Hello. I'm trying to get reinstated as an editor. My old user name was eshome. I don't remember the password. I tried the password reminder form and didn't receive an email, so I think the email on file must be one I don't have access to anymore. Please advise how to proceed.

Hello, I did today an application to become an editor and this was not my first application. After a few hours I received an email Dear ****22, Your application for a new editor account at the Open Directory Project has been rejected because we believe you already have (or had in the past) another editor account. We have a strict rule of only one account per person (see http://www.dmoz.org/guidelines/accounts.html ). If you wish to edit the directory, you will need to use your existing / previous account rather than applying for a new one. If your account is active and you know your password, you should be able to log in at http://www.dmoz.org/editors/ and conti…

I'm just curious having read some older posts on this forum. It appears that a common complain amongst the public is the amount of time it can potentially take for a site to be reviewed for listing. The most common explanation for this is that editors are overburdened with requests. If this is a case, isn't it strange that it appears so difficult to apply to become an editor? If there is a backlog of sites to be reviewed, shouldn't the Dmoz powers-that-be snatch the hands off from anyone who offers to give their time for nothing to help out? I realise they don't want illiterate morons submitting junk sites, but surely any reasonable application should be grateful…

I was an editor a long time ago and now I want to get back into it. I no longer have access to my old email address and I do not know my old password. What do I need to do? I applied and they pointed me to this forum for help.

Hello, I applied today to become an editor (same username as on this forum). I read in the FAQ that I was supposed to receive an email confirmation of the application. However, I never received it and checked my Spam box as well. Can you tell me if my application went through or do I need to re-submit? Thanks.

Hi guys, I submitted an application to edit http://www.dmoz.org/Arts/Writers_Resources/Writing_Exercises/ on the 27th of November. I don't want to rush you or anything, I'm just running short on things to do, and wondering if it might have gotten lost or something (I got the activation email, but there was no time-frame given). I believe I selected the username "wadrian" (but again, there's no place for me to check it). Thanks

I have not yet received an email of confirmation or denial apropos the editor position I applied for, so I am wondering if my application is still in review or not. * The category I applied to edit was /Health/Mental_Health/Self-Help/Motivation/ * The 'editorname' I used was either gutsmcd or perhaps Matthew * I applied to edit the category on 26 October 2011 because this was when I received a confirmation email in regards to my having submitted an application for said position

Hi, I applied over a year ago to be a DMOZ editor but never received a response either accepting or rejecting my application. The name I applied under was citystate and the code I received was A5972740. I believe I applied to be editor of either http://www.dmoz.org/Regional/North_America/Canada/Ontario/Localities/T/Toronto/ or of one of its subcategories. Can someone tell me if my application was accepted or rejected and if it was rejected is there a reason and should I try again? Thanks
