My Article was Deleted at this link:
http://www.codeproject.com/KB/web-security/StuxnetMalware.aspx
The Reason for deletion is:
"has been deleted because it copies in whole or part the material in the article at [http://ispy.infospyware.net/images/2010/MrxCls-Stuxnet-Loader-Driver-English.pdf]. We take plagiarism seriously - please respect the rights of others." by Sean Ewington
But I'm the same Author of both two articles ... and I decided to merge the two articles ... you can check that yourself and you will see the Author is Amr Thabet
Please I need to restore it very soon
Thanks,
Amr Thabet

I'm working on an article at the moment and I'm finding that there are lots of interesting little side notes - often the additional knowledge is helpful to those more familiar with the subject, but overkill to those who are reading through for the first time. Ideally I'd like to be able to put these in some form of call out box thingie, much like you might find in a Dummies book. Not that I would admit to reading a Dummies book you understand.
Does anybody have any suggestions as to what sort of markup I can use for this sort of callout box, as I am aware that extra markup would normally be removed on submission?
Thanks,
Chris

Chris, I normally mark it up using the address tag or the italic tag.

Hey Pete,
Thanks for the response. I guess these would do the job! I should have thought of italics myself, but the address tag is a new one to me.
Thanks,
Chris

Hi,
I recently posted a tip[^], and today wrote a response to a comment on the tip. I noticed that when I deleted my early-version comments, they still 'show up' when I visit that page. I'm curious if I can see the deleted comments because I am logged in, but no one else can ... or, do they ... by design ... persist for a while ?
... edit ... strike the above: I logged-out of CP, and verified that the deleted comments were not visible while logged-out. duhhh-oh ...
Second, I noticed someone has taken their time to re-format the tip so it uses CP style font/font-size/color tags for sub-heads, and a monospaced font for .NET objects and operators: is that common ? I hadn't thought about what it meant to set 'Editors' for a tip to 'Platinum members' ... in fact, I realize that: I have never looked to see exactly what a 'Platinum' member 'is.' 
... edit ... I now realize the formatting was done by a CP editor, thanks ... I finally looked up what a Platinum member is ... and now I can't forget ...
If anyone reading this can notify Henry Minute, I'd really appreciate his looking at the tip, and its comments, and responses, since his 2009 CP article is mentioned/discussed in it. His feedback would be very valuable.
thanks, Bill

Since you are able to post here why are you not able to contact Henry?

Hi Richard,
In his posts, Henry does not enable e-mail ... I don't either. I am reluctant to post what is essentially a private message on the Lounge.
However, now that you mention that, I think I'll leave a note for him on the feedback section of his 2009 article, so thanks for jogging my memory !
best, Bill

You could have responded to any of his messages asking him to contact you privately. As you don't normally accept email direct on your messages you can always enable it for a day or so to let him in.

I'm sorry if my posting here upset you, and I hope you get over it ... soon, because I am likely to do it again if another situation arises that is relevant to article writing on CodeProject, and I am communicating with an intent to add to the technical quality of the content on CodeProject.
Henry posts many messages per day in the Lounge; given the frequency of his posts, I do not assume he necessarily reads the responses.
Anything else bothering you ?
best, Bill

You having a bad day, week perhaps?
I offered some useful technical advice as to how you could make direct contact with a CP member who does not accept personal emails in response to forum messages. I'm sorry that has upset you, although I am at a total loss as to understand why.

Hi, please don't hit me for mentioning MS Word. I was wondering if there was any master document / export script combination (that creates acceptable HTML output) available which could be used for writing articles. Does anybody use such a thing?
If no, how do you do the automated spell checking?
|
|
|
|
|
I wouldn't use Word as a starting point. If I did, I'd copy the text out into Notepad and paste it into a web editor (into the article template) and then go back through adding the formatting that I needed. Alternatively, as I write in a web editor anyway, I'd use the built in spell checker in Chrome or Firefox to help me.

I posted a comment to the author of this article[^], asking for a bit more detail; today he responded asking for some guidance. However, when I looked at the article it has been closed following votes by (list of CP members) but no comments were left as to why. It seems a bit harsh to vote for an article to be deleted without leaving a comment for a) the author, and b) others in the CP fold, so we all understand their reasoning.

This looks like an error and we're looking into it. The author should be able to reopen their article.

Now that's weird, because I was sure I left a note. Anyway, I'll repost my comment. Strange.

Hi,
I was wondering if there's any real need for an article, or series of articles, on WinForms C# programming. Recently, I've read some answers here on 'Q&A' that have kind of 'shocked' me ... given the high-CP-rep of their posters ... by their incorrectness, and also recently, in researching a WinForms issue on StackOverFlow, I was surprised to see some highly voted-up answers that were clearly wrong.
But, the doubter says, 'perhaps WinForms is yesterday's lunch ?'
Appreciate your thoughtful response.
thanks, Bill

There are a ton of devs working on WinForms. Bucket loads.
If you're seeing misinformation then it would be a dis-service not to write up a piece to help put to rest the misconceptions.
So: yes please!

Hi Chris,
Thanks for your input ! Recently, here on CP, in cases where I felt an incorrect statement was made, I have left respectful feedback. On StackOverFlow, by contrast, I see no point in correcting a two-to-three year old answer that's been 'accepted' by an OP and has many up-votes.
Still not sure in my head if there's cause, at this time, with Win8 and a future of HTML5, JavaScript+jQuery+jWhatever, and CSS, looming, and the future of SilverLight, WPF, and WinForms, unclear (pre BUILD), if there's a good reason to have a systematic series of WinForms' tutorials: perhaps just a series of "tips" would do.
best, Bill

Bill - regardless of what's coming next year, XP is still the dominant OS in the corporate desktop environment and will remain so for a long time to come yet. Despite my love for WPF, I have to admit that WinForms is still a strong candidate for developing desktop applications, so I say go for it - WinForms will be around for a long time to come yet.

I agree. Until now, many companies here still use Windows XP. Even I am still using XP and I'm still loving it.

Hey All,
I just logged on for the first time in quite a while and man ... I haven't seen such a dodgy collection of articles awaiting approval ...
I reported a couple of horrific plagerisations and there are a few 'articles' that really aren't worth the bytes to store them.
I mean "New Features of C#3.0" posted today ... ! WTF?
Hmm ...
Cheers,

What's happened is we changed the approval process so that it takes 5, not 1 vote to approve an article. This means the dodgy articles are more likely to be trapped in the moderation queue so that suggestions to the author can be made without risking the article going public prematurely.
