Not there I'm afraid and neither has any editor moved or declined it. I suggest you resubmit it.

It would help if someone did it for me, i know who that editor is and i dont think he'd add it anyway.

We don't do that.

neither has any editor moved or declined it means that it hasn't been touched or influenced by any editor. It's just that any previous submission either failed for some reason or you submitted it elsewhere.

Its been more than a month now and its nowhere to be seen, so what now? I've submitted it 3 times in the past 3 months so dont tell me to submit it again cause its obvious no one is reading it.

The submission is currently awaiting editorial review in the category. There is no need to resubmit as it is currently waiting for review. Thanks.

A Simple Edit Please

http://dmoz.org/Sports/Soccer/UEFA/England/Clubs/L/Leicester_City/

I submitted my entry to changing the description of my website, this was done a day later, not correctly as the editor purposely left out the most important word that i NEED in there. I then submitted another entry asking to correct this, but no action was taken. Reason for this? The editor of the section my site is in is actually my main rival :mad:

So can someone please do this for me? I only want one word putting into the description.

My website is Foxestalk
Current description is "A City forum to discuss news, games, players, and transfers."

I'd like it changing to "Leicester City forum to discuss news, games, players, and transfers."

Thanks

Your request is unreasonable. Since that word is in the category, the editor quite properly (following the editorial guidelines) omitted it.

And, for the record (not that it matters to us in the least) you don't "need" that word there anyway. If you knew what you were doing, you wouldn't even want it. It will not help your site in the search engines; it will not help your site for surfers (who know it must be about Leicester, else it wouldn't be in the Leicester category.)

1. You can't ask for updates through the forum - you have to use the categroy update link

2. Don't ask for that change, a general rule in descriptions is to omit any words that are already in the category name, as it's redundant to repeat the words.

3. Don't respond that some of the descriptions in that category have Leicester City - sometimes we end up doing that :) we aren't perfect

The word Leicester City has to be there in full. If that word is so unreasonable, how come so many other sites are allowed the word Leicester in the description and not mine?

I'm asking for hardly anything here, and i'm suprised at this feedback.

There is no such necessity as you feel. I repeat, there is absolutely no ethical nor practical reason why you should even want what you demand. Scratch the idiot who told you you needed it, off of your list of people who have a clue.
