A referral from DMOZ showed up in my logs last weekend, but I haven't seen my site listed yet(I manually checked the category since I know the search isn't always updated). I submitted to Regional:North America:United States:Government:Military:Army:Education and Training I also submitted to the military section for Iowa since I thought my site fit into both categories, which I hope is okay?

Anyway, thought I'd see where it was moved to or why it wasn't listed <img src="/images/icons/frown.gif" alt="" /> Thanks in advance.

Thanks for the info. I was hoping to add a little more information about the site in the description, but when I try the "update URL" it tells me "You must submit this form from the Open Directory site." I'm not sure why I'm getting that error, as it's impossible not to be on the site when you're submitting the URL <img src="/images/icons/grin.gif" alt="" />

I didn't have a problem accessing the Update URL form, I got that error when clicking Update URL after filling ot the form with an updated description.

I just tried updating the URL again and it worked <img src="/images/icons/cool.gif" alt="" /> How long does it usually take for someone to approve an update?

Assuming it gets approved at all, it could take anywhere from minutes to months.

Its added to the normal "new sites" queue, but markes as an Update request. So it depends on the editors editing there.

I was actually debating whether to put it in education and training or recruiting. You're right, it would fit better in that category.....I was just thinking that since it catered more toward just providing information to people considering the Army, it would be considered as a type of education for them. I should have put more thought into where to submit them, sorry about that <img src="/images/icons/blush.gif" alt="" />

Any updates? I decided to inquire again since the education and training cat I submitted to has lost its editor in the past few weeks, which explains why I haven't been listed yet even though the cat has a short queue. Like was mentioned above, it probably does fit better in the recruiting category, although that category has no editor either.

Would I be accepted as an editor to this category if I give this as a reason: "To be honest, I applied to edit this category because it looks like it will take years for my site to be added <img src="/images/icons/frown.gif" alt="" /> I'd like to point out that this category could be greatly expanded to include the recruiting companies, battalions, and individual recruiting stations that have their own web sites. I'd be willing to take on this task."

Would I be accepted with that reason? <img src="/images/icons/grin.gif" alt="" />
