Bad sites listed

Hi!
I`ll explain what do I consider "bad":
1. Sites that sell illegal (non licensed) content/products.
2. Sites that have most pages with Fatal error
3. Sites that show 404 instead of index.
4. Sites that have show quite opposite pages on local version and english version.
Enough? I guess that this list combines well with ODP terms.

Now I ask responsible editors to check it for bad sites this category: http://www.dmoz.org/World/Russian/%d0%9f%d0%be%d0%ba%d1%83%d0%bf%d0%ba%d0%b8/%d0%a0%d0%b0%d0%b7%d0%b2%d0%bb%d0%b5%d1%87%d0%b5%d0%bd%d0%b8%d1%8f/%d0%9c%d0%b5%d0%b4%d0%b8%d0%b0-%d0%bf%d1%80%d0%be%d0%b4%d1%83%d0%ba%d1%82%d1%8b/%d0%92%d0%b8%d0%b4%d0%b5%d0%be/ .
Thank you.

Whenever a volunteer editor feels like it, I´m sure the category would be updated.

It would be of great help though if you could specify which listed sites should be removed and why in each case.

4. Sites that have show quite opposite pages on local version and english version.
I´m not sure that disqualifies a listing, each listing is evaluated separately in the different language trees.

Category Entry Issues

Hi!

While searching:

http://www.dmoz.org/Regional/North_...es/P/Polson/Business_and_Economy/Real_Estate/

I encountered the following issues I wanted to bring to your attention:

Duplicate Entry in Same Category. The URL of the second entry below is redirected to the URL of the first entry

Big Fork Real Estate - Serving Bigfork, Polson, and Kalispell Montana.

Wilma Mixon-Hall ERA Compass Realty Sales Executive - Site for properties in the Flathead Lake area, Polson, Montana.​

Duplicate Entry in Same Category. I suspect the second entry below hosted on a freeweb server is the one that needs to be removed because the first entry has it's own URL.

Montana International Realty Plus - Specializing in ranch real estate, farmland and lakefront property. Includes current listings and area information.

Montana International Realty Plus - Local owner and broker selling western Montana ranch, residential, and recreational properties.​

Ok, no problem. It`s a local category, so I`ll just copy-paste descriptions in Russian.

Category
1. Вестерн-фильм - Фильмы жанра "вестерн" на DVD и в Mpeg-4. Каталог, обратная связь, вопросы и ответы.

Reason: 4 of 6 links from the main page show Fatal Error. Western-movies catalogue consists 1 (one) film.

2. Иллюзион - Каталог фильмов по жанрам. Заказ и доставка наложенным платежом.

Reason: On-line shop sells 100% illegal video content.

3. Рок концерт - Музыкальное видео с записью на заказ и доставкой по России.

Reason: On-line shop sells 100% illegal video content.

4. 3dvideo.ru - Образовательное и обучающее видео. Доставка наложенным платежом по России.

Reason: On-line shop sells 100% illegal video content.

5. Home-video.ru - Каталог фильмов по жанрам. Перевод VHS на DVD. Условия работы. Доставка по России.

Reason: "К сожалению, сайт интернет-магазина Home-Video.RU не работает в веб-браузере Netscape." - translation: "Unfortunately, Home-Video.RU on-line shop can not be displayed for Netscape users." I saw this message using Firefox and IE. I suppose it`s an error.

6. KinoBox - Фильмы на английском, немецком, французском, испанском, китайском, японском языках с русскими субтирами. Доставка по России.

Reason: On-line shop sells 100% illegal video content. Disclaimer: "Вы платите только за носитель информации (диск) и за его доставку, фильмы предназначены ТОЛЬКО для ознакомительного просмотра." translation: "You pay only for the disc and delivery, all presented movies are only for examination purpose." I say how nice!

7. Kinomag.ru - Редкое, интеллектуальное, некоммерческое, независимое и авторское кино на видео и dvd. Режиссеры, актеры, рецензии.

Reason: On-line shop sells 100% illegal video content.

8. Oldfilms.ru - Классика мирового кино на русском языке. Новости, форум, правила заказа и доставки.

Reason: On-line shop sells 100% illegal video content.

9. Top1video - Собрание российского кино в Соединенных Штатах. Мультисистемная техника. Профессиональный видео перевод Pal-Ntsc.

Reason: Should be delited at all or transfered to USA branch because they sell movies in Los Angeles, CA. I`m pretty sure that all videos are unlicensed and illegal as well.

10. White night's anime collection - Запись и обмен аниме. Новости, гостева, каталог. Доставка наложенным платежом.

Reason: On-line shop sells 100% illegal video content.
