can the OP remove a question after others have taken the time to respond or was some other mechanism involved?

Yes. To both.

The OP can remove the question (and others with sufficient privilege can un-delete it). Deleting your own question is extremely rude and we should probably deduct a poo-load of points for doing so after someone else has answered the question. However, we still need to offer this feature because (a) there are legitimate reasons to delete a question, and (b) you can always just edit and wipe clean a question.

There are other mechanisms that can close a quetion, namely reporting. A question that's poorly posed, off-topic or abuse can be closed if enough members vote it off the island.

Already implemented for Articles, Blogposts & Tips/Tricks( and Q/A Questions & answers too I think).

But it's not working for Reference articles. I tried the below one but not getting automatic title on paste.

Looks great[^]. Expecting more pages soon.

And one question. Why these[^] have been removed from menu(I think 'Features')? Those're also good.

You get a gold elephant star for having such an excellent memory.

We will create more Learn/* areas and we'll be reworking the old Zones and extending and embracing them (as the saying goes). The old zones were never quite what I wanted. They will be put out to pasture (officially).

I guess he meant an actual elephant, not in the sense of MM. Laugh | :laugh:

IF I'd been on the turps and said it properly I would have said "You get an elephanting gold elephant star".

There is a little bug in QA. The names of who ask questions is being displayed twice.

Have a look at this: http://s20.postimg.org/cgs41x4hp/repeating_member_names.png[^]

I see it when I follow that link. So, as far as I can tell, it only behaves like that on the 'New' tab in QA.

For some reason my last article was not downloaded from my blog.

Old messages are hit and miss at the moment but we (And by we, I mean Matthew) are busting our bums putting in place better caching that will make this problem go away.

It was in the pending queue waiting to be approved. I had the honour of posting the last approval vote.

Writing an article when...

I think I already complained about this when writing my last article (which is quite a while ago).
When I use formatting to write a code block when writing an article the cursor just jumps randomly to other places in the code block (always in the same line I think, and mostly the beginning of the line of right after a space or tab).
So wanting to write the following sentence:

This is just an example

Could easily result in the following:

st an pleexamis juThis

It's quite impossible to write anything in those code blocks!
Of course the workaround is to write it in other places and then copy/paste it, but why can't I just stay in the article submission editor...

Other than that it seems to insert random spaces at the end of your cursor or after a new line.

It's an OO world.

    public void DoWork(){ throw new NotImplementedException(); }

Firefox? Or another browser?

I'm tackling this issue tonight.

Oops, Chrome. Hope you get this fixed. It's really annoying.
I'll try working in another browser tonight.
Thanks.

I am currently working in IE and it is even worse! When I want to type in a code block it selects the code block as a whole. When I double click I am able to type, but the cursor really goes in all directions...
What's even worse is that I can't even type regular text. The editor is slow and inserts random spaces like crazy! Chrome only inserts random spaces at the end of a line when you move to another line. IE just inserts them while typing. I just typed 'T h e ' and was not able to remove to characters by using backspace. Only when I kept my finger on backspace for a few seconds was I able to remove all at once.

FireFox actually seems to work best out of Chrome, IE and FireFox. The cursor still moves around in the code blocks, but random spaces are not inserted (or so it seems). I'll continue working in FF for now. I was getting a little tired of Chrome anyway Wink | ;)
