In the latest newsletter 'The Best Articles of August' were announced. However, the Survey Voting Form shows that voting ends on '22 Sep 2017'. As far as I can tell, the competition is still running. It is also still shown atop the CodeProject homepage.

This is a very big egg on my face. I thought it ended last week, and foolishly announced the winners last week.
I am very sorry about this. I will email the "winners" and apologize and explain the error, and announce the real winners this Friday.
Thanks,

There should be a law against Mondays.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, weighing all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

I'd have just kept the current winners and closed the competition. But then you may be more of a Steve Harvey fan. "Still a great night"

Had a message which appeared completely blank - so you can't tell what is in there. Let it through, and edit the answer once posted, and it's full content is this:
<a href=""></a><a href=""></a><a href=""></a><a href=""></a><a href=""></a> But because the human readable part has no length, it doesn't get a yellow highlight in the spam detector.
Could we add a check for zero length human readable links, and encode & highlight the whole HTML tag instead? It would make the process a lot easier.

Are you thinking that if there was zero human readable text then I display as HTML encoded?
What if we had
Hi! <a href=""></a><a href=""></a><a href=""></a><a href=""></a><a href=""></a>
What if I presented a raw version as well as the HTML formatted version?
cheers

That would do it - but I was thinking of when the human readable portion of the <a> tag was zero length:
<a href="mysite.com"></a> To perhaps display as:
Hi! <a href="mysite.com"></a> My name is IdiotSpammer and I ...
But that's probably a lot more effort than the raw view for a small number of cases.

The question is from 2010. Good start 
The guy posted identical solutions 4 and 5, so 5 should be a Repost.
But, solutions 4 and 5 are also an almost copy of solutions 2 and 3, in my opinion, I would have voted as an Abuse, but the option have disappeared.

The guy is gone very far:
In comment 1 "nice", he show appreciation for its own solution
In comment 2 "thanku", he thanks himself for the appreciation
Note that solution 3 is also a Repost of solution 2, but are from another guy.

I reported a while ago that 'new' was showing up all the time. I reported it.
Bugs and Suggestions[^]
Today new is now working as I would think it should.
And I didn't realize until now how much better that is.

Sigh, today it looks like it is back to the old behavior.

If added then it would be great.

I mean most of the members here for learning & programming on perticular. Suppose someone has problem c# multidimensional array practice then S/he can request to author to write on this topic and also other member can get that article.

That is already covered in the forums and Q&A.

I don't think you understand what an article is, or just how much work is involved in writing one.
Generally speaking, an article will take anything between a day to a month (or even longer) of solid work to write, polish, and publish - and everyone who writes articles is a volunteer. That mean they fit it in around work and life commitments, they do not get paid to write them. Which means that the "lead time" to publish an article can be months or even years. That's not practical for you as the consumer who needs help with a specific topic such as multidimensional arrays - your final exam will be over before you get to read it!
I don't personally think it would be a popular and useful extension to the site. Plus, it would immediately be abused by idiots who want their homework done; and we get enough of them in QA already ...

Writing a comment e.g. in Q/A and press "Submit": It does not Show the comment after "Submit"... leads to reposting also from other expririenced users

We were doing updates at around the time you reported this, so some comments may have failed for a brief time.

In this question C# division by zero for doubles - comvisible - infinity vs. Dividebyzeroexception[^]I entered the title
C# division by zero for doubles - COMVisible - Infinity vs. DivideByZeroException
which will be shown as
C# division by zero for doubles - comvisible - infinity vs. Dividebyzeroexception
Not a big thing, but I think caps should not be adjusted automatically/randomly...

I was pretty sure I posted a "Pointless" response to the survey, not the one that is there. Was it removed or did I have a senior moment and didn't actually post it.
It was along the lines of an honest person would not but a dishonest person would lie in the survey so the question is pointless.
BTW the above observation also invalidates @ChrisMaunders observation of the morals of the members.
Never underestimate the power of human stupidity
