Thank you for adding more tags in the article editor. Much obliged!
But, isn't Android a platform? I can only find, Google there and no Android. It would be helpful in adding articles under Android also.
Also. When would these changes reflect the "Sections" settings? Articles are less categorized under tags, and are categorized more often based on the "Section" they are posted under. So, I guess, that also needs some of your attention.

Android is definitely there, and marked as a platform.

Tags and sections are separate beasts. A section is essentially a topic: what it's about. Tags are meant to reflect what it's written in (Language), where it runs (Platform), who it's for (Audience) and how hard is it (Skill Level). We have the type "Topic" to allow members to add tags that aren't reflected elsewhere

Good catch, question is. Why did they tag it in the first place.

I could have sworn I saw at least one of those in the Web Dev ... maybe something is screwy. Maybe that thing is me.
Thanks,

A user has managed to make a question in QA which can't be opened without digging into the HTML source of the page:
<compilation debug="true" strict="false" explicit="true" targetFramework="4.0">[^]
Screen-shot of the problem:
Quick_Answers_-_CodeProject_-_Mozilla_Firefox.png (17.4 KB)
HTML source:
<h3 id="ctl00_ctl00_MC_AMC_Entries_ctl02_SearchDoc_H" class="title">
<a id="ctl00_ctl00_MC_AMC_Entries_ctl02_SearchDoc_ArticleLink" class="link" data-ref="2_1037893" href="//www.codeproject.com/Questions/1037893/compilation-debugequals-true-strictequals-false-ex?arn=2"></a>

As you can see, the entire title has been stripped out of the link.

There's a first: my vote/comment for this article: [^]
Leads to this e-mail:
from: Webmaster <webmaster@codeproject.com>
"Your message 'My vote of 5' has been marked as potentially being spam and is currently in the moderation queue pending approval.
CodeProject"
Note my status page does show that the comment appeared to have been posted twice: I have no idea what caused that.

Perhaps a "double vote" has registered and that "tripped a wire" somewhere ?

Spam detector detects messages based on keywords,so many messages get trapped frequently. At the moment,i see no messages in moderation queue,not even yours. Both your messages are published.
Duplicate message seems bug to me.

Thanks, Rohan, It's strange that both those messages now have the 'Delete option disabled ... so I can't remove one of them.
cheers, Bill

I see the delete option. I can remove one of them on your behalf if you wish to.

Why don't you ask Chris and crew to place you in the trusted member list. That way you don't have this spam issue anymore, like I used to get. Just a thought.

Hi, Slacker007,
Naive moi: I wasn't aware I wasn't a trusted member

Like I mentioned to Rohan, Chris did something and I no longer get my posts flagged for spam. What exactly he did, I don't know. So, the terminology I am using is probably incorrect, but it wouldn't hurt for you to reach out to him or Sean on this.

As per as i know, there is no such thing. Everyone's message got caught in past, even of Protector's.

I don't get blocked for spam anymore. Chris did something on his side, and I am good to go. Maybe "safe sender" "trusted member" list is not the correct terminology, but I no longer get my posts queued for spam.
That is what I was trying to convey.

The spam filter is learning and is getting better, that's all.

The latest competition doesn't appear to be tagging articles with the usual "this is a competition entry and doesn't follow the usual rules for articles" header when they arrive in moderation - is this a mistake, or are we supposed to treat them as "full articles" and recommend them as tips or reject them this time?
Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...

Absolutely.
This is an article writing contest. Entries must be articles.

Just when I was starting to feel like I wanted to spend time answering QA questions again: [^].
Note the listing of who closed version #1 of the post shows this member: [^]. This person is a newcomer to CodeProject with very little participation in the site.
The other two people listed as closing the post, for version #2, Tadit Dash, and Rohan Leuva, are, however, "veterans" here, and, imho, far too "quick on the trigger" to close questions, as are many other CP old-timers.
I would like to think that my over 13 years participation in this site, and my track record of quality answers to QA questions ... is respected.
thanks, Bill

Sadly, there are way too many itchy trigger fingers. I'm happy for posts to be closed if they are abusive or spam but closing due to some perceived quality issue, that I have a problem with. I don't know why we don't just try to help improve the way people ask questions.

I know how you feel, this happened to me once and then I just gave up on actively participating in Q&A, in other words I don't often write answers any more.
To me the problem is not just with the closing of badly written or duplicated questions, the problem lies with how the veterans often treat these newcomers.
There questions are being down-voted on regular basis, now I don't think the newcomers mind or care or even are aware of this, but to me this just comes off as if the Q&A is full of impatient or even hateful developers...
I don't know why most of developers participate in Q&A, but I just got a feeling that the reason is not in order to help other, it seems like its about something else...
