I got 1 point for asking the question. Then one of my edits was to post the solution to my problem, OK 2 points for that. But then I got another 6 points for three more edits as I corrected spelling mistakes and cleaned up the code a little. I do not think one should get points for that.

6 points in the grand scheme of things is minor, and is well below the radar, I wouldn't worry about it.
You get points for cleaning up others spelling, why not your own.

IMO edits are difficult to handle properly.
1. I often edit a forum message of mine, almost right away. Typically I create an answer, publish it, read it again, then add a sentence or two (my lateral thinking sometimes kicks in a bit late). I don't really want extra points for that.
2. When I update my forum reply the next day, or my article at any time, I would appreciate extra points and get neither.
3. If I write "color" anywhere, someone edits that to "colour", I turn it back into "color", etc etc ad nauseam, I don't think we should both accumulate lots of points for that.
4. Assuming the "minor edit" checkbox still exists and influences the rewards for an edit, it will be abused.
5. When someone changes a sentence to become the opposite of what it said before (from wrong to right, or the other way around), what to do with the replies, comments, votes? I don't like my "excellent" message to figure below an article that was correct and got changed to blatantly incorrect.
Conclusion:
1. I don't like edits by others, except for an official editor adding formatting. I'm glad forum messages cannot be edited by others; and I don't open my articles for others to edit them (post a reaction, I'll edit if I agree).
2. And I think edits by the original author needs to get better support: (a) automatically add the article's revision number to the message (in a way that can't be edited), and (b) provide a subscription mechanism that lets me subscribe to an article, so I get an e-mail when it gets edited by its author.
PS: not edited yet.

A reputation adjustment was just performed, and it may take some time to sync the graph to your profile page.

Shouldn't we be getting points for approving articles? It's not in the FAQ, and I don't ever see my organizer points go up as a result of doing so...

Yep - that's on the list for organiser points but has to wait until we rework the system to make approval require X votes.

Still waiting for an OData reputation feed so that I can give you a Silverlight rep graph.

I managed to get a very basic feed up last week but getting the flu over Christmas/NY killed a week of prime productivity time. Soon.

I've added a way for you to get back your organiser points: Squillions[^]. I'll leave it as an exercise for the reader on how I got that.

That's funny.
Because I voted this early in the day, I'm sure you got the points for my five vote...

I was trying last 10-15 minutes in firefox I can't, so I'm posting this after logged in IE.
BTW I know that Reputation recalculation is going.
One useful SQL query for you
UPDATE Reputation SET Score = Score + (SELECT Score FROM Reputation WHERE Member='CG') WHERE Member='thatraja'

thatraja wrote: UPDATE Reputation SET Score...
Yeah, I'll get right on that...

I am repeatedly getting
Items that need attention:
There was an error attempting to insert your message.
Trying to post in The Lounge. I have tried about 10 times. I even cancelled and started again but to no avail.
[EDIT]
Tried again after posting this, and all was well.

This was due to a massive database load during the points recalc.

guessed it might have something to do with that.

Hey Guys,
This question is actually a advertising...
The username is the name of the company linked to in the answer.
