Hi,
Name Applied in: efes123
Area Applied for: http://www.dmoz.org/Regional/Europe/United_Kingdom/England/Suffolk/Guides_and_Directories/
Date applied: 15th June 2010
Request 20100615117471
I applied to become an edit for the above section on the 15th of this month, and I was pleasently surprised to receive a response the same day. But the response didn't make any sense. The area I applied for only has 6 entries, and no current editor. This is the response I received:
Thank you for your interest in becoming an Open Directory Project editor!
Although we would like you to join us as a volunteer editor, you have chosen a category that is already well represented, or is broader than we typically assign to a new editor. We would encourage you to re-apply for a category that has fewer editors or is smaller in scope, in order to increase your chances of being accepted.
Feel free to reapply by submitting an application in another area.
If you wish to re-apply, you must fill out another application.
Please do not reply to this email.
Unfortunately, I didn't receive any mail with a link to be able to discuss this. It was only when I re-applied putting this information in that I received a link to these forums. Obviously my second application was refused as I'd not filled the form in properly. I'm not quite sure where to go from here, so any advice would be welcome.
Thanks
