    Heck no! I bookmark articles that are utter rubbish (other than my own) so that I can: 0) Go back and add ridicule later. 1) Maybe do some research to support my point of view. 2) Perhaps develop a "better" solution and provide that to the author. 3) Occasionally take a look to see if the article improved. And sometimes I hit "bookmark" accidently. :doh: Actually, I just bookmarked an old article by Marc Clifton that showed up as the Featured Article because I don't have time to read it now.

      No way. I bookmark an article for one of two reasons. One that I read and I find completely awesome and needs to be within my quick reach or one that is there for me to read within the next few days because there is something about it that caught my eye. Its only the article that I read and find to be both informative and well written that gets a 5. However, with some writers (like Sacha Barber[^], Nishant Sivakumar[^] and Marc Clifton[^] [and believe me, this list is outrageously short, there are some proper geniuses here]) its almost a given that their article is both VERY informative and VERY well written.

          I like him very much. One funny reason is his similarity to Rubeus Hagrid in harry potter. :-\

                  I suggest that if a member bookmarks an article, it automatically counts as a vote of 5 for that article. Or at least it requires voting prior bookmarking What do you see ?

                        Speaking of, I like how your article, Updating Multiple Text Files Using a ListBox Control, is able to incorporate the phrase "ass date" by creating a logo out of the initial letters in "Mass Update". Reminds me of this post by JSOP.

                          Your suggestion belongs in the suggestion forum and no it is a bloody silly idea. Just because the article may be usefull does not mean it is well written. The corrollery is that every article you vote 5 for should be bookmarked :)

                            OH! my God !!! :mad: I never meant that I have just noticed that right now. However, I ask you to revisit that article and find the comments below it For the logo, I was just trying make something different, I will change it immediately. Or may ask CP staff to remove it not only because of the logo. But for the comment you will find below it
