Since CP's automated fetching of technical blog articles seems to be broken and my blog feed (Articles/BlogFeedList.aspx?amid=10718738) is no longer polled (I see a spinning wheel where I should see a button for manually pulling the feed), and the CP helpdesk does not provide help with this, I will simply delete my blog feed entry.

Matthew, I don't think the XML declaration is a problem, after all, RSS Feed is an XML format. I also don't think that anything has changed on my blog website, so the feed is the same as in the past, when pulling the posts from it worked well. I didn't post anything for a year, but that should also not create a problem? I just deleted my blog from CP, and then added it again. This has triggered the successful pulling of my newest post. So the problem is not the format of the feed. -Gerd

I can't see that it's broken. The content of the link element has the same format as in previous posts. It's the same format as in the previous posts that have been pulled successfully by CP

My blog feed is no longer polled and I can neither edit nor delete its CP entry: [Articles/BlogFeedList.aspx?amid=10718738](https://www.codeproject.com/script/Articles/BlogFeedList.aspx?amid=10718738)

Does CP support the publication of translations of already published articles? Specifically, I have received a Russian translation of my "JavaScript Summary", and I'm wondering how I can publish it on CP. There should be an option or menu item similar to "Alternative version".

Okay, thanks for the hint. This was the problem: we had defined a (Drupal) view with limited content of the article body, which unintentionally affected the atom feeds (by limiting the content of the feeds' description element).

I tried this (http://web-engineering.info/blog-feed.xml[^]), but it didn't help...?

I'm wondering why my new blog post (on http://www.codeproject.com/script/Articles/BlogArticleList.aspx?afid=7848[^]) has not been fetched by the CP blog post polling mechanism. It has a "CodeProject" category and a pubDate of 28 Sep 2015 12:43, but the CP crawler polling at 28-Sep-15 21:28 did not fetch it!?

My joint blog post has been automatically re-categorized as "article" after I've edited it and added a co-author. When I tried to reset it to "blog post", this was ignored. Is this a bug or what can I do?

You have approved an update of my article[^], where I have added a section, but its "Updated" date was not updated and the updated article was not shown in the list of updated articles. Why can this happen?

Thanks for your suggestion. Indeed, it would be a good thing to write an article about UML, explaining what you get from learning UML, and using it. In fact, I already try to show how using UML class diagrams helps to write the model code in an MVC software application in many of my CP articles, such as in JavaScript Front-End Web App Tutorial Part 2: Adding Constraint Validation and JavaScript Front-End Web App Tutorial Part 3: Managing Unidirectional Associations, and in others to appear.

> All votes are biased. That is the nature and purpose of voting. It's a pitty that you didn't get the point (of my comparison with jury votes). > What you are talking about is censorship. Come on, that's a weird allegation. You are confusing the meaning of the word "censorship", which refers to the "freedom of speech" (or article publication), but not to voting.

> Why should there be restrictions on who votes? Because biased, purely "political" votes are of no value (that's why someone linked to the victim or the defendant cannot be a member of the jury before court). > You have just addressed 3 points you take issue with The article tries to explain 3 OO concepts, and I point out one serious flaw in each of these three explanations and provide alternative explanations, which are in line with the UML. Why shouldn't providing alternative explanations make an "alternative article"?

I just added it: Really Understanding Association, Aggregation, and Composition

I've written an "alternative article" (Really Understanding Association, Aggregation, and Composition[^]) that is criticising the original article, which is highly ranked. Now my alternative article got a "1" downvote with a heavy weight (so it's now rated as "2" and therefore no longer displayed) and without any comment explaining the downvote, so I'm assuming it may be a revenge vote by the author of the original article. Isn't it contradicting the idea of the "alternative article" feature if the author of the original article can vote against an "alternative article"? In this way he can prevent that the criticism of his article is perceived/read by the site's readers.

I recommend "learning by doing", which, in your case, means not reading lots of text about the intricacies of the language (like in most JS programming books), but rather read the minimum necessary to start programming your first app. This approach is implemented in my tutorial book Engineering Front-End Web Apps with Plain JavaScript.

When submitting an article selecting the section "Client side scripting", the subsection "JacaScript" is sometimes available, and sometimes not! Isn't this a bug?

In my recent blog post http://www.codeproject.com/script/Articles/ArticleVersion.aspx?aid=845140&av=1255864, you have been deleting a sentence with a reference to a book chapter that provides a deeper treatment of the article's issues: "You can read more about associations in general, and how they can be implemented with JavaScript, in the third part of my book on Engineering Frontend Web Apps with Plain JavaScript." Why did you delete this reference? Is there any policy that an author must not include references to other material providing further reading?

My impression is that there is much more vertical white space in the new layout than you had before. This makes it really unpleasant/slow to scroll through, so I gave up reading it.
