Report Hijacks, Dead Links, Inappropriate DMOZ Content, and other issues here ONLY

Hi crowbar,

I can't see nea said anything about my posts. Was there something that later on was edited?

I'm sorry, I meant dobariya.

I don't have permissions to edit in Asia, but, thank you for pointing those out, simonjq, .

Same for you, chaz7979, I don't edit those cats, but I can still say thank you.

Dead Link Needs to be changed. Previous submits have been ignored = no action!

Dear DEMOZ

The following., which I found in a Google search = [ ZMMquality ], has a link that goes to the wrong place. GO TO HERE AND YOU WILL SEE IT http://www.google.com/Top/Arts/Literature/Authors/P/Pirsig,_Robert_M./

There it has the follwwing entry =

ZMMQuality.Org - http://www.zmmquality.org
Teaching, learning, and exploration of the book "Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance", and information on places and people mentioned in the book.


The Link needs to be changed to the following new information and correct link =

ZMM Quality - http://ww2.usca.edu/ResearchProjects/ProfessorGurr/
Exploration of book "Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance". Information on places and people mentioned in the book. Has 12 color photos taken on Robert Pirsig's very own camera!

***************************************

As I understand it, the whole Google Directory comes from the DEMOZ Directory.

Google Directory shows the above as being in
Society > Religion and Spirituality > Buddhism > Lineages > Zen

So this should also be in DEMOZ, but I can't find it.

As the web master for the above WebSite, I hope the above can be corrected for the benefit of the Open Directory Users.

SIDE NOTE, My WebPage above is correctly listed the last item at
http://dmoz.org/Arts/Literature/Authors/P/Pirsig,_Robert_M./


Henry Gurr
Professor of Physics Emeritus
University of South Carolina Aiken
471 University Parkway
Aiken South Carolina 29801
803 643 6823 (14 rings will get a secretary)

The above is an update request - please navigate to the listing in the directory at www.dmoz.org and make the request there using the "update listing" link.

Thank you.


Added - ok reading this again (and again). It looks like the listing update in the ODP has occurred. Google directory updates their information irregularly. What has been changed in the ODP will not be reflected in the Google directory until Google updates their directory. We have no control over when that may happen.

As you can see, there is a fair bit of repitition here, a lot of it, understandably is for regional offices, but surely there should be a single company listed, not 3 different ones, often referring to each other?

Your thoughts please....

Simon

Website not working correctly

I have just been looking at www.computer-recovery.com, and the site isnt working properly. There are issues with graphics, and links dont work properly.

I just thought I would bring it to your attention?

Simon

Re item2915
The site works as do internal links for me in IE6 and FF. The broken images are a minor annoyance, but do not make the site unusable, just unproffessional looking. Since looks are not a criteria for listing I don't see a problem with it being listed.

The owner might appreciate someone letting them know if you feel like being kind..
