Someone must be secretly adding excellent articles to my collection, as both their number and average rating went up quite a bit. To whom should I send my list of topics I want to see handled next?

The quality and detail of your question reflects on the effectiveness of the help you are likely to get.
Show formatted code inside PRE tags, and give clear symptoms when describing a problem.

Not sure about the list - maybe Sean - but you can send cheques and money orders, or even just cases of good, Belgium beer to myself.

It is unusual seeing you write a pleonasm. I'll have some ready next time you show up in Antwerp.
[EDIT] I mean beers, not pleonasms. [/EDIT]

Here are few suggestions for forums
- Provide buttons to wrap selected text in ordered or unordered list (
<ol> and <ul>) in the compose/reply message page. - Don't encode the allowed HTML tags. e.g:
<li> - When "code block" button is clicked from programming forums, add pre tag with the language attribute. e.g: From C# forum, it will be
<pre lang=cs> - Option to see the whole discussion thread when replying to a message. Now only the message to which we are replying is shown. Showing all discussions will help to quote from different messages

I think chris is working on that one already.
I suggested something similar a month or so back.

Just saw the Catalog page from the Daily News. I really liked that schema and was wondering if their are any plans to migrate to that look or give us the option to use it?
|
|
|
|
|
You only just saw the catalog? 
...anyway.
Is it the colour scheme or the layout you prefer?

I may have seen it before, but I don't recall ever seeing it like that. So depends on when you changed it, if ever, that should tell you how long since I've seen it, if ever.

Both actually. They're both esthetically quite pleasing.

No problem. So far I see a few Beta things. Anything in particular you want me to check?

As per this[^] page, if no language attribute is specified with <pre> tag, default colorization will be C++ style. I added <pre lang=cs> to get C# colorization, but I am seeing no difference in the output. Some keywords are also missing to color when using C# coloring. For e.g: yield.

Can you point me to the article you are editing? I can try seeing what's going on.

Its a forum post. See here[^]. You can see yield is not colored.

Fixed.

I've been using the following RSS feed for quick access to C# articles (which is tons better than the default junk that loads on the Visual Studio start page):
http://www.codeproject.com/webservices/articlerss.aspx?cat=3
However it appears to be pulling in questions from the Message Boards now. So is there a new feed for C# articles now? (Or am I going to have to switch back to the default RSS feed for the VS start page?  )

Just about to reply to a message in The Lounge and got the normal, except the header looked like this:
Forum: The Lounge
Subject: Oh...my...god...somebody PLEASE convince me I'm not crazy
Sender: Mike Marynowski
Date: Wednesday, August 26, 2009 12:07 AM
on a blue background, a bit like an email header...
Never noticed it before, which must mean either a) I'm unobservant b) I've had a few too many or c) Something's changed...

Just uploaded some new code so you would have experienced a slight disturbance in the Force.

All normal forums are a single click on the sidebar away from each other. TO get at a private forum needs three clicks (my profile - groups - group name). Going the other direction I need to either use the back button repeatedly, or use the dropdown messageboard menu to reach one of the "important" boards first. Could any that you have access to be integrated into the forum sidebar instead on a per user basis?

How about I give you the option of pinning up to 10 favourite forums to the forum sidebar?
