A recent post from the Karl Scheirer-feed seems to be incorrectly formatted (title element in the feed is empty):

Additionally, the post itself does not meet the Planet Drupal guidelines.

For those reasons I have temporarily suspended the feed and notified the author.

Um, so let me start with a big Sorry! It's been a while since I put up a post and I definitely messed it up:

  • The feed is capable of well formatted posts.
  • I should have posted the problem here right away instead of trying to fix it with a second (well formatted) post.
  • I thought the post would qualify as event-related, can you elaborate?

Is it possible the fix up the content of that feed item in the planet (to remove the html in the title and update the link location) ?

Are there other steps that are needed to get the account reinstated?

Since the reason for removing the feed has been resolved, I re-enabled the feed on Planet Drupal.

I thought the post would qualify as event-related, can you elaborate?

Event-related is fine, but we generally expect some background or depth to the post besides the mere mention of an event. For just announcing an event, http://groups.drupal.org/events is better suited.

Is it possible to delete the badly formatted item off the planet? I'd like to make a new post that contains better quality information and correct formatting.

I'd purged all items and re-indexed after you fixed the feed, but older items might linger for a bit (caching?). The badly formatted post is gone now, see http://drupal.org/aggregator/sources/388 .
