Minimum length for articles can be defined?
in Suggestion Box
Hello Moderator,

Today while i was reading articles, i came across some very small articles which is not worth to be considered as an article.Why can't we define some minimum length for an article to improve the quality of articles and avoid these small articles?

Friends,
Please share your views

I have given few of the links of such articles

    Yes thats true. The articles are very short. I too came across some articles where only a small program is written without any description or anything else.

    One doubt how come those articles got approved!!!!
    Minimum length should be there for articles, atleast 1 page, or 200 words.. something like that.
    Thanks 'n' Regards,

    An article must contain a number of arguments placed in some sequence. If an article is shorter than a forum post, this is no article. Minimum lengh of an article must be defined.

    Every one should be clear about what an article means. Even if there are no rules about minimum length, we should write articles of reasonable length.

    yes... but we find articles very very short and meaningless.... So if there are some rules, then the quality improves...

    How these articles are getting approved?????????????
    Thanks 'n' Regards,

    I think minimum article length should be 200 word. below that it should be rejected or cash zero.

    Articles are paid very less now.So writers have no interest to post long ones.Instead short articles with low credit.

    Meean, the articles you are pointing out are very old ones. We use to allow such short articles when there was no active forums available but later we discontinued that practice.
