I submitted an article for publication on ‘medium.freecodecamp.org’ to the email address ‘submit@freecodecamp.com’. The topic: building an AI algorithm for the Tic Tac Toe challenge. I received a response “This is a good start. Could you import this into Medium then send me a link to it’s ready?”. I send a link and received no reply for over a month and a half.
medium.freecodecamp.org asks that once an article is submitted, to allow it to publish it first. I know that medium.freecodecamp.org volunteers are really busy, but I really want to publish the article. Please let me know if there is something that can be done.
Thank you @BenGitter, @carpben I’m sorry that you were inconvenienced. @QuincyLarson has been working hard to get the new Editing Team up-to-speed.
Is this your first article with Medium?
I have not seen a submission with from Ben Carp with that title. Since I have just finished the Tic-Tac-Toe challenge, this article would be very interesting for me.
Please re-submit with a note stating that you have been approved and I will look into it when it arrives.
And please be patient. We as a team are trying to make your experience as pleasant as possible. But it’s true, we are volunteers. We are there as time permits.
Yes, this is my first article with Medium.
I have just resubmitted the article to ‘submit@freecodecamp.com’. Please feel free to contact me directly or here.
Hi @KoniKodes I’m piggybacking on this chat thread I submitted an article to your team and submission email addresses titled “How I designed one of the most successful apps on the blockchain”. Just bringing to your attn. Would love to know if you guys are interested in publishing so I can act accordingly. Cheers
Hi @rolomathias,
I haven’t seen it come in yet, but I’ll keep an eye out for it.
Also, I’ll ask my Senior Editor to pin it for me, so I can be your editor
It may be a couple of days before you hear back from her, she’s prepping for the Top Contributor awards.
But if you don’t hear from her by the end of the week, let me know.
Hi, @KoniKodes I recently submitted an article to ‘submit@freecodecamp.com’!
The name of the article is ‘How to get started with Competitive Programming in JavaScript’
It’s a time-sensitive article, I want it to get published by 20th of this month! After submitting the article I haven’t heard back yet! And don’t know even if it’s going to be published or not!
I would appreciate if you look into it! It’s really important for this article to get published my 20th Jan!
@KoniKodes Yes I rebsubmitted my article to ‘submit@freecodecamp.com’ and I think it’s the correct email address as an automatic reply comes back stating that they have received my article! Please look into it! Thank you for your time.
Yes, after mentioning the date yesterday in my email, I got back a reply and they added me as a writer for freecodecamp publication. So, I submitted the draft and hopefully it get published before 20th.
I submitted my article since yesterday morning, to submit@freecodecamp.org, submit@freecodecamp.com but so far there’s no auto-reply email coming back to me. The name of the article is ‘How to use facebook messenger to notify the weather alert’.
And now that you’ve read this far, here’s how to submit your story to the freeCodeCamp publication: send an email to submit at freecodecamp org. Include the URL for your story on Medium (preferably an unpublished draft) and the word “bananas” so that we’ll know that you have read all this. Only send one story URL per email. There’s no need to add anything further to your email — we just read the stories and judge them based on their own merits.
Just as most FOSS and freeCodeCamp projects, our editorial platform is manned mainly by a team of volunteers from all over the world. Our days and time zones may differ.
There are also various technically issues that could slow down our response time.
Please be patient, and allow at least 3 business days to hear back from us. Contact me again if you haven’t been contacted by Tuesday afternoon.
Thank you very much for a quick reply. It was my fault for duplicates and missing #bananas in the email subject. I read Quincy’s article couple times and I was worrying since I could not find the email address to submit.
I got the green light to publish and now waited for editing.
PS: I would recommend to clearly state the email submit@freecodecamp.org in Quincy’s article.
He @KoniKodes my article got accepted for publication, but I’m afraid the review time would be longer than the date I would like it published.
Any chance you could help with this?
Thanks in anticipation
