Template #11 Rodrigo Vieira	Issue #1 Jun 1, 2017	Denis No author link Declined by admin Author links are optional.
Template #13 Denis	Issue #1 Jun 1, 2017	Rodrigo Vieira Content was poorly processed. Denis Embedded link previews to internal articles should be there. Like in sample medium.com template. Accepted by admin I believe the issue is referring to the spacing of the text within the blockquote. A single <br> is usually not equivalent to a paragraph's margin. So the Preview's text here is less readable than the original article's text.
Template #15 Odwalla	Issue #1 Jun 2, 2017	Denis No cover Accepted by admin The photo is missing. https://instantview.telegram.org/contest/lifehacker.com/template16/ handles it.

Template #22 Odwalla	Issue #1 Jun 9, 2017	Rodrigo Vieira This article does not have a clear cover image. Check og:image from metadata. Accepted by admin Extracting photo as a cover makes paragraph "Photo by" meaningless
Template #22 Odwalla	Issue #2 Jun 9, 2017	Rodrigo Vieira I think this is not a cover image because the image is aligned to left. Only images aligned to the center should be cover image. This article does not have a clear cover image. Check og:image from metadata. Accepted by admin Extracting this photo as a cover makes paragraph "Photo by..." in text meaningless

Template #37 Rodrigo Vieira	Issue #1 Jun 12, 2017	Denis The problem with this video is although it could be technically retrieved direct link to it, it has "exp" parameter after that it wouldn't be available. Telegram uses caching for IV pages, so after some period of time link to video will be broken. Also it could and SHOULD be <iframe> as rules states (6.8.2), but iframe have "expires" parameter too. Rodrigo Vieira My first code for this video had this problem, it only worked for 1 hour, but if you remove the expires parameter, a new token always comes in and the video always stays active. Declined by admin Videos with expiration parameters will still work with mobile IVs, since the link would be valid at the time the mobile IV is cached, so the video would be cached too. The IV Editor works differently than mobile IVs. The mobile IV and IV Editor to not share the same cache.
Template #37 Rodrigo Vieira	Issue #2 Jun 12, 2017	Denis AFAIK telegram also caches _processed_ page, with all iframes inlined, etc. You could remove "expires" from <iframe> which allows to work template with cached source page, but you couldn't remove "exp" from video itself, because it's not gonna work. It works here, in preview, cause it always loads fresh source page instead of cached. Rodrigo Vieira Content from iframes must have a distinct cache working. If not, for every update of all supported Telegram widget would have expired content should anything be updated from there. If the video never expires here, it should work perfectly when the IV supports mp4. Declined by admin Yes, mobile IV would have its own cached video, so a video with an expiration parameter can still work on mobile IV due to video caching.
Template #37 Rodrigo Vieira	Issue #3 Jun 15, 2017	Denis There is no unsupported essential content Accepted by admin Correct issue. Fixed in the winning template.
Template #41 Rodrigo Vieira	Issue #1 Jun 19, 2017	Denis Cover is small Declined by admin It's not a critical issue.
