Broken article
A minor edit (on 19th Oct 2023) to the team invite article resulted in it being hidden, as an automatic message explained: "This topic has been automatically flagged for containing potentially harmful content and has been hidden as a result."

The same thing had been happening in Sept 2023 on the Gmod archive, leaving one post invisible for over 100 days. In exchanges with Steam support, I was led to believe that this issue would only last 2 days, so it wasn't clear why the issue could go on for 100 days, and why the error messages said nothing about manual intervention.

Steam support was contacted over the ongoing issue, with a response explaining that the "content was hidden by Steam's Automated Content Check system pending a review by Steam Moderation Staff" and that the "check is usually quick but can take up to a couple of days in rare cases depending on the data load or even get stuck, but I have gone ahead and cleared the check for you."

It's still not clear whether the "temporarily hidden - awaiting analysis" issue and the "hidden as a result - for containing potentially harmful content" issue both require manual review and are both at risk of getting stuck.

It seems that in every case so far, if an article was stuck like this for more than the typical 20 seconds, and I didn't contact Steam support, it remained invisible to the public indefinitely, which is an issue that only started noticeably happening to the archives in Sept 2023.

The team invite post got stuck again after an edit on 20th Oct, so I waited until the 26th Oct before resorting to contacting Steam again. A speedy reply came in less than 52 minutes - again I was told that "It can sometimes take a day or two for our system to review your content due to the data load" ignoring the fact (which I pointed out) that it had been 6 days. The issue got far worse in 2024.

An article was written about the issue on the main Archive group:
