It seems all of the articles needing approval have no actual body and no comments section.
Correction: Not all. Just the first three or four currently
Failure is not an option; it's the default selection.

Your authorative DNS server seems to be returning an address on the 192.168.0.0/16 subnet.
> set type=all
> service1.codeproject.com
Server: XXXXXXXXXXXXX
Address: XXXXXXXXXXXXXX
Non-authoritative answer:
service1.codeproject.com internet address = 192.168.6.41
service1.codeproject.com internet address = 65.39.148.45
codeproject.com nameserver = service1.codeproject.com
codeproject.com nameserver = remote2.easydns.com
codeproject.com nameserver = service2.codeproject.com
codeproject.com nameserver = ns6.easydns.net
codeproject.com nameserver = remote1.easydns.com
codeproject.com nameserver = ns2.easydns.com
codeproject.com nameserver = ns1.easydns.com
codeproject.com nameserver = ns3.easydns.org
service2.codeproject.com internet address = 192.168.6.42
service2.codeproject.com internet address = 65.39.148.46
ns6.easydns.net internet address = 72.52.2.1

DNS Servers often have multiple IP addresses associated to them. I find it strange that you are getting this result back, what is it that you are looking for? Are you having issues connecting to the website?
Are you doing this from windows with nslookup? What version of windows and whats the version number on NS Lookup?
If you do an nslookup and set-type=ns then codeproject.com you should get back the following.
> set type=all
> set type=ns
> codeproject.com
Server: service1.codeproject.com
Address: 65.39.148.45
codeproject.com nameserver = ns1.easydns.com
codeproject.com nameserver = ns2.easydns.com
codeproject.com nameserver = service2.codeproject.com
codeproject.com nameserver = service1.codeproject.com
ns1.easydns.com internet address = 64.68.192.210
ns1.easydns.com AAAA IPv6 address = 2001:1838:f001::10
ns2.easydns.com internet address = 72.52.2.1
service2.codeproject.com internet address = 65.39.148.46
service1.codeproject.com internet address = 65.39.148.45

Vince,
I tested the codeproject DNS servers from my equipment located in New Orleans, San Francisco and Roubaix France. If you look further down from this post you will see users that were complaining that they were unable to connect to www.codeproject.com. and I was also having the same problem and investigated. That is when I discovered the DNS misconfiguration.
There is nothing to disscuss. The codeproject DNS was misconfigured and was fixed shortly after I made this post several months ago.
Best Wishes,

I've just written my second article in a long time and the article editor is giving me nightmares  I'm sorry for being so blunt. But after spending most of my time in text editors (simple HTML / markdown) it's really hard to get a good structure with your editor.
My last article (submitted for editors) looked nice when I wrote it and saved it. But now the code syntax is wierd and many of my paragraphs have been merged into a single one.
Can't you please add an alternative editor or just add support for markdown (i.e. a simple textarea which will convert markdown to HTML when submitted)?
I don't think that I'll write another article if I have to use the current editor or upload CP formatted HTML. All you'll get is just tech blog entries from me.

You have the option of hitting the "HTML" button at the far right of the editor toolbar to get you into straight HTML mode.
Which article? If you wish you can send me your HTML and I'll try posting to see what's going on. Anything specific?
As to Markdown, we've been toying with that.

I've seen a few Markdown editors and it's great to see you've packaged up one so neatly. I want to extend the idea, though, and not simply have a Markdown editor with preview, but a true WYSIWYG markdown editor.
The only hurdle we're facing, since we have the code to handle all the switching between the built in browser's WYSIWYG editor and a HTML-only mode is converting HTML to Markdown. Our current editor, when you switch from WYSIWYG to HTML mode takes the HTML from the browser's editor and places it in a Textarea. Simple. To make a Markdown WYSIWYG editor all we need is to take that HTML and convert it to Markdown via javascript.
The most promising candidate I've seen so far (quick look, zero investigation) is http://www.prolificnotion.co.uk/convert-html-to-plain-text-in-c-using-markdown[^]. The biggest issue seems to be with webKit processing of XSLT. the jQuery transform plugin looks like it would be great - except that the jQuery.com SNAFU that resulted in all plugin's being lost means I can't find a copy of the plugin file (though I'm sure there are tons of copies lying around)

Markdown and similar formatting languages are typically referred to as WYSIWYM[^]. Hence it would, imho, defeat the purpose to use Markdown if you wrap it in a WYSIWYG editor.
Users which see the markdown option would expect to get a syntax aid toolbar (contra a formatting toolbar) and not a fully blown editor which hides the markdown. I would humbly ask you to at least do a poll before choosing to go down that path.
Trying to convert existing HTML to Markdown is nothing I've done. I always save the unmodified text in one column and the generated HTML in another.

I would always provide a formatting toolbar and a Markdown-view in the editor. It would never be a WYSIWY(G|M)-only option.

Just use HTML edit-mode and check the leave-my-HTML-alone checkbox. And you should be good.

Good idea.
I have a different idea which works good for me. Do some basic WYSIWYG editing and switch to HTML-only mode, just to have some samples of the code and see what markup and classes are used.
Using the samples obtained, copy them to an editor of your liking. For example, I either use my own plain-text editor with HTML (or other) plug-ins or Visual Studio HTML editor.
Complete the article. Check it up with your browser.
Start CodeProject submission process again, go to the HTML-only mode and copy/paste all your HTML to the CodeProject editor window, all at once.
Check up the submitted article with you browser as it appears on CodeProject Web site.
I had some problem with my very first article, but by the moment I wanted to publish my second one, I came to this procedure which never let me down ever since. 
Good luck,
—SAP.S.: Nish, sorry that I put it in reply to your comment. Of course this post is mostly for OP.

I've been trying to modify my profile for the last few days, and I've been systematically presented with the rodents. See an example at http://www.rilhas.com/CodeProject/rodents.jpg[^].
Today I tried changing my picture and saving, and that worked. But trying to turn on the daily newsletter continues to fail.
I have no idea about what may be happening, but I'm starting to think the CodeProject's crew doesn't get informed of these occurrences, so here is one.

This is a new friendly error message.
I have the same problem but my article is lost and same error is shown see My article is lost[^]

We watch all error logs carefully, but the logs often tell us what happened, not what the user was trying to do.
My guess it's related to a network issue we've seen, so your report here could be the bit we've been waiting for.

When you write "network issue" I immediately think of "intermittent problem". But so far it has happened to me very consistently, of the 4 or 5 times I've tries to activate the daily newsletter the rodents appeared 100.000% of the time.
So if you need help traking it I'm pretty confident I can generate the error on demand. Let me know if you need someone to push the button on this end.

We've been seeing network errors but I've just tried logging in as you, updating your newsletter settings, and saving, and it all went through without even a burp.

I made some more tests and I found a pattern. I wrote you an extensive message about it, but maybe because my tests were made during a period where the message page was open the whole message got lost to the rodents. So I'll type it again (highlights only without many details of the tests, sorry!).
I noticed a pattern:
a) login
b) edit some setting
c) save the settings
d) succeed
e) edit some other setting
f) save the settings
g) get the rodents (and the settings are not saved)
h) manually edit the address to go back to CodeProject's home page
i) edit some setting
j) login is required so I login
k) go back to c)
On my previous tests I tried again by clicking "back" on the browser, getting some "page expired" error, insisting, getting some more errors, insisting again, and insisting some more until I got to a CodeProject page that I recognized. This because the rodents page does not have a link for me to go back to CodeProject (which I think it should, by the way, in order to be friendly).
In this new sequence of tests I manually edited the address bar link to go back to CodeProject's home page, which consistently required me to login at some point.
So I guess the problem is probably related to some corruption or invalid state that occurs when I save the settings once. So saving the settings a second time manifests the problem. Logging in seems to clear this corrupted state, and so I'm able to edit and save settings after that.
This explains why I so consistently got rodents on my first tests (no re-login), and why I now so consistently succeeded in saving after logging in but got the rodents on the second save attempt. It also explains why you were able to log in as me, edit, and save, in case you happened to do it only once.
The obvious follow up test is to try a shorter login->edit->save->login->edit->save... loop to confirm the rodents never show up, but I don't have more time today and I fear I may lose this message to the rodents too if I do any more tests before sending it.
I hope this helps.
