In the 'my profile' page while the remarks column at the right shows 'approved', the 'status' column at left shows 'pending approval through an icon. Why this contradiction ?

Article publishing is done in two stages at present.

1. Review by an editor: The editor may add comment such as Approved or Rejected. However the article status will be still under pending review by an administrator.

2. The administrator re-review the article which is reviewed by editor and publish if it meets the Boddunan terms and have valid content. The cash credits depend on the size, quality, content, title, meta information of the article.

Hope I answer your query.
