Hello,

The site was submitted to the appropriate category (altho at the time the category was without an editor). Just checking in for a status update. Many thanks.

First - But what you think is the appropriate category may not match our best guess.

[readme]Please read the guidelines[/readme]

Your submission request is incomplete
At a minimum check that

• You have provided a clickable category link and that it works
• That you have waited one month since you last submitted. [If you submitted six months ago, and again last week - that's not a month]

Bookmark, and reply to this thread when you are ready to proceed, do not start another thread.

Clarification please

Hello,

Bobrat meant your status check request, as the included link describes.

Editor for Palmdale real estate category?

http://www.dmoz.org/Regional/North_America/United_States/California/Localities/P/Palmdale/Business_and_Economy/Real_Estate/

I submitted to the above category and noticed that the last time it was updated was Monday, May 19, 2003 - does this mean that no submissions have been reviewed since this date? (image of my skeleton, replete with cobwebs and old corfee here, as I await the outcome of my submission ) If you guys would like an editor for the category, I volunteer!

Other than that, how far down the e-pile of submissions am I (or rather my site) ... Thanks.

Best,
Sandee

When was it submitted? Thanks.

It was submitted over a month ago, at the end of October.

Thanks.

It was submitted 16/November/2004 08:29:29 GMT, and a month should pass before you request a status update. Not 5 days! That should tell you that we have received it, and you can check back in 6 months if it hasn't been listed by then. Thanks for the enquiry, but please follow the forum guidelines.

Editors do not always review sites in the order received and sites waiting for review can be sorted several ways so it is impossible to say when review might take place.

No, there are many categories where the vast majority (99.9+%) of submittals don't belong. Such categories may be edited very regularly, but the only activity is rejecting hopeless sites and moving not-obviously-hopeless sites to more appropriate categories. There is no way for you to tell whether this is an orphan category or a mis-submittal magnet category, or some combination of the above.

For example, a submitter once reported that (a) his category hadn't been modified for two years, but (b) his site seemed to be hit by editors every two weeks or so. Obviously his category was a mis-submittal magnet, but his own site was neither obviously hopeless, obviously mis-submitted, nor obviously unique or needed. The regular editors regularly checked all the submittals, but didn't take on the thankless task of proving a probably-hopeless site was certainly-hopeless.
