"Thank you for your submission to EzineArticles.com titled "X" (********).
We would like to help you get this article approved but there is an issue which needs to be resolved first.
Please contact us at http://ezinearticles.com/contact.html for more information."
Why don't ezine articles editors actually do there job and edit? Or at least offer some helpful (and honest) advice. Lately a lot of authors have been getting articles rejected for no reason, and reason's such as incorrect use of paragraphs, when their use of paragraphs has been fine.
"ezinearticles editors please contact us for more information"
"Spelling errors" highlighted by their checking tool identify common words as a spelling mistake, and incorrect grammar errors. My own proof reading and tools, whilst not infallible, have not yielded any errors, where their editors, who probably have a quarter of the English education as I do, and perhaps of most ezinearticles authors.
Ezinearticles checking rejects words is listed in merriam-webster and just about every other dictionary, why is it listed as a spelling error on their site? Yet other obvious spelling mistakes are not?
The new ezine articles system seems to be rejecting perfectly good quality articles, and giving many false positive rejections for spelling, grammar and paragraph structure. The only purpose I can see is that the editors have to reach some kind of quota to satisfy a new level of rejections since their scare with Google, yet they offer next to no helpful information, or do any editing.
Many of my writing team in Australia and other author colleagues are experiencing the same issues with false positives, or super strict guidelines to the point of being ridiculously strict, but offering no helpful information on specific issues, often just sending a rejection saying "contact us". A waste of your own time, as articles will need to be resubmitted countless times.
We do our best to offer quality, original and expert level articles, and don't like to see junk articles on their site either. But if these false positives or super strict rejections continue I and many other authors I know (and many more I don't) will cease to use the ezinearticles service.
To Christopher Knight CEO of Ezine Articles, if you're reading this, your company is going down the tube, thanks to your dumb ultra restrictive policies, and unhelpful editors. Go on, push all of us skilled expert authors away to your competitors, your loss.

ezine articles rejections for no reason
Ezine articles has gone completely down the tube.
I manage about 10 authors accounts for ezinearticles, all near perfect (and native) english speakers.
With perfectly good articles they now offer rejection reasonssuch as
Issue 1 (Section 1.e)
http://ezinearticles.com/editorial-guidelines.html#1-e
---------
To be accepted for review, your submission must have proper English grammar, spelling, punctuation, spacing, capitalization and sentence structure. Please have the Title, Article Body, and 'Author SIG - Resource Box' proof read and correct any errors before resubmitting for an Editorial Review.
Issue 2 (Section 2.e xiii)
http://ezinearticles.com/editorial-guidelines.html#2-e-xiii
---------
We do not accept articles that do not use paragraphs to appropriately break up the body of the article. Please ensure that your article contains these appropriate breaks.
This with articles that already have good paragraph structure and no spelling mistakes identified.
What's worse is the following response
"We would like to help you get this article approved but there is an issue which needs to be resolved first.
Please contact us at http://ezinearticles.com/contact.html for more information."
This response is a complete waste of time and not at all helpful.
Never had any issues in the past, and now articles are getting rejected multiple times for issues such as "not using paragraphs" when they clearly are, and spelling and grammar, when there are no issues, and no spell check, and their spell check finds no issues.
I asked them to explain exactly how they would re-word one of the "incorrect" sentences, and their correction was EXACTLY the same as how it was already written, not even a comma out of place.
It's all really pathetic.
If the editors are going to be incompetent the EDITORS should at least do some helpful/any EDITING, not just reject 3 times when they don't like the wording of one sentence and offer no helpful advice.
If they're worried about losing traffic, then rejecting everything and having no new content will certainly lose them more traffic. If they add nofollow, then they're going to lose probably 50%+ of their authors.
Looking at moving from ezine articles on to someone else since their staff are now completely incompetent and rejecting, expecting some ultra professional pulitzer prize winning level of article.
Please provide some suggestions. Go Articles, or someone? Our hundreds of articles don't deserve to be on EZA, and if not on another article site, we should keep them on our own sites.
