Did you receive feedback on the articles? Did you understand and act upon that feedback? The usual reason articles get deleted is because they are poorly constructed or simply do not contain enough to qualify as articles. If the issue is your ability to write English then ask for help. First and foremost, though, did you read and understand the article writing guidelines? Did you read some of the successful articles to see what it is that is expected of you? Far too many people attempt to publish sub-standard articles without having done any of the above and are, inexplicably, shocked when they don't get published.

Some people will really like the articles you public; others won't. That's why articles can be rated.
My problem is with people who rate an article down, and offer no explantion as to why. Did you get a 1 because there are obvious bugs (to everyone else) in your code? Are you fluffing up something that is irrelevant or already general knowledge? Is your example confusing? Does your explanation wander more than a drunken housefly? Did someone click to your article looking for porn and get annoyed when there wasn't any?
Just rating an article isn't very helpful. If there was some way to connect the act of rating with a comment -- maybe even move the rating into the comments section -- authors could get more feedback that will help them improve with latter articles, or at least direct an author on where the article needs to be rewritten. Thoughts?

For a long time already, voting 1 or 2 on an article requires a message (which could be almost empty and not tell you anything).
FYI: the "suggestions & bugs" forum would be the right place to discuss this.

Many people now hide behind a vote of 3 since it the lowest vote you can give without a comment. If you feel that a one vote is malicious or undeserved or the comment is plainly dumb then ask for it to be removed.
I published an article which got mostly 5's. Then it got a 4. Fine: why did you vote it down? Then 2 3s without an explanation. WTF? How does that work? If the majority of my peers like it at least be good enough to elucidate the problem, should there really be one.
In reality you just have to grin and bear it: there will always be people that down vote anything just because they can: not worth losing sleep over. It is just an article.

Hi:
I’m new in Code Project and I’m writing an article to submit. I developed some framework with several modules and I am able to submit the source code of all the modules but one. So, can I submit my framework having one module with its executable file and no source code?
Thanks in advance,
migue

I don't think source code is required exactly, but it is expected. It allows the author (you, in this case) to focus on two or three highlights rather than write a complete project in the article itself. I have also found it useful to have a ready-to-go project that I can tinker with and print out when I'm working with someone else's stuff: I have found useful bits in the source that had nothing at all to do with the article itself.
Also, I personally download only the source, never the compiled executables. This is a basic security measure. An article that provides an executable and no source strikes me as risky (not that members of Code Project would ever do anything shady, of course.)
My recommendation would be to wait until you have a complete project with all of your modules. You might be able to split your article into two or three pieces, each with its own project; that way, you can publish Part 1 now, and wait a few weeks with Part 2 until you get that code finished and working.

Hi All,
Recently I find myself presented with a box asking me to moderate articles with a "Make Article Publicly Visibe" button. Is this a new thing for everyone or have I been made a moderator / Editor???
Cheers,

You've now achieved a high enough status to moderate articles. It's a thankless task.

Do not hit 'reply' to this email: To reply, click here
The link is www.codeproject.com/Messages/3391903/Pedant.aspx but this comes up with an error.
How can I reply to PIEBALDconsult as I'd like further clarification. The article was at

This suggests that the article was awaiting approval when the message was sent to you. Once an article is approved or deleted, the comments are lost."WPF has many lovers.

Hi,
I’m just curious why my last article Tag cloud with jQuery effect[^] did not hit the CP front page in 10 last updates section.
Thanks in advance, Petr.

Yesterday I posted an article, but today I can't find it, why?

Your article was not approved by the community and has lost visibility.
I think your article would work better in our Tips & Tricks section. I'd be happy to change the status of your article so you can post it there.
We are running a contest for this section right now. If you post this content as a trick you might win an iPod touch!Thanks,

So why my article was not approved by the community? Format? Or content? Or just wrong section? And at least I should see my article

| The usual process is that people will read your article and make comments as to whether it is ready to be published. If the reviewers think that it needs more work they will post messages in the forum at the end of the article, and you should receive notification of these comments by email. If you have not received any messages you should check under the "Forums" tag in your membership settings, and enable the email selector. txtspeak is the realm of 9 year old children, not developers.
