res17 Posted May 16, 2004 Posted May 16, 2004 Hi there! I would just like to check the status of our submission. The site is http://www.rshydro.co.uk. Can anyone tell me how it's getting on. It was submitted a very long time ago. Also if it has been successful how do I change it's title and description (if required). Many thanks Rob
res17 Posted May 16, 2004 Author Posted May 16, 2004 Sorry about that. Realised as soon as I sent it. I think we submitted the site to the following directory...http://dmoz.org/Business/Electronics_and_Electrical/Instrumentation/Flow/ Website: http://www.rshydro.co.uk Cheers Rob
res17 Posted May 16, 2004 Author Posted May 16, 2004 www.rshydro.co.uk Oops.. directory submitted to: http://dmoz.org/Business/Electronics_and_Electrical/Instrumentation/Flow/ Could you check this submission out for me. Many thanks Rob
bobrat Posted May 16, 2004 Posted May 16, 2004 It seems you may have submitted to two categories [no problem] It was found in http://dmoz.org/Business/Electronics_and_Electrical/Instrumentation and moved to http://dmoz.org/Science/Environment/Products_and_Services/Consultants/ and has been "almost published", it's just waiting for an approval from another editor. If you don't see it there in a month, you can ask again in this thread. The submission to the category you mention was removed, because of the above.
res17 Posted May 20, 2004 Author Posted May 20, 2004 Great, sounds like my site is near acceptance...However, I think our website may be in the wrong category. It should be in: Business/Electronics_and_Electrical/Instrumentation/Flow Would be greatful if you could let me know how long this will take. Many thanks Rob
sole Posted May 20, 2004 Posted May 20, 2004 It was listed in http://dmoz.org/Science/Environment/Products_and_Services/Consultants/ I don't edit in the area and I'm not sure which is the better category for your site. If you really think it would fit better in Business/Electronics_and_Electrical/Instrumentation/Flow you may use the update listing link on the http://dmoz.org/Science/Environment/Products_and_Services/Consultants/ page to request a change and it will be considered. I make no promises as to the result though. Be sure to give good reasons. Consider why the reviewing editors would have changed the category and explain why you think the first category is better.
res17 Posted June 1, 2004 Author Posted June 1, 2004 Site Submission status: http://www.rshydro.co.uk has there been any movement on the submission of this site to the following directory: http://editors.dmoz.org/Science/Env...es/Consultants/ OR http://dmoz.org/Business/Electronic...mentation/Flow/? As I understand it it is very close to acceptance and it should be listed under the second category Rob

res17 Posted June 9, 2004 Author Posted June 9, 2004 Can you tell me what has happened to our site?http://www.rshydro.co.uk as it has been quite a while now. Would be greatful if you could tell me anything.... Regards Rob
Editall/Catmv arubin Posted June 9, 2004 Editall/Catmv Posted June 9, 2004 It's less than a month -- and our new policy is to provide updates only every 6 months. Please ask again no earlier than November 16.
spectregunner Posted June 9, 2004 Posted June 9, 2004 While you were patiently waiting according to the rules, we went and changed the rules. (Don't you just hate it when that happens!) Follow-up status checks must now be spaced six months apart so as to give us more time to edit. This means that your next check should be on or after Noverber 20. I wish I could tell you that the rules won't change again while you are waiting -- but just as in life, the rules in teis forum are dynamic. :o Thanks for your understanding.
dogbows Posted June 9, 2004 Posted June 9, 2004 Read what Sole said! Res17, I think you need to re-read what Sole had to say. It appears that your site is listed, but not in the category that you preferred. Follow her instructions, if you really feel this is the wrong category.
res17 Posted June 10, 2004 Author Posted June 10, 2004 The problem is I can't find any such listing for our company: RS Hydro Ltd - www.rshydro.co.uk . Despite various comments from the editors, our company cannot be found in the dmoz directory. We appreciate your help and consideration and sorry to be such a pain. Any help would be greatful. Cheers Rob
dogbows Posted June 10, 2004 Posted June 10, 2004 Sorry! Still another category Apologies for all the confusion Rob. However, it seems that your site was indeed listed, but then moved to a more appropiate category. You will find your listing here. http://dmoz.org/Science/Environment/Environmental_Monitoring/Products_for_Sampling_and_Monitoring/
res17 Posted June 11, 2004 Author Posted June 11, 2004 Many thanks for that. Can you tell me why I can't find it in google or by searching for http://www.rshydro.co.uk. Do I need a G IBL update before I can find it? Once again, many thanks... Rob
Meta hutcheson Posted June 11, 2004 Meta Posted June 11, 2004 Basically, no, we can't. But my guess would be similar to yours.
