Ha, that had me fooled. In my world, something that is removed, deleted, closed, ... is no longer visible or readable. I wonder what words they will come up with when something would really be gone.

IMHO, this article should not have been removed. It might have some problems, but its subject matter is unique. There was some comment about it being spam, but that was unwarranted. Pete and I both left messages about how the article could be improved.
Admins, please restore it. Also, please implement some kind of lock to prevent articles being mentored from being removed. I was really surprised this could happen.

Whoever reopened the article, thank you. I'm pleased to see it's back.

I've emailed the author as well. We'll figure out a way so this doesn't happen again. One possible solution is to de-activate existing reports on the article being Mentored. I'm a little surprised we ran into this scenario, however, since so few people can see an article in composing status.
Thanks,

Thanks, Sean. I'm glad we could let the author know what was going on. Really liked this one.

Thanks Sean. I really think that voting should be disallowed when an article is picked up to be mentored. It might be worth having some mechanism whereby mentors can indicate that they are ready to offer their advice, and the article status cannot be changed until a mentor says that they are happy that the article is as good as it's going to get.

It's a design flaw, the fact that the reporting dropdown works when an article is in the composing-state.

I agree, mentoring does not factor into this, it is all about composing.

When it's in composing state it should not be reportable, though it will be visible to members with enough rep (eg mentors).
I've reopened it and will check to ensure reporting is only available when pending/available.

Sean[^] claimed to've reopened it an hour before you did. Is someone trying to grab credit, or did idiots vote to close it a second time?

When I tried to create my tip/trick with the title "JavaScript String.Replace", I got a message saying that the subject line needs to be between 3 and 50 characters. If I replaced the period with a space, the message went away. I missed my period

Congratulations are in order then.
I'm not sure how "JavaScript String", "Replace", or some concatenation thereof gets outside the [3,50] length range...

Interesting. What it's actually meant to do is also warn you that your title must be at least 3 words.
Mystery explained? (and I'll add a bug report)

Actually, looks like it does say that: "Please keep the subject between 3 and 50 words." I got confused because of the character counter next to the error message.
Still, whether or not this is 3 words is debatable. I have updated the title to be "String.Format in JavaScript" and it's working just fine. Thanks.

All this talk about periods makes me want to watch Oprah.
