which articles make it into the competition, this means that there has been a certain correction put in place now to remove the worst excesses from the voting process.

To addition - it happened that a 'best article' was plagiarised, but we found it only months after...
Skipper: We'll fix it.
Alex: Fix it? How you gonna fix this?
Skipper: Grit, spit and a whole lotta duct tape.

Until a few hours ago I could click on the header "Latest Articles" (on the home page) and get the option to switch to "Latest Blog Posts" - now that's gone missing. By design or bug?

Design. They have been combined.
