This is exactly my point A properly working moderation would be a benefit for all but at the moment it requires some work.

From the Article FAQ:
The way the moderation works is you have to receive five "Approve" items to be published, or five "Report / Needs help" items to reach a different article status. If five members Approve your article it will become live and available for all to see. If five members either "Report" or mark your article as "Needs help" your article status will become "Closed" and you will receive an email notification indicating who closed the article, why, and what to do
It seems to me that they need to increase the number of approvals AND increase the author level needed to approve from silver to gold. However, I've seen articles with as many as 20 "reports", and yet it remains in "moderation".

I'd agree to an extent, but I'd put that down to bad moderating rather than a process that isn't fit.
It still weeds out a lot of plagiarism and spam, even if some of the dross articles do get through that aren't ready yet.
Education of new moderators would probably help more than getting rid of the process.

I still argue for making approvers visible for a certain group of people, let's say Protectors, Mentors and / or very (but really very) high ranked authors... so that when such articles get approved, that reduced group of people could speak with the happy-shiny moderators.
And why not... a possibility to create a "black list", of course this only available for the staff, and take the privilege of approving to people who doesn't take care about quality and give the approvals away indiscriminately

The most interesting part is that it spells "Colourised" correctly.

Canadians can spell, unlike their nearest neighbours!

Happens in articles too. Maybe they left some sort of debugger active in this build.

On article http://www.codeproject.com/Articles/238114/Realtime-Webcam-Sudoku-Solver
At the bottom there is section "Video". You will see dummy "video-placeholder youtube" tag. Youtube video used to work there for years. Dear admin/editor, can you please reactivate that youtube box? Thank you!

All fixed.

No, when opening that article a popup shows asking "You have chosen to open: XUCh8IOINjY which is application/x-shockwave-flash from youtube.com" Do you want to save.
