=========================
The LoTR site was submitted just 6 days ago and that is too early to be asking for a site submission status. We normally recommend waiting a MINIMUM of two weeks before enqurying - ideally a month. Remember, the more time editors spend giving site status updates, the less time we have to edit. Anyway, it's there in a small queue (less than a dozen sites awaiting). To be honest with you, I'm not sure what the chance of your site being listed is. I've seen sites with more content than yours, and if a site doesn't have "
Original, unique and valuable informational content that contributes something unique to the category's subject" then it won't be listed. It's usually easy to get a site listed in a small category that has just got started (as there isn't much "competition"), but once a category has grown and already lists very comprehensive, informative sites - then it gets harder.
The decision, however, will be left up to the "local editor" of that category.
www.geocities.com/stephen_rf/front-page.html
============================================
That site is NOT in the unreviewed queue of the
category, nor has it been deleted from the unreviewed queue of that or any other category. Are you sure that is where you submitted? (I actually checked the queue for
http://www.geocities.com/stephen_rf/ as the 'front-page.html' bit may be classed as an unnecessary 'deeplink').
This does, at least to someone unfamilar with the topic, seem an informative and well researched detailed site (even though the 'click sounding' flash buttons are annoying) - so it _probably_ stands a good chance of being listed.
