Hi everyone,

I have a question. In the case where an editor of a category is also a web site/business owner in that category who chooses not to list competing sites and only lists his own or unrelated sites (in this case non-profit so there really is no point). Is there anyone at DMOZ that can be contacted to have that editors submissions reviewed?

Please don't take this the wrong way - I am a huge fan of DMOZ and the hand-selected model search engine, but like everything in life, there is always some bad with the good and I am just looking for a process to follow to help...

TIA,
Aaron

Editor abuse can and does occur although its not nearly as rampant as sometimes is suggested. We take allegations of abuse very seriously and when its found it is swiftly addressed and the problems corrected. Anyone with evidence can file an abuse report via http://report-abuse.dmoz.org/ which is found at the top of each directory category as well.

Keep in mind that failing to list a site is NOT abuse in and of its self. Unfair treatment of ones own sites and/or mishandling of competitor sites would be considered abuse.
