Item 2941 completed. Being updated is not necessarily a requirement for listing - although there are instances where it might be. It is still a valuable asset to that category if it holds unique historical information.

Thank you for providing the alternate URL.

Thanks for that, I just don't want Robin's site to be hijacked since he is a good friend and was a great player. I will keep the content online since it has proved popular with rugby fans.

Regards
Kevin

Well its quite possible no volunteer has looked at this thread or it could be that this listing is in World/Francais and no editors comfortable with the language have ventured in. Rest assured it has now been taken care of. :)

# 2944 was solved. It seems the editors still handle the job, just sometime a bit slow. Keep up your good work.

Well, it depends on your concept of "slow"... 2 days after the first report is not necessarily slow, given that one need to check that it was not just a temporary problem. Although we are very keen to remove listings that have lost their content or is not working anymore.

2914 and 2915? This one certainly seems to be taking some time - though it looks like it could be a bit of a toughy!

Yes, it takes some time because we are all volounteers here and don´t work on some specific schedule. So 2 weeks since reporting isn´t relly that long time to resolve the matters, as it is not just one simple listing you reported.

Now that you have brought it to our attention again there´s no need to come here with an attitude that we aren´t doing things at fast as you may want. Be patient, please. :cool:

item 2914:

Corporate Takeovers

A year or so back, IBAS were taken over by ONTRACK who themselves are now called KROLL ONTRACK. Having checked the directory, there are many listings for all three of these companies:

Please note the duplicates of ibas.com, ibas.fi, ibas.no and ibas.pl
...
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....
Click to expand...

Ibas is still a working company in the Nordic region as I understand:
Efter Kroll Ontracks köp har Ibas ansvar för den nordiska regionen och dotterbolag finns i Sverige, Finland, Danmark och Holland.
Click to expand...

Because of the way the site is set up (one domain for each language) it seems reasonable that the different domains is listed in respective World/ categories.

Regarding the duplicates it´s not explicitly forbidden to list a domain in different categories if its considered useful, but the main rule is to list a site once at the best category ( http://dmoz.org/guidelines/site-specific.html#multiple ).

item 2915:

Same content, 3 different entries?

fields-data-recovery.co.uk
fields-data-recovery.com
fieldsassociates.com

All have the same text, its just shown in a different template style.
Click to expand...

The texts doesn´t look the same to me. Seems listable.

Dead links and Replicas found

Please review the following links as I walkthrough "Top: Business: Textiles and Nonwovens: Machinery and Equipment: Online Measurement and Control" section to check my site inclusion, surprise to note Dead links and Replicas, which I thought of informing you.

Dead Links (3) tried to link three times but failed:
1. http://www.radiometrie.com/
2. http://www.orintex.it/
3. http://www.advanzgauge.com/

Replicas (3) these sites I found to be from same companies only presentation is different.

1. This site has different domain but after few seconds points to same domain.
http://www.isravision.com/
http://www.lasorsystronics.com/
http://www.lasor.com/

2. This site has been listed for two languages, but from same company.
http://www.incore-systemes.fr/
http://www.incore-systemes.com/

3. These sites are the representatives of each other but have common goal, so I thought of how they can be unique to each other.

Please treat above as just an observation from me, nothing else.

Thanks

Irrelevant Site in a category

Please review this site content as I feel are not relevant to "Top: Business: Industrial Goods and Services: Machinery and Tools: Directories" category.

This site doesn't have any thing for Machines or tools, its all about real state
