QuestionSignificant improvement to an article posted 2003memberjeff00seattle11:45 4 Feb '09  
Hi

I have a much better improvement to a previously submitted article from 2003:
http://www.codeproject.com/KB/cpp/cppproperties.aspx

There are significant changes, but I still want to acknowledge the origin of my source.

Should it be new article?

How should I submit it?

Thanks

QuestionWikipedia?memberEddy Vluggen6:53 19 Jan '09  
Any interest in how to import the XML dumps from Wikipedia/Wiktionary into SQL Server?

I are troll Smile

QuestionRe: Wikipedia?memberEddy Vluggen12:03 20 Jan '09  
The reason I ask, is that one is 'free' to use their content, as long as you state "somewhere" where the content came from. I was thinking on showing wiktionary-content in one of the submenu's that you get from a contextmenu thats linked to a (Rich)TextBox.

The real wikipedia doesn't fit uncompressed on my harddrive, but I'd love to get a chance to datamine it! Cool

Or would an import of the GeoNames-database-dump be more interesting? This binds zipcode to a placecode, along with country, county, and long/lat.

..or perhaps something dry and boring on SDM or Normalization?

..or on calculating PI, for the homework-seeking-audience here?

I admit Shucks I wanna write my first article here Rose I already got the template bookmarked, so that's covered Thumbs Up

Any favors? Which and why? Confused

Yes - do that one. I'd enjoy reading it, because my company does one heckuva lot with GIS, and mining information like this would be invaluable.

AnswerRe: Why is my atricle deleted?mvpPete O'Hanlon23:09 14 Jan '09  
Normally you should have received an email detailing the reasons, any comments from article approvers, stating why they thought your article should be deleted. What was your article called?

Ask your question in the Suggestions forum. The staff monitor that, and they should be able to help.

got it. thanks a lot.
GeneralRe: Why is my atricle deleted?mvpJohn Simmons / outlaw programmer3:31 27 Jan '09  
Why it was deleted: For any number of reasons, your article was considered to be crap by the people that viewed it in its pre-approval state.

Why No Comments: Many people, such as myself, do not leave comments on articles that they don't deem worthy to be submitted. A small subset of that group (such as myself) will only comment on an article if a) its a complete and utter waste of storage space, or b) the article is almost good enough to approve.

How To Make Your Article Suck

0) Improperly format your article. CodeProject's article wizard does its best to help you along in the process, but in the end, it's still up to you to use the Preview button before hitting the Submit button. Poor formatting is not tolerated at all.

1) Struggling with English. It's really too bad if you're not a native English speaker, but that does not absolve you of the responsibility of posting something the rest of us can read. If you have trouble with English, find someone that doesn't, and have them edit your article for you.

2) Don't put your code blocks inside <pre> tags. This royally screws up an articles appearance.

3) Don't explain the code in detail. We're not as interested in witty banter as much as we are interested in understanding how your code works.

4) Post a partially completed article. NEVER EVER sit down to post an article unless you're prepared to finish it in the same session.

5) Leave in parts of the boilerplate text that the article wizard provides you with by default.

Your article probably met one or more of the items above, thus qualifying it for big time sucking.
