I noticed that 18 of my bookmarks were private, in spite of my saving them as public. No problem, I thought. I went to the Private tab under My Bookmarks, selected all 18 of them, and chose "Convert to public" under "More actions..." It seemed to work, but when I checked back later the bookmarks were private again. I've been through this cycle several times now, but those 18 bookmarks insist on being private. Can anyone explain why?

Yes, that's exactly what I see when I do it. As I said above, "it seemed to work." Then I would come back 24 hours or so later, and the bookmarks would be private again. You have to wait to reproduce it.
> > Before you chose the conversion action for the selection, did you perform any other action on the same selection?
2. Long shot: has your username ever been anything other than ehanneken?
3. Apart from the subject matter, what might all or some of the nineteen have in common? For example:
a) Did you create the bookmarks yourself?
b) Did you 'save' them directly from someone else's library of bookmarks, or list, or some other diigo.com interface?
c) Did you use Diigolet to save them, or an installed version of Diigo? If installed:
— operating system and version? — browser and version? — version number of Diigo?
d) When you first saved them, were they private?
We see that one of the bookmarks was saved by you on 2008-04-30 so I don't expect you'll recall version numbers etc. that far back, but you get the idea … what, if anything, might they have in common?
Can you estimate whether all nineteen became private at the same time? Or have you only recently noticed the privacy?
If all were public, I wonder what made them private.
> some of them were migrated from Furl.
Is it possible that all nineteen were migrated from Furl, and that some were coincidentally saved using Diigolet during or after the import routine(s)?
I'm reminded of the so-called stickiness of tags that result from imports (not necessarily from Furl)…
Great answers, you have thought very logically about this.
Your list still shows (to the public) all nineteen, but that may be thanks to its tokenised URL.
If the switch to private recurs for any of the nineteen, my guess is that you should review:
* first, on Tuesday 28th July
— assuming that some routines don't run at weekends
* again, on 31st July
— seven or eight days after the date of your report
— assuming that some routines have a weekly schedule, or are performed on demand (but silently) by Diigo people.
The suggestion to review in a week may seem very peculiar (sorry!) but that's my best guess, based on the reported temporary stickiness of imported tags.
Bottom line: I see this as unusual, but not worrying, not affecting all users, and almost certainly a passing issue.

I have exactly the same problem as Eric. Some of my public bookmarks keep getting converted to private with no help form me. I've been setting them back to public, but they don't stay long that way, but are soon private again. I did not have this problem before, I think it started about the same time as with Eric.
This is very annoying, Please do something about it!
Now about 1 hour later I have 88 private bookmarks. After my above mentioned conversion of 123 private bookmarks to public, I had left 26 private bookmarks. So in just one hour 62 of my public bookmarks had again been converted to private against my will!
Same problem as Mr.Hanneken, though not as acute - three of my bookmarks have, without my consent and without justification, been changed to private. I mentioned this elsewhere, on a thread that he linked to on August 11.
"The absence of a reply (in any topic, not this one in particular) should not be misinterpreted as wilful silence. "
For reasons I cite elsewhere, it does raise serious concerns. I'd like to think that we're looking at no more than one employee doing this without management's approval, but ... is there more than one employee?
Really, how much do we know about Diigo, or most other social networking sites for that matter? By the way - the first post in this discussion will soon be two months old, with no sign of a reply by Diigo's staff. I agree with Eric - they're probably not willing to respond.
In some Diigo groups, considerate moderation/edition may be expected.
Beyond Diigo groups: I think it extremely unlikely that any member of the Diigo team takes time out for manual edition of any bookmark within the personal collection of any user.
"I think it extremely unlikely that any member of the Diigo team takes time out for manual edition of any bookmark within the personal collection of any user."

Hi all, Since there are many k-12 students and teachers in diigo, we implemented an algorithm to detect whether a bookmark contains porn content. If it does, we will change the bookmark to private automatically. However, the algorithm may do some false judgement. Let me know the URLs which were converted to private and we will try to figure out how to improve the algorithm.
> . . . we implemented an algorithm to detect whether a bookmark contains porn content.
It's difficult for me to understand how articles such as "Drug raids gone bad: Shopkeepers say plainclothes cops barged in, looted stores & stole cash," "Study Suggests Online Genetic Test May Help Smokers Quit," or "Mexico's Hopeless Drug War" could be mistaken for pornography. I suspect the algorithm is looking for other content as well.
I'd like to offer a suggestion: Allow users to turn off the content filter, just as Google allows its users to turn off SafeSearch. That way, teachers can keep porn out of their classrooms, and the rest of us can choose to see everything.
In other words, somewhere where Graham Perrin doesn't have to look at it? Mr. Perrin, your arrogance seems to grow by the day. I'm not sure of where it was that you got the idea that this group was your own personal, private possession, but it is not, and for you to act as if it were is highly inappropriate.
> A Diigo list with the opportunity to comment ... is a less intrusive way of representing > a collection of bookmarks with which there is some difficulty.
In other words, a collection of bookmarks which don't meet with your own personal approval. I would be highly offended were the staff to show such partiality in dealing with their users and really, with good reason.
> Gordon Goodfellow wrote: > > > Can anyone explain why? > > Gordon, please see Joe's earlier explanation. > There is some automation, and Diigo have offered > to improve the algorithm.
Would that be "Joel's earlier explanation", Graham? Because I'm the only person named "Joe" on this thread, and I most certainly did not offer any such explanation.
There is, as I've pointed out, some reason to suspect that Joel and Diigo might not be telling us the whole truth, as I've pointed out elsewhere. The timing of the renewed obscuration of those bookmarks, and the two month delay in the response gives us ample reason for distrust.
Your visible confidence that you'll be able to get material submitted by another user removed, just by asking that it be removed, only reinforces this. The very act of hiding evidence is evidence that one has something to hide.
In other words, respectfully: somewhere more suitable. This topic is suitable, and this topic is not hidden.
If every personal bookmark with which a bug is associated is echoed to the Diigo Community bookmarks collection, it will become very difficult for Diigo Community (not me personally) to find bookmarks of value therein.
It's sufficient to reference the bugged bookmark from within this topic.
> A typo. I meant Joel. > > Please keep personal insults out of the public area.
Graham, get off of it. If you're going to behave arrogantly, you're going to get called arrogant. That's life. Grow up and deal with it.
> > In other words
> In other words, respectfully: somewhere more suitable. This topic is suitable, > and this topic is not hidden.
Case in point, and let's add "liar" to the list of noncomplimentary noninsults that you may receive. You didn't just call for this bookmark or that to be moved - you called for every bookmark that I had submitted to this group to be removed, most of which have nothing to do with this discussion. One which you very clearly entered with mind already made up, carrying the proverbial axe to grind.
Three bookmarks out of the massive pile already assembled will not shut anything down, and I think you know that. But they will beautifully illustrate the absurdity of the events that have occured, and that's really isn't something you want people to see, is it, Graham? Looking at the massive level of posting we've seen from you on this group, one that casts your complaint about my three little bookmarks (and their 14 unrelated little friends) in a truly absurd light, one might well ask if you have any life outside of Diigo at all, and indeed, much of a life outside of this group. The concept that people might look and see for themselves that there are signs that Diigo, indeed, did do wrong, really horrifies you, doesn't it?
So much so that you're willing to attempt to abuse the disciplinary process on a site in order to keep people from seeing what you don't want them to see. That's what is truly disgraceful, and whining about how I've "insulted" you won't make the disgrace go away. Doing so merely provides Diigo with a chance to disgrace itself by acting on your sordid request.
Bookmarks insist on being private, against my will
In this topic, a member of the Diigo team has requested the URLs of bookmarks that are unexpectedly private.
Bookmarks that are unrelated to the Diigo Community group
Bookmarks that do not fit the group's description may be removed.
Unusually, the bookmarks area includes at least nine recent bookmarks that are not related to Diigo. For some of these, action was deferred on the assumption that there is an unexplained relationship.
During the last days, some bookmarks that I posted publicly into my library, and also into one of my private group, were switched to "private". It looks like the common characteristic was that they all have a "sexy" tag.
The problem is that, in French, "sexy" can have several meanings and none all of them are about nudity. In fact, in the taxonomy we are using for annotating bookmarks, "sexy" is something (scientific project, software, idea, etc) that looks nice, independently of its intra-sec characteristics.
Diigo powers-that-be, please approve the following bookmarks that are restricted to "private" status.
After reading through this thread, I realize that some the bookmarks which keep switching back to "private" may be failing due to the topic of breast cancer! Others are less clear.

http://www.diigo.com/user/grahamperrin/Diigo%2048320 should match two public bookmarks, both of which were converted from private.
In fact, one of the two has reverted to private. The reversion seemed to occur within seconds.

I just converted my 18 private bookmarks to public again. We'll see if they stay that way.

No, I haven't. By now I assume they don't intend to respond..
In the meantime:
* privacy of your bookmark should not prevent you from working with it
* if you wish to publicise bookmarks that are private, you can do so with:
— a public list
— the tokenised URL of a private list.
Example: six of six bookmarks on this list http://www.diigo.com/list/grahamperrin/delicious-notes-examples are private.
> don't understand the silence of admins in this matter!
Let's assume that the Diigo team is prioritising:
* issues that have broader or more critical effects
* work on the next version of Diigo.
The absence of a reply (in any topic, not this one in particular) should not be misinterpreted as wilful silence.

Thank you for replying. I sent Diigo my list six weeks ago, but here it is again, now 28 bookmarks long:
