AFAIK, that only happens when someone abuses the "spam" / "abuse" reporting options on the message. Do you also have a "posted spam or abusive message" event at around the same time?
(Don't ask me why they do it. Some people obviously just can't cope with not being able to anonymously down-vote something they disagree with. )

Thank you very much for the hint, you are right. I must have been blind, just next line is:
-Mar-17 8:37PM 0 Participant Posted spam or abusive message Forum Message Mandatory hint what changed for article/tip/trick which Need "re approvement"
Now I understand at least the -8
Thanks again

Don't worry, I never thought it was you.
And I also don't care about the Points, it was only suspect for me how it is possible to downvote while downvote button is disabled

I can see the contents in this article. It looks fine to me.
Anything unusual on your machine? Or are you pointing out anything specific?

I see the contents now. Do you know what causing it? Perhaps some caching issue?

I saw this post[^], read it and was trying to answer - it gave me "posted 2 mins ago".
I couldn't post the answer because "The message is not available", I returned to the Lounge and the message was currently under review as potential spam.
IMHO The message shouldn't be visible when the spam filter traps it, and the spam filter should act before the actual publication.

Actually the message should be displayed with a "not available, in moderation" message until someone let it through or nuke it.
I have seen that behavior several times, and I personally find it good

My point was that the message has been visible for a while, the the spam filter edited and "removed" it and then it returned visible when the protectors let it pass.

The reason the message is there is to let the poster know what's happened. If messages just disappear without any visibility, they could post the message again, with the same effect. This leads to frustrated users, very quickly.

That's not what I meant, I meant that for a couple of minutes the post, with the full content of it, was visible and it could be answered to. After a couple of minutes the post has been caught by the spam filter and its content substituted with the standard text "Message in moderation".
So the flow was (assuming it is a spam message)
1) Message "Hey, check out these skimpy girls for hire in /location/" appears on the lounge, with full spam payload.
2) Minutes pass with the spam message fully visible and interactive (meaning I could post answers to that)
3) Spam filter wakes up and locks the message, changing the text with its "moderation queue".
It's point 1 that is not right as the spam filter should filter the message before its original content are posted to the world.

You got in the same thinking error than me...
What he means is... message got into the lounge fully normal, he wanted to answer something and in the time writing the answer then the filters went active and took the message to moderation.

In this sequence, it means that the message got past the Spam Filter, and someone flagged it as Spam.

Is it so? I mean, if someone flags a message, then the filters have a second look on it?

Maybe it is already so and I do not recognize it...
In case an article/tip/trick is modified and needs to be approved again (this is is a new version of the currently published article/tip/trick) it would be nice, that the author needs to give some hints what has changed. This will make the approvement process much more easy.
But, I have no idea at the Moment where to place this Information. I only be Aware it does not Need to be in an release history which some authors place at the end of an article. It makes no sense to push authors to notify each and every typo there.
Question related to approvement:
In case an publication does not satisfy the criterions I choose "Extremely poor Quality". Is this the right choice?
I'm asking this because in the rep Point history it will be shwon as "Report object" which has a bad smell for me; sounds like reporting an abuse
Side Note:
While writing the whole Thing above, the preview Shows finally only "is is a new version of the currently published tip/trick.". Ok, this time with IE, I know I should not use it
