Okay I've removed these.
Landon: I open the article, select SUMMARY, then select button "REJECT
AND ARCHIVE" to effectively delete it.

This is already showing as in review.  It's in Jeff's category (Events)
but don't see any activity from his end on it yet.  I'll have a peek though.

everyone the same things. Even in my own profile I still see 1 paper in
review, 0 in editing, while in the right meny 0 in review, 1 in editing.

The challenge right is not so much OJS as it is having all editors and
articles set up properly for the first time.  We will have 'growing
pains' for a little while still.  Each person should see only what is
assigned to them.  But some of us have fuller access.  Trying to keep
the wiki page matched up with the system isn't too easy, since it's
manual :)

But, yes, some bugs popped up because of our testing, making some
articles get a bit lost.  For example, our editorial team changed and we
had to remove a few people who the articles were originally assigned to.
 Setting a new editor had some troubles :/  Working on it though. And
should stabilise in the near future.
