It looks like someone with the necessary privileges would have to add the reason for each rejection manually. I can do some of them now, but I'm very tired and will be going to bed soon, so hopefully someone else can chip in and do the rest.
This page is maintained separately from the submission queue and judges' decisions. It serves as a summary of their 'official' verdicts i.e. the judges did not pick these from a set of choices upon rejection. The list is derived after the fact, based on the judge's rejection comments.

Alt+S is meant to put strikethrough text when posting, but for me it submits the post instead. I recently had to quickly edit one of my posts because of this.
Are s-tags and 'Submit' set to the same command, by any chance?
Huh, didn't even know it set accesskey attributes (or even that's what they were). Definitely a conflict though, strikethrough and submit are both set to s.

The link takes you to a very old submission and not the latest. Also, how do you search for threads you've created? I can only seem to search for posts I've made :/
I don't think that's a bug. This thread could only be sticky if someone manually set it to be.

Which run do you mean? I couldn't find any submissions or publications with that date.

It looks like the search function is geared toward searching for posts. Currently you can "Search previous:" for "topic title and message text" and "message text only". You would need an option for "topic title only" to be able to search for threads you've made.
One thing you could try instead is opening the subforum where you think the thread is and using Ctrl+F to find your username. If you started the thread, you should always be able to find your name on one of the pages.

I'm aware of that and would like to see that made an option.
This isn't a bug. Updated is the key word on that page. Something changed on that particular submission, so it's listed in that section. I'm not entirely sure what has to change for an updated submission to be listed there, possibly even something as small as changing the description or fixing a typo, but either way it's intentional.

So there's still no way after several years now to just view new publications/links to new runs that obsoleted old runs? I used to visit the Published Movies forum when the new website went up but that too is now constantly bumped by ancient movies making it needlessly difficult to keep track of recent new publications.
Also one would normally think the NewMovies page would link you to recent publications, not ancient publications that have a fancier video encode (or typo fix) uploaded for it.
[...] making it needlessly difficult to keep track of recent new publications.
Needlessly difficult? Just ignore any entries marked "Updated". Is that really so hard?
So "Added" = brand new TAS and "Updated" = modified existing TAS? Then why are modified existing tases listed on the page for new (latest) publications and not in a different category that is more uh, appropriate for that type of thing? Modifying an existing publication doesn't (in my opinion) make it new.

I agree with franpa. Even if the search isn't impossible, it's made much harder by listing all movie edits there (which has what point exactly?)

The page you're looking for appears at a glance to be http://tasvideos.org/PublicationsFromNewestToOldest.html
The NewMovies page could use a rebrand however. Right now its url (and its link on http://tasvideos.org/Movies.html -> Lists) suggests that it's the list of newest movies, not the most recently updated publications. It's a mismatch.

What has been modified on those movies are the encodes (note that those were old pubs with AVI encodes and now they have been renewed), so I do think that they can be called "new", or as how the page calls them, "updated".

I want to remind about a bug where wiki page history doesn't link to revisions, but always to the newest version of the page. Makes annoying as hell trying to find when a certain thing was added, you need to make a whole bunch of diffs blindly, looking for when it gets added/changed/removed and them binary-searching.

When I click "reply" in a thread, the posting screen gets cut in half if there are any embedded videos on that page. The left half is the preview screen, the right one has the video players. The vertical positioning is as normal.

There are no N64 emulators. Just SM64 emulators with hacky support for all the other games.
I'm trying to edit my profile page, but I can't. I log in on the page and I don't have the option to do so. Every other page seems to be fine like the Game Resources pages, but in my profile page I don't have the option to edit but just to log in, but I already logged in.
