From the Planet Drupal guidelines:

  • Your feed must be Planet-specific.
  • Your feed should have at least a few posts already so we can evaluate the content and make sure it is appropriate for the feed. More than three posts is preferred.
  • Your feed must pass source code validation since Drupal's aggregator module is very strict about parsing feed source code.
  • Comments must be enabled. We highly recommend, but do not require, that anonymous comments be enabled for the content being aggregated.

The content looks mostly good, but review the posts that are not welcome:

  • No press releases.
  • No "Oh I am having fun" posts that don't have much relevance for others. It's great you're having fun with Drupal, but unless what you're sharing can actually help others, or provide great interest, it's not appropriate Planet material.
  • No job announcements. Everyone is hiring. There are better places to post that.
  • No hiring announcements.
  • No posts about something else that just mention Drupal in passing. See requirements regarding Planet-specific feed.
  • No site launches without some sort of narrative, case study or other aspect from which people might learn something.
  • Site must not appear to be in violation of the Drupal Trademark policy. If we think it's in violation, then we won't include it unless we're sure it's not (e.g., the site demonstrates that it has an explicit license).

I think that the post about URL shortener falls a bit into the second and second-to-last items. If you could remove the Drupal Planet tag from that one, I think this is ready to RTBC.

Hey BrockBoland,

Thanks for getting back to me on this long-lost request.
I thought this request had fallen on deaf ears.

Anyway, I've removed that URL shortener post from the 'drupal' taxonomy term.

Anything else? :-)

Looks good to me!

The dates on a couple of your posts are off and will mess with the aggregator a bit (the post will just sit at the top of planet until that date passes). This is not okay, so back to needs work.

Hi cweagans,

Thanks for reviewing, but what do you mean by the dates are off and will mess with the aggregator?

For some reason, you have posts that have future dates for the publish dates. Aggregator will pull those in with the dates that you've given them and display the posts in reverse chronological order, which means that your posts will just sit at the top of aggregator for months. If this happened, we would remove you from planet, so let's fix it before you're added :)

Looks like European-style dates vs. American style dates. I'm looking at the feed itself and don't see these dates, though: has it been fixed?

Oh, you know what? You're right. Sorry, it was late. I'll add this later today if somebody doesn't beat me to it.

I'm from Malaysia, we're using UK style dates DD/MM/YYYY.

I'm pretty sure this is not a problem for the Aggregator, as it reads the date from feed. For example:

<pubDate>Tue, 10 Jan 2012 05:24:39 +0000</pubDate>

Thanks for looking into this issue guys, appreciate that :)

The feed from Leow Kah Thong seems to be broken, due to an error "Not well-formed (invalid token)" on line 1.

Feed suspended for now.
