I would like to nominate this article!
http://www.go4expert.com/showthread.php?t=17684

In that case, pankaj.sea's article "Stay Online While Cable Internet Is Not Available!" does not qualify for nomination.

Details :

I was just checking all the nominated articles, and found this article as the exact duplicate of above :
http://www.mzwriter.org/stay-online-...-avilable.html.

May be both are posted by pankaj.sea, but the rule clearly says, articles should not be posted on multiple sites.

Here I've to say something man!
May be its out of rules but I'm 300% sure that your mentioned article is a copy of mine because <"

Introduction

Hello Once Aging Guys! : mean:"> all the codes of smileys are as text in that particular site as they have copied from here! If their site is smiley enabled then why should they display the code?

Thats my bad luck that my article is out of compition!

Thankz!

May be

Exactly ! That's the point !
Let's dig deeper ... I see your article, I copy it and I paste it here ... see what I get :

--- COPIED TEXT ---
Introduction
Hello Once Aging Guys!
--- END ---

I don't get the [mark]s ! The Introduction appears as normal text !

What I am trying to say is ... If some one tries to copy your article, he can only copy what's AVAILABLE to him. He cannot, by any means (except hacking), copy what's not available to him.

You write an article, you submit it here. After getting approved, it's available to the members and in general, the public. If someone tries to copy your article, he would only copy the text, not the BBcode tags, smileys etc..
After a specific period, even you don't have access to your article's source-code (I didn't find a better word), because you can't edit it.

So, how can someone copy your article with all the [mark]s, smileys etc.? Try to copy your whole article and paste in notepad. See if you get even a SINGLE [mark] or smiley.

Now, to gain access to your articles source-code, there can only be 3 ways :
(1) the site admin can obviously access your article's source-code. But, I don't think he would (or he needs) to copy your article.
(2) someone hacked your G4EF account and tried to edit your article before it's locked for any further edits.
(3) you yourself copied the articles source-code directly and pasted it there.

I don't know which one of these options is the reality, neither do I want to comment on it.

Better luck next time

thanks for your link.
