Re: http://www. killersitesdesign.com status

Your attention is drawn to the Forum gudelines that you had been told about previously in http://resource-zone.com/showflat.php?Cat=&Number=33021&page=&view=&sb=5&o=&vc=1

Following the rules will increase your chances of getting an asnwer.

You should also read the submission guidelines for mirror sites in http://www.dmoz.org/add.html

That is, in these two separate threads you are asking about two different URL's - but you can't have both of them in ODP since they are the same content.

Re: http://www. killersitesdesign.com status

I readed the guidelines. Those are 2 different domains, the first submission was never accepted, so I'm not postulating 2 sites. I'm just submitting a new site killersitesdesign.com to a new category because in fact the new one is english and the old was spanish.
I don't want to have both listed since www.killersites.com.ar was never accepted. The new one is trying to correct any possible mistake made before.
In fact the old domain will be down very soon.
Would you please tell me if there is some way to kill the old submission for killersites.com.ar and just leave the new one?

The best way would be for you to put a redirect on the ar site to the new one - then, when an editor comes to review the site, they will see that redirect and do the right thing. Thanks.

Re: http://www. killersitesdesign.com status

I did! Finally: does that means the site wasn't reviewed yet? Or is there any problem with it?
(That was the question at the very beginning)

In order for us to be able to check status of a submitted URL, as per the forum guidelines, laid out on the "PLEASE READ BEFORE POSTING" message at the head of this forum, we need you to provide a clickable link to the category where the site was submitted. Thanks.

A submission dated 17/Feb/2004 awaits editorial review in the category you named. It has not been reviewed yet. If you made earlier submission, the newer one overwrote the older ones. Thank you.

Thank you! I'll wait then.
When do you consider a proper time to ask / track again?
One month ahead?

Too crowded for what? I'm sorry, but I don't really understand your question.

And it's no bother.

Difficult to answer - since you would have to define what number is "too many" or "lots'", what would YOU think is too many?

That's why we don't answer those questions too much any more. Two sites waiting for the review in that category might be too many, if no editor did any editing in the category. 300 would not be too many, if an editor was going through and cleaning up the backlog, and doing 30 sites per day.

Just wait

Is resubmitting a waste of time? I mean if the submitted site wasn't reviewed in last 6 months, a new submission would put you down on the queue and you'd be lost some months?

If the site is already in the unreviewed pile, yes, resubmitting would be a waste of time.

If not?

Ok.
In what condition would not be a waste of time?

If the editor consider the site should go in other related category, will the editor move it to that category or the process continue?

If it's bounced for a reason, I still have to wait 6 months to know it, due to the guidelines?

Resubmitting could be a waste of your time because one of the sort options that editors have the option of using is by the oldest submission date, this means that if your resubmit, you overwrite the old submission (and the date) so that you might not get edited right away.

Well, you might ask, how exactly does that work. It can work like this. It is lunchtime, I have my sandwhich and 30 minutes. Gulp Gulp, the food is gone and I have 15 minutes. Where shall I editot today? I may cherry pick cateogries that have one or two sites waiting, or I may dive into the deepest pool of submissions that I can find and knock off some of the ones that have been swimming around for the longest. I'll work until it is time to work and then who knows when I will come back to that particular submission pool.

If you resubmitted, you might not make it to the top of today editing list.
