Hi
I saved an article which is in work progress state but now it is disappeared from my profile.
Can someone please restore it for me.
The title is 'All you need to know about scoping in Javascript'

|
|
|
Drafts are also shown on the Submit a new Article[^] page; any chance you can find it there?

Usually the drafts are there but nothing is there in this occasion.

I see. Unfortunately I cannot help you then, you'll probably need to wait for a staff member to respond.

Thanks for trying anyway. I'll wait for a staff member to see if they can restore it for me.
I have spent days to compile it. Hope they could restore it.

I've checked everywhere and there's no sign of it. Not in the versions table, not in the working article table, and not in the pending articles.
cheers

Hi Chris
Thank you for checking. Let me start it over again.
|
|
|
|

Definitely something is going on. I started it all over again , completed almost the whole article. Then I went to see the help for styling from the article page ( At that point I saved the draft to make sure) and then came back to retrieve the draft everything is gone but my uploaded images and source still there.
Can someone please help me to retrieve it? I never had this problem before ....

I can see lots of auto-saved versions of the article. You have the article locked so I can't touch it, but once you close your browser (or 15 mins is up) then I can go in and revert it.
Alternatively I can just email the content I see in our database.
cheers

This may be the closest to the line that distinguishes an article from a tip that I've ever seen.
Tips are generally shorter, and often "how-to" posts that covers the basics of a problem and how to solve it.
While we don't exactly welcome tool/utility/etc. sharing we sometimes put these in Tips & Tricks if they cover the problem, usage, and offer some explanation, such as in your post.
Articles are exhaustive works that aim to teach the reader as much as possible on the subject. Why did you start working on your project? What problem were you trying to solve? What did you learn along the way that could benefit others? How do most of the bits work? What are the concepts that a reader might need to understand before beginning your article?
Here’s an article example from one of our top authors:
http://www.codeproject.com/Articles/225692/Html5-WebWorkers-experiment
His primary goal is to demonstrate “Using HTML5 WebWorkers and a custom jQuery plug-in to create a Flickr image wall.” He treats the reader like a beginner. He defines jQuery, explains what WebWorkers are, then gets into why he wanted to create a jQuery plugin. Each progressive section of the article expands on his topic, thoroughly explains the code, explains the limitations he chose in his scope, discusses how each element to his plug-in works, and provides numerous code examples.
As I said, you're basically there. You doing all the things you're supposed to be doing, but it feels a little bit like a quick fly-by, rather than full-bodied course in a lecture hall. Extremely close distinction though, closest I've seen.
Thanks,

Hi, I came across an interesting recent (Dec. 18) article here today that does not include source in its downloadable, but does include necessary 'dlls for running its "tutorial" sample [^].
It occurred to me that I had never thought about whether it is a requirement to include source, so, read the CP article FAQ, but could not find any clear statement on this.
The author of the article comments on a reader-comment that they are thinking about including the source.
Appreciate clarification.
thanks, Bill

If a dll is provided but no code then we'd need a very good reason why there's no code. A dll without code may contain malicious code.
Beyond that, where a code sharing, not an application sharing site.
Let the code be free.

Would this article[^] be misleading? It shows the completely wrong way to do what it tries to do, and such blatantly incorrect (and possibly dangerous) information shouldn't be allowed on a site that values quality (e.g. this site), IMO.
What think you guys?

He keeps posting really poor quality 'articles', and ignores every comment about what he is doing wrong. I think it may be time for him to be removed.

Member has posted a few 'articles' in the last few weeks - none of them went public, and for the very same reason - extremely poor quality...

Alex: Fix it? How you gonna fix this?
Skipper: Grit, spit and a whole lotta duct tape.

He just won't learn, will he?

I wander, how you pick articles for best article contest?
Article in Database category http://www.codeproject.com/Articles/1046120/Friday-the-th-JSON-is-coming-to-SQL-Server has 4.97 out of 35 votes but it is not in article contest for November.

It starts with tags. This one has the correct tags. Something may be wrong. We'll dig in
Thanks,
