As per the forum guidelines please supply a clickable link to the dmoz category you submitted to. Without this we are unable to find out any information about your submission.

Thank you

The link above is clickable for me. Why wouldn't it work for you?

We need clickable link to the category you submitted www.gun-magazines.com to.

Without that, all I could say is said site has not been touched by any editor, it may or may not be in any unreviewed pool.

It should be in this catagory and or one of its sub-catagories.
http://www.dmoz.com/Shopping/Recreation/Guns/

I have other sies that were natually indexed in DMOZ wihtout my submission to destinations in similar catagories. I don't know what specifics beyond this it may be applied to.
Thank you.

It isn't in the unreviewed pool of that category, or its subcats.

Please, resubmit only to one category that best fit the site.

Once again, I have just now submitted this site again at the aforementioned DMOZ destination; however, once I submmit the URL, I recieve the following:
http://editors.dmoz.org/cgi-bin/addnew.cgi
The page you attempted to access does not exist on this site.
The closest matches are:

Please advise on how to proceed.

Try suggesting your site using this category link:
http://dmoz.org/Shopping/Recreation/Guns/

No. It was more than likely a bad link since you were trying to access the editor server and not the public one.

Again, try your suggestion here:
http://dmoz.org/Shopping/Recreation/Guns/

The page/link you should be receiving is this:
http://dmoz.org/cgi-bin/add.cgi?where=Shopping/Recreation/Guns

It has worked for me everytime. Maybe you should consider your browser settings.

Yes, I get that page. I enter the data, and after clicking "submit, I get the aforementioned denial.

Weird. When using http://dmoz.org/cgi-bin/add.cgi?where=Shopping/Recreation/Guns , I got the same error from http://dmoz.org/cgi-bin/addnew.cgi "The page you attempted to access does not exist on this site." I'll check in internal forums in a while.

Anyway the www.gun-magazines.com is now waiting review using kgt9000's title and description given above, with about 10 dozen other sites. I've manually added it to the unreviewed pool.

I was using IE6 on XP Home with SP2 to submit. Also tried using Mozilla1.4 but got same error.

Please review the same for the other listings I've posted in this forum today. Many seem to hvae the same fate.

Also, I'm still waiting to hear on the www.allbikeparts.com listing. Can you check into these, too?
Your time is much appreciated.

Please post your suggested title, description and target category in those relevant threads, where you have problem resubmitting a site to one appropriate category . Some kind editor (not necessarily me) will take care of it.
