It is if either your article is apparently excellent, so the first reader approves it (he has to be gold member in order to see it), or the author himself is a gold member, in which case no approval is required.
A member gets gold through patience (that alone would take many years), site activity (such as participating in the forums, and ... publishing articles), and peer appreciation (getting positive votes). I don't know all the details, I believe they are somewhat explained on the who-is-who page.

Kasimier - your article is not suitable for publication in its current form. I have outlined my reasons in the forum for your article.

Who wants to look at that crappy profile anyways? I think that the time of CP staff could be spent on something more productive instead of putting up a page like "This creature was a troll, and was removed"

I disagree.

If that is the reason, then it should say it exactly like that.
CP should be transparent and show its resolve.

Hmm... sounds like a valid point.

Explicitly saying why the account was deleted might be too much info, but it should say "Account deleted" so that it doesn't look like a bug.

In this particular case the member was removed. There's nothing to actually load, hence the message. We do have the ability to ban a member, in which case a different message would be displayed.
However, sometimes we simply nuke a member entirely instead of leaving the account clogging up the system.

This creature[^] has been consistently abusive on the lounge, starting flamewars, posting garbage and all sorts of other nonsense. Not a single message that he posts make sense at any level.
Basically he's been following the footsteps of Kyle, "Teh" developer, and other clueless asshats. Can we have him kicked out, please?
[Additionally, this idiot has been univoting good articles for no sane reasons. You could as well consider removing his votes from such articles]

He has been grinding for a couple of weeks now, I am guilty of feeding him and have stopped.

Some people have their own pages (like a certain FF addon). However, those don't appear to be bookmarkable under the groups page. It would be nice if the page authors had the ability to add users to their page so that their page appears in our groups.

None of this member's[^] posts actually have any real content beyond the <AOL>"me too"</AOL> level, but his sig has multiple links to various sites. I spotted him after he tried pulling the same stunt in the lounge.

He's a persistent one, too... Look at his post history, particularly the comments on articles... He changes the advertising links in his sig based on the article topic... Web hosting sites, Nigerian mapping sites, some kind of solar energy thing...
Not going to click any of his links, but you have to admit, the guy is working hard to spam us or SEO the sites. He's been doing it since April of this year, it seems, and polluting a lot of articles on the site.

I'm glad it's not just me.
I notified CP of the problem by Email about 2.5 hours ago and just after I hit Send I suddenly thought, I've been having problems with my connection/ISP all day, what if it was that that was stopping the redirect?

No problems with your ISP, this was my bad. The correct link was in fact http://www.codeproject.com/redir.aspx?adid=11511. The HTML version of the survey email contained both a link to the survey and a link to CP. Just to be cheeky I decided to track the CP link on the HTML email. On the TEXT version of the email, I did not track the CP link as it would have looked weird. But like an idjut, I pasted the CP tracker instead of the survey tracker. I blame the flu...
