    I don't know if I'm mistaken, but it looks like you are changing my blog posts ("technical blog") to regular codeproject articles. Please stop do that. When I write blog posts they are typically smaller and not as carefully crafted as regular articles (which takes more time to write). When you change my blog posts to articles you also increase the expectation the user has. So if they want to read a complete article and get a blog post rewrapped as an article is more likely that they will get disappointed. I would rather that you removed my blog posts instead of converting them.

      Technical blogs are meant to be held to the same standard as a tip or article. If your blog posts are not ready to be posted as an article then either you can simply not mark them as consumable or we can disable your feed.

        On the other hand... it happens sometimes that when a blog post gets edited, it is changed to article. Trying to change it back to blog is not possible because the option is not even in the dropdown possibilities for "type"

        M.D.V. ;) If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about? Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

          I've fixed the only entry I found of yours that was an article that should have been a blog entry. If you catch any others, please let me know.

          Thanks, Sean Ewington CodeProject
