Seems like there are major issues with these new articles needing approval. Plus the author profiles are wacked too. It says they have been members since 9 years 1 month.

w4[^]

w3[^]

w2[^]

Please look at all there profiles and see, many of them have weird info.

It's the spammer blindly adding co-authors with low id-numbers. If you look at the authors, the 2nd id is very recently created.

As the Backroom does not have voting privileges, should a thread as moved to the Backroom, irrespective where from, that have any postings as marked "Message Automatically Removed" be revoked and the original message returned. Without voting any post marked "Message Automatically Removed" looks strange and out-of-place.

Almost by definition do posts in the Backroom look strange and out of place.

"Articles Submitted" on a who is who page is no longer a link on web13 (it hovers to underline, but it remains black and the cursor is an ibeam, not a finger). web15 is fine. both repeatedly.

Re: article: table of content

27-Aug-09 12:38

How about this:

the article submission wizard could offer a way to order a table of content, with its own <h2>Content</h2> title, and listing all the <h2> headers in a nice little one- or two-column table with links. Automatically.

All the user has to do is insert some magic thing (say <!-- CONTENT --!>) and he would get the table added right there when looking at it in WYSIWYG editing, preview, and onwards, but never in EDIT HTML.

BTW: if removal is too hard, then we'd better have an end marker too, so it can still be automated easily.

When you right click the Lounge / Soapbox button and select "Open in a new tab" nothing happens. Works fine for "The Lounge" under the Forums list, though.
