Articles are picked when an Editor sees an article they really like. There's no schedule, and no quota. An editor might see a string of C# articles and pick 10 in a week, or they may not see a Java article that blows them away for a month. Each category (C++, C#, etc) will display whatever the latest editor's choice article can be found within that given category.
If you're not proud to have your article chosen then I don't know what to say, other than it saddens me.

Thanks for the response.
I hope I am not being petty, but with the number of high quality and useful posts you receive and number of page views the landing page gets I would hope that front page exposure would be kept fresh and interesting.
Dude, I live for the moment I see my name on the front page! That is what brought this issue to my attention. Tag Cloud was up for a few intervals and then I made it for a few days and then Tag Cloud went back up and stayed for over a month. I noticed this. Don't misunderstand me, I am not jealous or complaining about not staying on the front page, just wondering at the seemingly capricious nature of the Editor's Choice.
Cheers.

Wait no longer.
I thought I'd selected one of blog entries as an Editor's Choice before. I show your blog entries to bloggers who need guidance.

Yes, several of my posts have been selected, and it makes me feel warm and fuzzy inside.

Hi,
I have been doing MFC C++ and have an idea for an article
what is the process for submission etc...
thankx
|
|
|
|
|
Hi,
there are some guidelines here[^]; close to the top of that page is the link to the Article Submission Wizard.
It may be worthwhile to look at some of the articles already on CodeProject. You could also ask for a mentor, who would guide you. Not sure how exactly that works.
|
|
|
|
|
How about I tell you about my idea and you tell me if its worhwhile
here its
"Making a Modless Dialog a Main Window"
|
|
|
|
|
Hi,
I haven't done any MFC myself the last ten years, so I can't really comment. I suggest you expand that title to a first paragraph, you know the one that people read to decide whether to read on or not; and then wait for a few people here to react.

|

So what is different from any other main window? What time-saving or other technical extra does this offer the developer?
It's time for a new signature.

Please keep in mind I only moonlight at this or this-> (joke)
My daytime job is as a Assembler programmer on a Mainframe
So ... to answer your question um....
well when there is a parent child relationship in reagards to Windows
Windows the OS generates a lot of WM_PAINT type messages when the child window/control is moved around
trying not to bump into the MainWindow
I guess the genration of these messages would go away

1. Guessing is rarely enough; I would suggest some more research into exactly what does happen.
2. You still have not explained why your 'solution' would be useful to a developer.
3. If you still feel the article is worthwhile then go ahead and post it; and see what feedback you get from the community.
It's time for a new signature.

Hi everybody,
I've created a WPF application that contains a music by Enrique Iglesias. I don't know what the music license is.
Can I post the App on CodeProject ?
Thanks.

Personally, I feel the world needs far, far more Enrique Iglesias. Unfortunately the RIA and other copyright holders shun the public use and distribution of their contracted artists' music without the suitable fees being paid.

It didn't work for Tom Jones, why would it work for Enrique?

The article has yet the composing status, I am not sure how long does it take from composing to final or published status.
And there is this one more thing, the article is only visible through my profile, when I am not logged on I can't find the article.

Sounds like you checked the button "This is a work in progress". Uncheck the button and it will move to "Pending", meaning it will be up for moderation and approval.

I am afraid I can't find any button of that sort. Where exactly do I have to look for it. I am in the 'Edit Article' page...

Did you receive feedback on the articles? Did you understand and act upon that feedback? The usual reason articles get deleted is because they are poorly constructed or simply do not contain enough to qualify as articles. If the issue is your ability to write English then ask for help. First and foremost, though, did you read and understand the article writing guidelines? Did you read some of the successful articles to see what it is that is expected of you? Far too many people attempt to publish sub-standard articles without having done any of the above and are, inexplicably, shocked when they don't get published.

Some people will really like the articles you public; others won't. That's why articles can be rated.
My problem is with people who rate an article down, and offer no explantion as to why. Did you get a 1 because there are obvious bugs (to everyone else) in your code? Are you fluffing up something that is irrelevant or already general knowledge? Is your example confusing? Does your explanation wander more than a drunken housefly? Did someone click to your article looking for porn and get annoyed when there wasn't any?
Just rating an article isn't very helpful. If there was some way to connect the act of rating with a comment -- maybe even move the rating into the comments section -- authors could get more feedback that will help them improve with latter articles, or at least direct an author on where the article needs to be rewritten. Thoughts?

For a long time already, voting 1 or 2 on an article requires a message (which could be almost empty and not tell you anything).
FYI: the "suggestions & bugs" forum would be the right place to discuss this.
