Greetings:

3 months ago I submitted my site, <URL removed> in the category http://www.dmoz.org/Regional/North_America/United_States/Minnesota/Localities/S/Saint_Paul/

It has yet to be listed, and I am wondering if the 3+ month wait is typical right now. I did apply to be an editor for this category, thinking that since it is missing many, many things it may be a sign of an over-worked editor - but I was turned down for that.

I was also wondering if we are notified when a submission is turned down.

Thanks so much! I'd like to help dmoz, but I can't find a category small enough that I would be approved to be an editor.

There is not typical tiem between suggesting a site and it being reviewed. Due to the way DMOZ works this can vary between a few days and many years.

You will have received an email with a list of common mistakes, one or more of these common mistakes apply to your application.

No you won't

There are many categories with less than 50 listings. Did you already look at your own hometown, it or a subcat of it might be small enough and you will have easy access (local newspapers, signs on stores etc) to resources to find new sites.
