I had posted an article and a tip using my account farhanshahsyed110@gmail.com. I had submitted each of them for publishing, only once. But out of nowhere an email arrived in my inbox with the description, "Content has been posted that is spam 10 times and is now deactivated." Isn't there enough accountability for the person who deactivates any account, aren't there any checks? I would have updated my article and tip under the supervision of some moderator but closure of my account has frustrated me a lot. I never posted anything more than once. PLEASE. RESTORE. THE. ACCOUNT.

Instead of asking the person who posts such queries. Somebody should've moved my question/thread to the relevant forum. Thank you though.

Spam votes have to be done by multiple members of the site. Your account had to have several people report it.

It's perfectly simple: you post spam, you get kicked off the site.
If you want to plead for your account to be reinstated, you can contact the site admins. But your spam article will not be published.

As far as I can tell your account is active. As for your submission, there are two main problems with it:
1. We do not typically allow articles on third party products except for in very specific cases.
2. CodeProject is more about code teaching than it is tool sharing. Even though you are submitting a tip (which is a brief solution to a specific problem) it should be a description of a specific problem, followed by the code that solves it and quick overview of how that code works.
Thanks,

I don't know if I agree with this. I just barely got an account banned. I saw some responses to a discussion on "specific" hosting options with names used. I responded with some reasons and other hosting names and the following day got this spam deactivated message. I'd never made any responses before with my account so I assume it was related. Are you saying with enough downvotes we automatically get our accounts banned?

They aren't downvotes, they are reports on the account for abuse. Which account are you talking about? I will take a look to see what happened.
Thanks,

the account linked to my. I replied to the deactivated email and included the webmaster, but so far have recieved no response.

Judging from the history it looks like you might have linked to a personal blog or site (or it appeared that way) if you agree to not do that again, I'd be happy to restore your account.
Thanks,

I agree to not do that again, I'd really appreciate it! Also where can we see these terms? They don't really seem to clear in the TOS. Most websites have an abbreviated version of things that they flag users for.

I looked through the TOS and was unable to identify any terms about giving links to 3rd parties or personal. There were some saying that codeproject is not liable for damage from other sites and that they reserve the right terminate users based on their comments, but it isn't clear codeproject's code of conduct expectations. I wasn't able to see anywhere in the TOS that said we can't publish 3rd party links besides links that are illegal or ones requiring fees.

I can discuss whether or not the TOS are specific enough with the team, but regardless, please do not post links to outside content.

can a moderator please help me with getting approve an article of mine. A community member has closed my article with the objection of not enough content while the article covers every aspect of the topic. Here is the link.

If it's the "print large PDF" one, you've used a commercial product without mentioning it. That counts as "spam".

Is there a formatting tag for snippets in Matlab?
It's a pitty that the snippets in https://www.codeproject.com/Articles/1196024/Machine-Learning-Gradient-Descent look so.
I have made the obvious try with < pre lang = "matlab" > but it didn't work

You can see the tricks of the trade in this article:
Article Formatting tips for CodeProject[^]
It's extremely arduous and time-consuming, though, if you don't know LaTeX. Images might be preferable to the author.

I'm pretty sure Nelek is talking about the code snippets of the article, which are in the Matlab language, for which there is no syntax highlighting available.
The quick brown ProgramFOX jumps right over the Lazy<Dog>.

Yeah, I was meaning that. Sorry if it was not clear

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?
Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you
Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

According to this[^] the output of Mathlab should be processable by MathJax, the system we use to render LaTeX. So - take the output from MatLab and enclose it in either
<div class="math">$...$</div>
or
<span class="math">(...)</span>
