Thanks, I will review those as per newer version articles. Strange that authors revert from their latest version so often.

imho, there's not enough technical meat in this series of rambles, and anecdotes, including vital information like the author forgot the name of a book that gave him the key idea (but, no problem, we can look it up, he says):
Part 1: "He recommended I read an ebook about it, which I did do, and then forgot the name of, but google is your friend." ... with no links, no code ...to ... make one CodeProject article, let alone three.
These are not Happy Meals for the discerning intellect.
thanks, Bill

Did you reported as poor quality or something? That is something you can do.

Well, I think reporting this here is something appropriate I can do; and, I did.
These "articles" are not spam, I think, not directly abusive in the usual sense of that word. And, I see no possible constructive outcome from down-voting them, or commenting on them.
My concern is how content like this "gets through."
cheers, Bill

Although I understand and share your concern about how they "get through", the reports are there for a reason.
I am not telling they are spam, neither I am telling that they are abusive and I am not telling you to give any comment (if you don't want to).
If bad contributions "get through" because there is people cheating or people approving all what it gets in moderation queue or other reason. The only way to contribute to keep the site clean of "bad posts" and the quality level is using the tools we have.
Telling it here was one step, but CP offers the report options of "unclear / incomplete" and "poor quality" as well. And from your opening post, it is easy to read that you consider them poor quality. Then... why don't do it?

I recently submitted a C++ article which was rejected because it supposedly copied some or all work on another blog. This other blog is in fact my own blog, so nothing has been plagiarised. Is there a way to contact the reviewer on Code Project who rejected the article to get this resolved. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

You should not post articles that are just copies of your blog. Use the blog feeder so all your blog articles get loaded automatically.

Hi Richard, imho, I question if re-posts of blogs are really excellent long-run contributions to CP's quality.
But, I note that many people are doing this frequently. And, as I recall, Chris M. said it was okay to blog-re-post in response to a post in Suggs&Bugs I made about one fellow who has done that many times.

Point taken, Bill. My suggestion was merely to help the poster avoid the "is this plagiarised?" cycle.

It would be helpful for authors that repost on CP to indicate their own source, and of course format the article for better reading on CP.
|

There is also a field in the article editor for a link to the original source. Putting a link to the blog there couldn't hurt, and would hopefully avoid the problem; though I agree that the comment about changing your user ID to your real name is a good one.

To avoid such missunderstanding I recommend you to change your nickname from the default name. It can make it easier to see that is your content

Sadly no. In this case we just delete one. Usually the one with fewer votes / popularity.

Hi,
I'm looking at a deleted article: Playing Card Recognition Using AForge.Net Framework by Nazmin Altum
Somebody know if there's the way to get it?
Thanks a lot and Best Regards,

Thanks, but I found only a little part of the article.
Do you know any other place?
Thanks

No, I don't. Sorry. Maybe you could do what I did and plug the title into Google. A cached version might well be available on wayback.

I have no idea who approved this "tip": Calculation TextBox Control[^] - and I note it's now deleted - but it was on the main page and appeared as approved fro a while. Perhaps a quiet word about reading items prior to approval would be appropriate? As it was it was unusable: the control it lauded wasn't even attached as a download!

I can indeed do that, but I'm not 100% sure the story on how this got approved. I will dig in first.
I would be surprised if it were moderators because it is miraculous when technical blog entries and tips get approved without an editors hand. In my experience they don't typically get enough people looking at them and approving them to get the required five approvals. But there are no editors names associated with the public version? Somethin's weird.
Thanks,

That's a relief!
I'm happier with a bug in the system than "rogue moderators" approving anything their mates post...
Mind you, I don't have to find and fix it

Could we have a filter on number of votes, in addition to rating?
Rating can get skewed by peer voting but you'd need to have a big arsenal of buddies to float to the top of the pile.

You're always welcome to report articles as "extremely poor quality." We go through reports later and re-assess poor articles. Real bad ones can be deleted.
