How can I have my site de-listed on DMOZ?
Thanks

Make sure that the legal name is the one used on the site. If the reviewer looks at the site and it plainly uses the existing title, it is unlikely to be changed. Reviews are of the site, not of what is registered with a government body, when that information is not on the site.I have tried to have the title changed to the correct legal name of the company, as registered with the state of Florida
Please see photofox' reply. Nobody is authorized to make a request for inclusion or removal of a site in the directory. Sites are not removed unless they are no longer listable under our guidelines for inclusion. Presumably your site is still a valuable resource.1. I'm the admin for this site as registered with network solutions. So there should be no problem proving I'm authorized to make a deletion request.
The legal name is used on the header.
crowbar said:Also, our focus isn't on the website owner and what he wants, our focus is on the web surfer only. We list sites that have unique content and will add value to a category for the benefit of the web surfer looking for specific information about a topic.
A mistake a lot of people make when requesting a change to the listing is to ask for something which does not meet the guidelines editors are expected to follow.I only wanted to change the description to be something more suitable
Like all editing activities, Update Requests are handled by volunteers, so there is no time frame involved, but they are generally handled more promptly than site suggestions, because all editors like to help with quality control, and we appreciate advice of a change of URL, or an inappropriate choice of category, or a spelling mistake, or incorrect company name, for example. But requests for hype or keywords or other changes not in line with the guidelines are of course declined.Let's assume that I make another request and see no changes even after few weeks. What should I try next?
