Chris has recently added 521 articles from Wiki.ASP.NET and all Bronze member have rights to edit these articles.
I found this article .NET Framework 3.5 Namespaces[^] which is only a link. It links to a MSDN blog which itself contains only links to various formats of a poster "Commonly Used Types and Namespaces".
What should be done with this?

I invented a system and the software and source code are here on CP. I first invented it around 1999 when I was teaching myself Windows C programming. I posted it here in 2000.
In the comments section of my article a user sent me a message about how he was granted a patent, seemingly on my invention. He listed its number and I downloaded it. http://www.rock-technologies.com/Downloads/Patent/P6090/US020060168106A1_all_pages.pdf[^]When I read it I thought I was reading my own thoughts.
He has done one thing since his 7 years of membership and that was to send me an email today with his patented information. Do you think he has been planning this? Am I overreacting? Thoughts and advice please!?!

If this is the case then I'm fairly sure you can challenge a patent by posting a link to your article as prior art.

Thank you for the solid advice!

I went through this with some public domain source of my own (Microsoft is the patent holder...). My work is listed as prior art in the patent text. I talked with a patent attorney at my company, and he told me that if I submitted the work in public domain, then anybody was free to copy/use it. In fact he interrupted me and gave me the answer before I finished my first sentence. This is apparently a common "rubber stamp" question in the patent world.
The main thing to consider is that when you make something public domain, you make it available for anybody in the world to use for any reason whatsoever (including making money from your work).

I voted "Unclear or Incomplete", because in this message[^], I've read what a competition article must include:
- The platform and category you're targeting (Entertainment or Games for All-In-One and Education, Healthcare, Finance or Retail for Tablets)
- Overview of the application and what it does (a one sentence pitch/tagline will do!)
- Description of the intended uses for the application presented in writing and/or visually (this is where you can get into more detail)
- The approach taken to develop the application (tell us a little bit about how you'll turn your idea into a working demo app if you're chosen as a finalist to move onto Round 2 and receive a Windows 8 touch-enabled device from Lenovo)
- The coding languages to be used (pretty straight forward, tell us what languages and development tools you'll be using)
- Updated CodeProject bio with some information about your software development history
The article is missing most of this information, so I voted "Unclear or Incomplete"

I've received a reply to one of my posts in the C++/MFC message boards at the beginning of July. I've indeed given a wrong answer and the reply to it was the following: http://www.codeproject.com/Messages/4606116/Re-my-exe-appears-in-task-manager-after-closing.aspx[^]
Since then I've received other posts with the same morale-destroying offensive style. Many of his posts around that message board have an insulting side by degrading others and I simply can't imagine a context in which marking somebody as idiot or anything similar would be appropriate on codeproject. It would be nice to be able to block him so as to prevent receiving notifications about his posts. I've never came across any other members I wanted to ignore but this time I became interested even about the "Report member" button but I didn't want to pull the trigger as I don't know how what that feature does.

Report member for abuse is definitely the way to go. Thank you for reporting this. This isn't his first report, and it won't be his last. I'll be keeping a close eye on him.

Thank you, I tried out the report member feature! Can you tell me how does this member reporting feature work? Will he be warned in some way before closing his account? Just closing an account is sometimes not effective as creation of a new one is easy...

I believe there is no warning. Just a message indicating why your account was de-activated when it happens. My impression is that people get attached to their profiles. It's pretty effective.

Sean - Erudite_Eric has had many, many accounts. They often get closed and he seems to take a perverse joy in it. He used to be known as fat_boy.

Using this feature, you can flag members. If 5 members would flag a spammer, then the account of the spammer gets closed.

Wow. Just wow. That is quite an attitude.
First: calm down. Almost everybody here is a volunteer, there are about 10-20 staff, the rest of the 10,000,000 members aren't. Pretty much everyone you are dealing with (me included) is doing this for free. Getting annoyed at like this is just going to make people not like you, and make them less likely to help. Going on about how good your article is, won't help your case either, the people who review articles tend to be pretty experienced. If you can find bad articles, then the probability is that they shouldn't have been published and have slipped through the net.
Secondly: your tip is published. People have voted on it, and it is doing well so far. So I don't see the need for this post at all.

How can we mark a method as deprecated in c#?[^]
This is in the c# article competition right now, and not doing badly given what it is about. Not that there is anything wrong with it per se but should a short blog entry, which can be summed up as "Want to deprecate a method in c#? Decorate it with an [obsolete] attribute and you'll get a warning" even be in the competition? The competitions really are just becoming a depressing popularity contest.

i am very angry from codeproject editors. i am start writing a popular article (just 5 million fan in IRAN) and when it complete i click on publish button. but after many hours some editors say that its not clear and they mark it closed. 
Also i must add that i use pictures and good explanation for beginners on that article.
it's very bad for your editors that can't even read an article completely.

I've just taken a look at your article. 5,000,000 fans or not, when I visit the link, every image on your article is missing. This might be because of the status of the article.
The other thing I'd say immediately is that it's simply too short to be an article. Articles are meant to be in-depth or cover complex topics, this is neither. I'd say this should be in the tips'n'tricks section.
Finally, I'm not even convinced that the method you propose even has much use, from the code, it seems to download a text file, read it and pumps the values into a text box. Each time you do this, it also introduces an overhead as the file is downloaded and read.
For a user friendly approach, I'd expect the site to simply re-direct to the new URL if the old one is accessed (permanent re-directs where needed). From and SEO point of view this makes double-sense as it tells the search engine's not to present the old URL on future searches, and display the new one in its place.

i know just statistics of Iran and each music or film center admin need this kinds of program and they spend near 15$ for like this.

True guess! i can see pictures in edit mode but i can't see them in published mode like you and other members.
Quote: that it's simply too short to be an article.
I think it's better to change it to Tip/Trick as you say but also it can be article. (i saw very short articles in codeproject too much  )
Quote: Finally, I'm not even convinced that the method you propose even has much use, from the code
your answer is here:
Quote: must noticed that i talking about easiest way of making Address Finder and in other methods you can do something else
This is beginner article and i choose a short and easy way to do that!
also i must say in iran when a site (ex www.google.com) became filter, the admin make new url like this (www.google27.com). and can't do any redirect becuse by filtering first URL became unavailable anymore.
Finally thank you because of your response
Best Regards
