Hello,
I checked the Dmoz directory this morning and my site was listed (www.eklecticmix.com) However, it was listed as Eclectic Mix. I requested that the name be corrected to Eklectic Mix Gifts and Designs (which is the name of my site) When I checked the Dmoz site this evening I noticed that my site is not listed at all. Did I do something wrong? I also noticed that the updated date on the site is June 2003.

Thanks for all of your help :)

The site is still in http://editors.dmoz.org/Shopping/General_Merchandise/E/ (as it has been since October, and where it has one of the longer descriptions there.) It's also waiting in Regional/North_America/United_States/California/Localities/L/Los_Angeles/Business_and_Economy/Shopping for a possible second listing: it was sent there on editor initiative. (Looks like a couple of editors really liked the site, BTW.) However, they did agree that the title of the listing is correct as it is. Also, our guidelines are pretty rigid about only one listing in Shopping per company -- so several submitted deeplinks seem to have been rejected.

As for what you saw this morning and evening, there are several public dmoz.org servers right now, and at least one of them is badly out of date. I think you just happened to see the out-of-date one later. In any case, nothing happened to change that. The site is listed once, waiting for review once.

Wheew,
Thanks for your help Hutcheson. I was so bummed when I didn't see the site there anymore. I am wondering if the editors would be so kind as to change the listing back to Eklectic Mix instead of Eclectic Mix.

I don't mean to pester you, but will the server that is showing outdated information correct itself?

Thanks again for all of your help!!
Happy Holidays
