I can understand the problem of the category when my article fits on Mental health and also on Depression, Psychology and Spirituality for example. I may decide to put it on Mental Health but the editor believes it should go to Psychology or backwards. Ok, we can discuss this matter and chose together the best category for the article. However, my beautiful article was in the correct category: Psychology, and the EA’s editor put it on Sleeping-Snoring, which is a category for people that have problems sleeping and therefore cannot see dreams in order to interpret them. This mistake was made twice with my articles. I cannot find a logical explanation for that. Why would an editor take my article from the correct category to put it in a totally wrong one? Did you pay attention to what happened to me twice?

It's not very often you get FREE editing for your writing. I've had to pay as much as $15.00 a page for editing. When you're talking a 280 page book, that ads up to a whopping $4200.00 for editing. That's a bunch of money. Albeit was a text book, and I made money on it, but that's still a chunk of change to lay out for someone to look over a book. Guess it depends on your purpose?

The same way, the editors have to pay attention to what they are doing and accept the authors’ criticism when they are wrong. Nobody is perfect and we have a common goal: to achieve the best results with our articles. Yes, Kathy, the editors have to help the authors and the authors have to accept their criticism.

Good grief... what is wrong with people that they think they are that important? I can see it though... people get so full of themselves. Gads. I personally loved knowing I could connect with the person who said my article had problems. I knew by that, that the goal was to get it published and I had someone who was helping me do that.

What are you talking about? This was not criticism from the editors but mistakes they made. The editors are supposed to correct the mistakes made by the authors, not to make worse mistakes when they try to correct something. Chris, When you are correct I applaud you, but when something is wrong, I have to tell you, and I do that in order to help you correct the existent mistakes, so that things will work perfectly at Ezine Articles. This is always my intention. If when we leave our comment here we always agree with you, our opinion is not helpful. Here you have to accept criticism, not only compliments, because we the authors are your partners. We work for you and Ezine Articles works for us. We have to achieve the best together. Hi Susan!

When she was still writing, that was Ann Rice. In this highly competitive field, you have to leave your ego on the shelf, next to that beautiful coffee mug, and be happy that Chris has hired pros instead of hacks. Cheers! Christina:

There is always a reason 100% of the time when an editor makes a category change decision: It has to do with readership trust above member desires in this case.

Unfortunately, we’re not setup [on purpose] to be able to have lengthy conversations with members each time an editor makes a category move decision.

Lastly, this is a resolved issue and for privacy reasons, I won’t address further in this public blog. If you have further issue, please take the conversation private with our member support team. Thanks.

When I deleted the last phrase, the two comments appeared…. <strong><em>[MODERATORS NOTE: I REMOVED THE DUPLICATE BLOG COMMENT]</em></strong> Never mind about the boxer, even though the idea was not good. Correct your editor’s behaviour and tell them to pay Attention to what they do! Once they put one of my articles about dream interpretation in the category Sleep – Snoring, that is for people that suffer from insomnia!! Without sleeping they cannot see dreams and interpret them! Wish I knew who was the editor that made this mistake… and he or she made it Twice!!! Once was not enough.
