Hello,

I don't want to ask a personnal question but a general one (sorry for my english!) : I would like to know how are organized (and controled) "little" categories without editor or with one editor?

I ask this question because my website has disapear from the request where I am during 3 or 4 years and... There is only one reply (one website) on this request!!! I have re-suggest my website and... a long time have passed (6 month?) and it's always the same reply. I know that there is several quality websites which can be added, not only mine! But nothing...

I have hesitate to become Editor of this category but I'm not doing that because i'm also sellers and I think it's not correct, I can't be objective... but someone else can do this no?

Thanks for your reply and your information,
Best regards,
Gaëlle

PS : name(s) of editor(s) are public informations?

Over 200 editors can work in any category that they wish :).

If you're interested in becoming an editor, by all means apply. Many of us own websites and still manage to edit fairly :).

I would also be interested to know how the editors system is organized.
As to Sinai & Sharm el Sheikh no editors are mentioned. Does that mean there are no editors???

No, it does not.
Every editor mentioned on a higher category can work in a category.
In your example
Regional/Africa/Egypt/Governorates/Sinai_South/Sharm_al_Sheikh/
higher categories means
Regional/Africa/Egypt/Governorates/Sinai_South/
Regional/Africa/Egypt/Governorates/
Regional/Africa/Egypt/
Regional/Africa/
Regional/
Also there are editors with global rights, they can edit everywhere in DMOZ.
But remember the fact that they can does not mean that they will work in a category.

Hello Gaëlle,
To answer the other questions, having an interest in a website/company listed in a category is not a problem as long as you don't show any favoritism - The editor nicknames are public and permanent, if you choose one based on your real name, anonymity is out ;)
Otherwise, real names and locations are public or not by the individual editors choice.

btw there is also a French forum here...
