A cooking site with 20 listings for 20 recipes...

Enter a search for thatsmyhome.com (http://search.dmoz.org/cgi-bin/search?search=thatsmyhome.com) and you will find 20 listings for this domain.

The listings don't point to a domain/subdomain or a folder, but to individual pages that cover one particular recipe.

cookingcache.com has 120 entries...

What is the limit of listings a particular Web site can have in DMOZ?

Re: A cooking site with 20 listings for 20 recipes

In the early days of the ODP some useful sites had many deeplinks listed just so that a category structure could be created for listings and some basic population started.

Nowadays most sites get only one listing. Deeplinks are the exception, not the rule. Old listings like these get re-evaluated again when an editor passes through, and in some cases the amount gets trimmed back if other more focussed sites have since been added to the category in question.

No site is guaranteed a listing (forever).

The recipe folks do things a little differently than in most other places around ODP. What you are seeing is not wrong.

Yes, it does at first glance appear to go against all the other posts around here about not getting into more than one category. However, if you read very carefully under the Home: Cooking - description http://dmoz.org/Home/Cooking/desc.html - it says

If your site features recipes or articles pertaining to cooking, the url of that article or page may be submitted ...
