Article with bad format that got through

I can't judge the content, but it looks very ugly.

I have left a message to the owner, if no reaction in some days... could you give him a hand if the technical content deserves it?

Bind a DropDown on selection change of another DropDown using MVC and ajax[^]

I wonder who got it approved D'Oh! | :doh:

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?

I thought we weren't hosting YouTube downloaders?

@sean-ewington - I thought youtube downloaders were a no-no, since they violate their T&C's?
This one got through: Youtube Downloader in One Easy Class[^] - do you want to have a quiet word with him instead of a report in S&A?

[edit]I figured you deserved an extra "n" in your name...:InnocentWhistleSmiley:[/edit]

Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...

What should be done with these?

This "article"[^]

And this one[^]

I voted extremely poor quality, but I honestly don't know what he is going on about in that wall of text in the first one, and the second one just isn't really there.

What do you get when you cross a joke with a rhetorical question?

The metaphorical solid rear-end expulsions have impacted the metaphorical motorized bladed rotating air movement mechanism.

Do questions with multiple question marks annoy you???

Could also be the case that they published the article by mistake, and are still in the process of composing it. In general, I tend to notify them of the possible issue and link to the Article/Tips FAQ.

Best article competition - view results?

Chris Copeland20-Feb-16 0:15

Hi there,

Recently my article was nominated for Best Web Dev Article of January 2016. When I last logged in on Thursday 18th, I was winning by 10 votes or so. When I woke up on Friday 19th, the competition appeared to be closed (could no longer access the voting page.)

I notice that not only did I not win, but I didn't come second either. Neither of the top two articles in the results list made it to second. Is there a way to view the total vote count after the competition has closed, so I can see what happened?

Don't get me wrong, this isn't about being a sore loser. If another article won the competition then fair enough, I'd just like to know how the votes were finalised which determined another article, which was behind by around 10-20 votes, managed to accumulate so many in the space of a few hours I was asleep.

Thanks

If you go to the Survey list[^] and choose "General" as survey type, you can see a list of all past and ongoing article competition surveys. When I look at Survey Results - Best Web Dev Article of January 2016[^], it does show that your article is listed first there, but as the disclaimer says:

Quote:

Note: These results are un-audited numbers. All voting results will be tabulated and audited at the conclusion of voting. The results you see here may differ as a result of that auditing process. CodeProject.com makes no guarantees to the live results which you see here.

The update to my article was not saved in my draft

I failed to save an update to my article, after I clicked the "save draft" button. The draft stored in my account didn't include that update.

I could not also use "publish" button to make an update to my article, as nothing was saved after I clicked it.

How can I update my article?

Thanks very much for your email. Could you please email me (sean@codeproject.com) the article update and the article URL and I will attempt to apply it?

Also, could you please make a post about this in the Site Bugs and Suggestions forum, stating your browser and OS? I'd like to see if anyone else is experiencing the problem.

But I see the following message when I update my blog feed.

Your Technical Blog feed has been successfully updated. You blog's RSS feed will now be scheduled for regular download and your Technical blog articles will be submitted automatically.

Is there anything wrong at my end.
