donwiebe Posted July 10, 2004 Posted July 10, 2004 The submission was reviewed and declined a listing at this time due to insufficient unique content.
popgroove Posted July 10, 2004 Author Posted July 10, 2004 Thanks for taking the time to review my site. I've noticed occasionally the editors do provide additonal commentary if a question is raised about the returned status, so If you could comment a bit further to help out a newbie with his first site it would be greatly appreciated. Specifically I don't understand "unique content" in relation to the topic I submitted to and the site I submitted. For instance: A quick look at this page http://www.automateexcel.com/topics.html shows 120 or so pages of content, which is more than some of the pages currently listed in this topic in the directory. Also, this site's information is definitely "unique" because it would be the only one in the directory which rss syndicates it's excel information along with providing some tips not found on the other sites. I was just dissapointed with the status returned, and thought for sure after reviewing the directory I submitted to and thought meeting the goals outlined here I would be accepted. (especially in relation to some of the sites currently listed there, 2 of which are dead links(at least this evening)) Any suggestions or constructive criticism are very welcomed. Once again, Thank You.
popgroove Posted January 9, 2005 Author Posted January 9, 2005 Status update 6 month request Hello DMOZ editors, I've patiently waited 6 months and now I'm inquiring again about the status of the site http://www.automateexcel.com that I submitted to the category http://dmoz.org/Computers/Software/Spreadsheets/Excel/ In the past 6 months I've tripled the content on the site to over 315 posts. Any news, reasons for non-inclusion, or advice? Thanks and Have a good day!
bobrat Posted January 9, 2005 Posted January 9, 2005 Still waiting for a proper review in that category, but an editor has noted the site now has enough content to spend the time reviewing it.
popgroove Posted January 9, 2005 Author Posted January 9, 2005 Thanks BobRat I'll check back in another 6 months if still no inclusion. Thanks for the update BobRat.
