Hi, I submitted an application today but I haven't received any email confirmation request from DMOZ. I have tried the forgot password and successfully changed the password, but when I try to login it says:
User needs an email address verification before the user can login.

My username is: mzebs
Editor Name: Mubarak Zeb
Applied under category: /Regional/Europe/United_Kingdom/England/Bedfordshire/Luton/

Generally, if you don't receive an email asking you to confirm your editor application, there is a problem and you'll have to try again.
Keeping a copy of the application can be useful for that, and also to understand a possible rejection mail and reviewer comments...

This message means you are not an editor (yet).
The editor name is known by the system but can not login. It needs to be verified/activated by a meta/catmod. This will be done when the application is accepted.

You should have got a mail, with reviewer comments - essentially, the category was too large to start in - just pick a smaller one (ie. a subcategory) and apply again :2cents:

Hi Elper, Thanks for the response. I have now submitted my application by selecting a sub-category. Thanks

It's still there - There's really no need to re-request the status, you'll get a mail whatever the decision when it's reviewed.
