If you hover with mouse over the solution you provided you should see a green link "Improve solution" inside the box containing your answer. Click that and it should let you edit your text.
Just tested with the solution you provided and as far as I can see, seems to work.

Thanks for your reply Mika.
I know how "Improve" works ... and you are right : it works. I think, I stumbled over the changed design - my mistake ... sorry

My question is how the "Needs help" reports are handled on pending and published articles.
Are these reports inspected in some way?
Does the author get a feedback about the reports (I never got one but that may be due to missing reports)?
It happens frequently that articles get approved after I (and others according to the displayed count) have reported an article.
In such cases I'm often reporting the published article again because the moderation reports did not count anymore.
But I did not see if there is something happening (maybe because an editor is fixing the article and publishing it without moderation).
BTW:
How about an additional Report option with copyright issues (for images)?
The current handling of reporting those articles as "Format / layout issues" does not prevent articles from being published while a report might do so.

To my knowledge a "Needs help" report doesn't disappear after an article is approved by the community. So there are two ways this report gets addressed:
a) An editor catches the report before an article is approved and makes the change to the article either while in pending status or in the process of approving it.
b) I go through all reports and eventually come across it and address it.
I think a report for copyright images would be a good idea. In the meantime, please feel free to email me any you spot.

Thank you for your answer Sean. So you and other editors are handling it.
Quote: To my knowledge a "Needs help" report doesn't disappear after an article is approved by the community.
This might be true but the feedback implies it is not so:
I have reported a pending article for offsite images not being the first one (the report count was greater than one). When reporting the meanwhile approved article later, the report count showed "1". Such happened more than once.

Then I think we should ensure that so when an article is approved by the community and not an editor those reports stay.

Starrydb new memory database - CodeProject[^]
Reaons why I am unsure,
1. It is a article / code dump about a memory database that he has appears to have created
2. there is a link in there to his own blog as a title in the article.
3. there is little discussion about the database product.
should it be marked as spam? or needs more work?
Thanks

Thanks for the report. I've removed the article and asked the author to do more code sharing and less tool sharing to get it back.

The article DICOM Grayscale Softcopy Presentation State module editor[^] is using a 3rd party DLL which is provided in the download package. But the author is working for the company providing the DLL and the DLL sources are not available.
I don't want to report it even while the article contains a link to the company. The user is rather inactive but member since nine years.
Maybe @sean-ewington can speak to her first.

I was just looking at this. Thank you for the report. Unfortunately this is a no-no and the article must go-go.

I am asking this because, I am new to article moderation.

Do you think it has anything to do with the subjects generally discussed on CodeProject?

I suppose that "Abusive/Troll" and "Spammer" are misused by me.
If "Mayfly" were available I'd be less likely to type stuff on that line. Perhaps be more introspective.

Chris and I have been talking about Tips and Tricks posts. Over the years there have been number of issues with the classifications of tips:
- The line where you draw the distinction between an article and a tip is somewhat nebulous
- New authors coming in to share content being held at the door and lectured on the difference between an article and a tip before they're let in
- The time moderators spend on educating new authors on this distinction
- The sad feeling new authors get in their hearts when they think they've written an article and are told "no you haven't"
I think over the years this idea that a tip is, "anything that is unworthy of being an article," or, "a tip is anything that is too short to be an article" has developed, but that's not what we had in mind.
So we're going to clarify what a tip is: A Tips and Tricks post is a single problem, with a single solution, and a super-short write-up. Ideally you could consume it in under 30 seconds. Here is an example of a tip:
Kendo UI NumericTextBox Enable/Disable Issue[^]
I realize this goes against the understanding of many (and I believe everyone has a slightly different line). I also realize that the majority of existing tips are actually articles under this clarification. We'll be doing a reclassification at some point of all existing tips to help make the distinction between what WAS a tip and what IS NOW a tip a little easier to follow moving forward.
I will be in the trenches of the articles needing approval queue to help transition this new definition to new content as smoothly as possible and I'm happy to help answer the case-by-case post question we get as we forge this new distinctive line together. Thank you.
Thanks,
