As Spectregunner stated, there is no way to review, from the public side or the editing side (unless an editor has privileges there), what sites are waiting to be reviewed in which categories. And search works best for categories, not individual sites. Although, if your site is listed and you enter the URL, without the 'www.' in the search bar, it should be able to find the listing - if the public page has been updated since then. (See, it's never just yes or no.
)
It would help - a lot - to know when you submitted your site. As has been stated, waits can be 10 minutes or 3 years, in any area of the directory. Therefore, what may seem like a long wait from your perspective, isn't necessarily. If it's been less than 6 months and you received the "Thank you for your suggestion" screen after submission, I would give it a little more time before you resubmit.
If,
after careful consideration of the above, you decide to submit
one more time, please review the Kids and Teens Open Directory submission guidelines carefully, as well as any guidelines for the specific category. (A number of category-specific guidelines have been updated in Kids and Teens recently.) First and foremost, sites must be designed
for and of interest/use to kids and teens,
not about kids and teens.
We do not accept shopping sites, or sites for parents or teachers or caregivers,
ever. Sites in languages other than English, must be submitted to the proper category in Kids_and_Teens/International.
This does not guarantee listing or an 'immediate' review of a suggested site. It does, however, guarantee that a site won't have to wait to be reviewed by an editor who can't (regardless of content) list it; who has to have and take the time to find where it belongs, and move it to the new category. Just so the site submission can wait, again, to be reviewed by an editor who has the ability to list it.
