Article submission and review
Here we attempt to explain the process of submitting articles and the process of reviewing the submissions.
We are psyched with the number of submissions that have come in and just want to let you know a little about the review process. All the articles submitted go under review by one of the team members. If the team has a comment on it, they will leave it unpublished and submit an Author PM in the comments section.
The Articles usually do not get strict scrutiny, but generally there are a few things that could be simplified or changed. Sometimes, we may even refer you to other samples that could help you on your quest for the perfect solution. Other times, we will just publish the article and let the community have at it. And there may even be times when we send you back to the drawing board.
The goal of this is to help raise the level of every community member. Those who submit articles receive the greatest return. Yeah, we know its like free training for authors, but hey thats what this is all about. More people having more fun with easier and simpler lives.
There is a lot of information out there on CakePHP. We hope bringing it to one place will make it easier to learn and extend CakePHP, while improving the quality of the code and recognition for authors.
Feedback welcomed. Keep an eye on your submissions.

1 Keep up the great work
It is yet another step towards securing a high standard and quality in the MVC paradigm that CakePHP stands for!
Great Work!

3 How can we help
Would it be possible to list article titles/summaries of those currently in the review process, so we don't bog you down with resubmits?
I'm itching to write!

4 Nice idea
good idea. We will try to work that in.
Question
5 What about other languages
As the english CakePHP Wiki moved on the Bakery since a few days, what will happen to the others wikis in other languages? Will they stay on the Wiki part of the site or will they be moved on the bakery too ?
Question
6 Speeding up approval process
Any idea how we can speed up the process of approving articles? Maybe a comunity voting of submitted articles (a la drupal)?
