Duplicate listings / Double slashes in URLs
We have detected about 100.000 URLs that are listed twice or more times in the directory. In most cases the sites are listed in different categories.
Should we post a list of these URLs or are these sites listed in multiple categories to make the directory more consistent ?
In addition, we have a list of about 70 URLs, that have double slashes in the URLs ( e.g. http://www.netvalveusa.com// ). Should we post a list of these URLs ?
OK. And here is an easy one:
http://dbappbuilder.sf.net./Rel.html
This is a bad URL, because it has an additional dot after the .net.

Two same sites in one category
I thought you might like to know that you have two sites in the same category that are operated by the same company. Please go here:
http://dmoz.org/Regional/Asia/India/Business_and_Economy/Computers_and_Internet/Internet/Web_Services/
Magna Infotech and Magna Seo. Both of these sites are connected to the same company, if you see the contact page you will find the same addresses too.
I hope this information is helpful.

link changed to empty placeholder
http://www.sentex.net/~dewood/
used to be what the description says, the content was changed to a Blank page with only html tags SEVERAL months ago.
another link:
http://www.sentex.net/~dewood/micro_north/
is a DEAD link, 404 and has been been for some time now.
I suspect the person who owns this domain is a DMOZ editor, I reported this long ago and nothing has been done about it, so I applied to be an editor in that catagory and was promptly refused!
There is a back-story behind this, but I won't post it here.

It would help to have the categories that these URLs are in to find them faster.
<added>Nevermind. It looks like both URLs were removed from the directory some time ago. The Public side of the directory takes some time to catch up.</added>

The one probably has nothing to do with another. If you suspect abuse and have some evidence to back it up, please file an abuse report. We take allegations of abuse very seriously and investigate them thoroughly. Otherwise, please keep your baseless accusations to yourself.I suspect the person who owns this domain is a DMOZ editor, I reported this long ago and nothing has been done about it, so I applied to be an editor in that catagory and was promptly refused!

ahh... I was looking in the public directory and yes they are still there, but when I went to the specific directory they were listed in, they were gone!
thank you for the clarification.
Invalid Link
Category: http://www.dmoz.org/Health/Senses/Vision/
Listing:
Optical Middle East - Optical trade show held at the Dubai World Trade Centre.
Link: http://www.opticalmiddleeast.com
I checked the link at dnsreport.com and it tells me it's down.
It might be just a temporary thing, but I thought I would at least let you know that this may be something you want to keep your eye on.
Thanks

Unfortunately, we only have your word to go on this. While we don't list obviously illegal websites, we're also not lawyers. We're also not the Internet police.
What you will need to do is pursue your own legal recourse against the maker of this product and those websites. If/when those sites no longer function or are deemed no longer useful enough to remain listed, then we will remove them from the directory.

3 Listings
Hi I recieved an email from this morming from a DMOZ admin after I sent a very polite email apologising for duplicate submissions of my site to more than one music catogory. And the Admin in question said;
Although a site simler to mine below has 3 listings for the same site and I have been told this is against the rules.
http://search.dmoz.org/cgi-bin/search?search=anthems.com
So how can 2 of my sites submissions be regected for submitting to different listings but there be sites that have had 3 listing for over 2 months or more?

If you read the submittal policies, it won't say "select one category for every page of your site". It says ONE category for your SITE. Thus, the Chat and Sound Files submittals have been rejected, as they ought to have been and as you could have expected that they would be..

Links no longer exist
The site http://www.cardplayer.com which is listed in Games/Gambling/Poker
is also listed in the following subcats of Poker:
a) Games: Gambling: Poker: Omaha Holdem
b) Games: Gambling: Poker: Stud
c) Games: Gambling: Poker: Online Cardrooms: Guides
The problem is that the each listing only takes you to the cardplayer homepage. The site most likely has been updated and for that reason those listed links no longer lead to anything.

Hi,
Thanks for your reply.
Actually, we contacted them about the issue directly long before. Their previous website does no longer exist.
Until rencently, we ran across their new website http://www.deflash.net, still selling the ripper version of our software. We tried to find their contact info on the website but failed. If we manage to contact them, they may not give any response.
So, currently, to stop the action, we have to resort to the help of the website who is listing DeFlash. We've contacted those websites listing DeFlash, most of them looked into the issue and was convinced that DeFlash is a ripper version of Sothink SWF Decompiler, and removed the listing from their websites.
We know that you are busy working. But we really need your help to resovle the issue, as the majority of sites who linked Deflash are mirrors of Dmoz.org, seen from the search result of Yahoo or Google.
If I reported the issue to the wrong place of the forum, would you please advise me who is responsible for it, or where is the right place to post it?
Thanks! We really need your help.
Best regards from China!!
I am not really even a senior editor, but....
If DeFlash is a "ripper" version of your software, you might try filing a DMCA claim against the host of their website. It's not our policy to consider whether a site is a copyright violator. (I should add that I've published a site which I'm almost certain is a copyright violator, as it contains unattributed material which I know the actual author.)
