I know you don't do site submission status checks anymore....

... but the FAQs say that a month after submission I can come on here to check if my site was submitted succesfully -

http://resource-zone.com/forum/faq.php?faq=faq_site_questions

"How long should I wait before I resubmit?
The simple answer is "forever".
The ODP submission guidelines used to say to do it every month, but this has been rendered unnecessary by changes in how the ODP works. Once a submission has been received, it will never go away. It will sit in that category, awaiting review. Submissions do not expire.

So the preferred method is now to suggest the site to the category and wait at least a month. If, after a month, the site has not appeared, then come to Resource Zone and check that the site submission was successful (some do get lost). If an editor tells you to resubmit, then please do. Once an editor has confirmed that the submission is awaiting editorial review, then submitting again will do no good."

Could you please tell me if my submission was succesful, if so I'll wait patiently like I'm told!

The site was www.24parrot.com and it was submitted to Shopping/pets/birds/accessories

Thanks

Nice try. :)
But no, we won't tell you any status.
I've asked that the FAQ will be updated.

Think I deserve an answer for spotting that. Bet you're rewriting the FAQ now aren't you :)

Results in an incredible feeling of self worth and satisfaction that is its own reward.

You can spend the rest of the day basking in the knowledge that you have done your part in helping to make the Internet a better place, and in doing so you will also gain priceless insight into what motivates editors to edit.

You get a gold star for spotting it but that's it, I'm afraid. It's been corrected. Thanks for that. :D
