Or did you mean "editor applications"? :confused: I checked just now and couldn't find one from you awaiting review.
Yaa editor and suggested website(owned by me) both.
You should avail my expertise on Hinduism(sanatana dharma is real name).

We can provide a status of an editor application here, but need to know more than a real name:
  • Proposed editor name
  • Category applied for
  • Date of application
Post these and we can take a look :cool:

You would have received reviewer comments with that application, which detailed the reason(s) why it was turned down. The general idea is that the prospective editor figures out how to fix the issue(s) for the next application they make.

This is the message that I got.
Thank you for your interest in becoming a DMOZ editor.
After careful review, we have decided not to approve your application at
this time. The most common reasons a reviewer will deny a new application
include, but are not limited to,

* Incomplete application. Insufficient information has been provided in some
fields including reason, affiliation and/or Sample URLs.
* Improper spelling and grammar.
* Sample URLs are inappropriate for the category which one has applied to
edit. They may be too broad, too narrow, completely out of scope, poor
quality, or in a language inappropriate for the category. All non-English
sites are listed in the World category. Applications for World categories
that include sites only in English will be denied. Likewise, applications
for World categories that include sample URLs in languages other than the one
appropriate for the applied category will be denied.
* Not properly disclosing affiliations with websites that are, or have the
potential of being, listed in the category.
* Titles and descriptions of sample URLs (and other information provided)
were subjective and promotional rather than unbiased and objective. DMOZ
editors do not rank or write website reviews. DMOZ editors provide objective
and unbiased descriptions of websites and their content.
* Self-Promotion. Application which leads us to believe that the candidate is
interested primarily in promoting his/her own sites or those with which the
applicant is affiliated. DMOZ is not a marketing tool, and should not be
used to circumvent the site submission process. If this is an applicant's
motivation for joining, then we ask him/her not to apply. Editors found to be
inappropriately promoting their own site will be promptly removed.

Due to the large number of applications we get every day, we are unable to
provide personal responses to every application or to respond to inquiries
about why you were rejected. If a reviewer chose to provide additional
comments to you, they will be given in the "Reviewer Comments" section below.

Your willingness to volunteer is greatly appreciated and perhaps we will be
able to utilize your talent in the future.

Regards,
DMOZ - The Open Directory Project

Dear Pulkit Thakur,

Your willingness to volunteer is greatly appreciated and perhaps we will be able to utilize your talent in the future. You only suggested two sites, one of which is your own forum. Your forum may well be listable but not until it has around 10K posts and has been going for at least 18 months, or more. Forums need to show longevity before they are listed.

If you wish to apply again, please use 3 new url's.

No need to tell us what reply you got.
Just read the reply very carefully and try again making any change you think is needed.
People who apply to become an editor are expected to be able to do this by themself (without any help on this forum) as it is a task similar to the tasks editors will have to do on a daily basis.
