Hi,
Hope somebody can help me. Just noticed that the last editor of this article
Facade to disparate databases[^] has included a few extraneous XML tags in some C# code. The added tag is </integratedfaultcontracts> and is in the 'Take a License', 'Update a Use' and 'Delete a Use' paragraphs, last item after the closing brace.
Please could someone let me know how I can fix this? When I try to update the article I don't see the version with those changes in it.
Thanks much

I've done it again. I wrote an article, but apparently I used too few words. Question to the moderators and reviewers, since when quantity trumpets quality? Things that used to take us hundreds of lines of code, became one-liners, which do not require elaborate explanation or walk-through. So why are the reviewers stuck in the mindset that more words is better?

What goes on in that one line though? Just because something can be reduced to one line doesn't mean that we don't want to know why you are using that one line? What decisions you took in deciding that one line fits the problem domain? What are the edge cases or compromises that we have to consider?
That's what we want to know, and you can't cover that type of thing in a few lines in an article. It's not just the how, it's the what and why as well.

Don't forget that not everyone who reads the article is at the same knowledge level. Some people will be absolute beginners and will need all those extra words just to understand what you are trying to teach them. Those who have a better background will be able to skim read to the parts that they need.

OP should follow the submission guidelines as I have suggested.

Just wondered if there are any rules for when it's ok to change the name of an article?
My one and only article have developed out of scope of the original name, it isn't A propertymapping Extension for DataReaders[^] anymore, it's "An InstanceCreating Extension for DataReaders" nowadays

That's a technical blog. Did you see the widget on right side of the article?
or Did I miss anything?

Hello thatraja,
Yeah, that one only.
Let me tell you what I did.
I clicked on Update Button on Right Top. Then by default it is showing Article instead of Technical Blog.
Then I again changed it to Technical Blog and made some changes to the content and published.
It got converted to Article. Am I doing wrong?
Can you Update it for me? I can provide you what to update.
Thanks,

If not the above one then clarify.

No, inside the Widget, there is a Type, which shows Article after I update.
It also shows under Article Tab in Moderation Queue.

Got it. Wait for admins.

Okay. Thanks.
Should I wait here or add a question in Site Bugs and Suggestion forum?

No need, just wait.

Hmmm. Now that the article switch has been flipped, I personally can't un-flip it. If you have an update to apply to another technical blog entry, let me try that and see what happens.
Thanks,

Hi Sean,
Yeah, I have another Blog to update.
Link- Why .NET is .NET !!![^].
Need to add an image at top right as in original Blog - http://taditdash.wordpress.com/2014/01/09/why-net-is-net/[^].
Code is...
<a href="http://taditdash.files.wordpress.com/2014/01/microsoft-net.png"><img src="http://taditdash.files.wordpress.com/2014/01/microsoft-net.png?w=300" alt="Microsoft.Net" width="300" height="192" class="alignright size-medium wp-image-65" /></a>
Please try and let me know what happens.

Well it worked OK for me, but I have many permissions. Do you have another one to update? I'd like to try one more thing.
Worst case if this turns out to be a bug you know you can send technical blog updates to me. I'd be happy to apply them for you.
Thanks,

Yeah, I can see the update you have done. Thanks for that.
Actually the Blog having the issue have many revisions now. So, I think for that reason only, it opens up as an Article by default. Can you just delete all the revisions keeping only the current one?
Blog - ASP.NET CheckBoxList Client Side Validation using JavaScript[^].
Please do the following update to it...
Remove the two images at top. Instead add the following code so that images will be larger as in original Post - http://taditdash.wordpress.com/2014/02/12/asp-net-checkboxlist-client-side-validation-using-javascript/[^].
The code to update is...
<div id="attachment_115" style="width: 518px" class="wp-caption alignleft"><a sl-processed="1" href="http://taditdash.files.wordpress.com/2014/02/asp-net-checkbox-validation-nothing-checked.png"><img src="http://taditdash.files.wordpress.com/2014/02/asp-net-checkbox-validation-nothing-checked.png?w=800" alt="ASP.NET CheckBox Validation Nothing Checked" class="size-full wp-image-115"></a><p class="wp-caption-text">ASP.NET CheckBox Validation Nothing Checked</p></div>
<div id="attachment_114" style="width: 514px" class="wp-caption alignleft"><a sl-processed="1" href="http://taditdash.files.wordpress.com/2014/02/asp-net-checkbox-validation-atleast-one-checked.png"><img src="http://taditdash.files.wordpress.com/2014/02/asp-net-checkbox-validation-atleast-one-checked.png?w=800" alt="ASP.NET CheckBox Validation Atleast one Checked" class="size-full wp-image-114"></a><p class="wp-caption-text">ASP.NET CheckBox Validation Atleast one Checked</p></div>
