Status för http://www.golfskottland.com

Sorry to ask in English - hope this is OK.

Could you advise status for http://www.golfskottland.com , which was submitted to http://dmoz.org/World/Svenska/Sport/Golf/Resor/?

I appreciate we have submitted more than once, but the original submission was made in November 2003 and we thought it was simply being ignored. I have just discovered this forum or would have asked before!

The site appears to meet all requirements, is in Swedish, has unique content, is aimed at Swedish golfers and there is an email address, info@golfskottland.com, associated with the site.

Your help much appreciated!

Hi Joan,

The site is waiting for an editor to review it. It seems eligible to be listed, but to be perfectly honest I hope you didn't pay the translator any money.

Cheers,

Hi Jophan,

Thanks for getting back to me so quickly.

Know anyone who wouldn't charge a fortune to review the Swedish for me? It was worked on by two native speakers for me believe it or not!!

Cheers,

Joan

Joan,

I'm sure they are native speakers, but they are not skilled writers and they have definitely never done translations before. The information on the pages is clear, no worries there, but the grammar and spelling leave a lot to desire. It would probably take a professional a couple of hours to clean up. I don't know what it would cost. There's a dmoz category here.

If I had been living in Edinburgh I could have done it for a bottle of single malt!

Thanks Jophan,

I would have been more than happy to pay you in whisky! I will check out some options - thanks for the advice!

Update on status for http://www.golfskottland.com

Just wondered if there was any progress with this yet please? I am working on improving the Swedish but hopefully this is not a reason for us not to be included?

many thanks!

I don´t think the Swedish is the reason you have not been listed yet, rather the lack of active Swedish editors.
