Article Writing

I just looked at the following article: Learning MVC - Part 1: Introduction to MVC Architecture and Separation of Concerns[^]

The first part doesn't really teach you anything other than what wikipedia says. All the other parts are also on his own blog, so it's more like he is using CodeProject to drive traffic to his blog.

I'm wondering why it got accepted?

I asked him about the blog part - he posted the blog after he posted the articles.

That's not what I'm saying.

1. Only part one is available at codeproject.
2. The first part itself is imho too short to be considered as an article

But if that's allowed I would love to short down my articles into "Parts" and put all but part one in my own blog. Great for my traffic, but not so great for codeproject.

Then why not say it to the author, rather than coming here and saying it?

Because I'm wondering if it's allowed or not.

The thing is - the other parts are available here. The author should be pointing to the CP versions, but he's not point to them in the initial entry. I've mentioned that to him.

You can find details here[^].

I'm thinking about writing an article for how to make a chrome app and another article on how to make a chrome extension, so I was wondering, if there is already some on this site, coz if there is there is not really a point of writing one is there?

I don't recall seeing any articles about Chrome apps, but there are some articles about Chrome extensions. I have provided a short list below, but you should really browse around for yourself.
I am pretty sure everyone will tell you to write an article if you feel you can make a good contribution.

Google Chrome Extension - CodeProject Template Items[^]

That really depends. If you bring something new to the table, or if the existing ones are of poor quality then there's always room for new articles.

Click on "My Articles" from the user menu , You'll get a list of articles that you submitted. All of these links would be attached by a "delete" button - this works for Drafts.

Just click open your article, you'll see "edit" & "delete" icons there. You could use them.

I asked this question for published article.
If your answer is NO, I think deletion for published article must be possible.

This applies to both Drafts & Published Articles.

Check here[^] You get this when you open your article. The trash can symbol means the delete.
Is that clear?

Chris,
Would this be an idea to have Someone host their article (idea)and let someone else (willing) write the code for it?
At work, since I'm getting little chance to code these days my technical relevancy with CP is fading away. I'm trying hard to maintain my link with CP. Besides all these I really have a lot of thoughts for interesting write-ups. After all, that's how my team works. I do the spec the team implements. At times I do code at work only for the sake of making POCs for the team.

You welcome the idea of floating specs for implementation volunteers ?

It's an interesting idea but right now it doesn't really fit with what we do.

However, it your idea will make a little more sense soon. Suspicious | :suss:
