What are we supposed to do with them?
This for example: http://www.codeproject.com/script/Articles/ArticleVersion.aspx?waid=86299&aid=635396[^]
It's three sentences, one of them "Please download and do it" and it looks more like a question than anything else.
And the only option I have is "Approve".
Approve it for what? Execution?
So what are we supposed to do? Ideas, anyone?

Seems more like a request for someone to download his code and rework it to meet his requirements. He needs to be referred to rent-a-coder. Seems weird that it can only be "approved".

I have deleted it. Chris is aware that there aren't enough options for reference articles.

Exactly what the name would suggest. Articles that act as references.
|
|
|
|

Does that mean they can be copies of someone's work or would that still be considered plagiarism?
Sorry if this is a stupid question, but I have not been able to find a description about expected/acceptable content of Reference articles.
I did notice Chris changed some of his articles to be Reference articles, including CP article #1: Braces and brackets[^]

At the top right of each article is a box that provides a little info on the article, including the type. The type is actually a link to an explanation page[^].

References to what?
Who decides? Surely not the author, if they are to be references in the sense of "the standard work on the subject" - that should be the readers, shouldn't it? And if it is, why does it need approval? If it isn't then again, why does it need moderation approval?
Surely you can't just write something and decide "this is the definitive article" and publish it directly as such? (Because I can see that being abused PQD!)

I gather that they are meant to be for such things as a list of ASCII characters, that type of thing. Basically, short articles that can be used as a handy one stop location for information - for instance, the syntax of Dependency Properties.

Apologies for missing the other options for reporting. They are now in place.

This message[^] requests for windows password hacking. Also, this acccount[^] wants to get malicious code. I hope, we don't want to be associated with this kind of person...

This question: http://www.codeproject.com/Messages/4633524/Skype-Brute-Forcer.aspx[^]
By this member: http://www.codeproject.com/script/Membership/View.aspx?mid=10202121[^]
Is requesting source code fro a Skype Brute Forcer - which as far as a quick internet check is concerned seems to be a tool for brute force attacks intended to crack Skype passwords. Surely this counts as malicious code, which we don't want to be associated with?

User Nuked, Answers were empty, so I guess nuked as well
M.D.V. 
If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?
Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you
Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

I hope you knew what you have been reporting and the questions were really the spam.
For a record, I would be careful: if some answers (to ancient questions or not) are really on the topic of the question, informative of helpful, they should not be considered as abuse even if they are based on some other site.
