Guest Geoffs_Cape Posted January 20, 2003 Posted January 20, 2003 Hello, I submitted www.ben-jesson.co.uk/ to: http://dmoz.org/Arts/Illustration/Illustrator_Portfolios/J/ on Dec 3rd 2002 Just wondering on it's status... Cheers
dfy Posted January 20, 2003 Posted January 20, 2003 It's there, in a very small queue waiting for someone with the necessary knowledge to come and review it.
Guest Geoffs_Cape Posted January 20, 2003 Posted January 20, 2003 Thanks for the quick response DFY, I'll sit'n'wait.
Guest Geoffs_Cape Posted February 3, 2003 Posted February 3, 2003 At the bottom of the category page it says: Last update: 13:54 PT, Friday, January 31, 2003 As I'm not there, does this mean that I have not been included/rejected? Thanks,
uzs980 Posted February 3, 2003 Posted February 3, 2003 Don't worry. Your site is still in the queue waiting for review.
Guest Geoffs_Cape Posted February 3, 2003 Posted February 3, 2003 Thanks uzs980. Ive noticed there is not an editor for this category - what happens in this situation?
uzs980 Posted February 3, 2003 Posted February 3, 2003 If a category hasn't got its own listed editor, it is usually looked after by an editor in one of the parent categories. So if Arts: Illustration: Illustrator Portfolios: J doesn't have an editor, it's up to the editor of Arts: Illustration: Illustrator Portfolios. Well, that category hasn't got a listed editor? Then let's look for the editor of Arts: Illustration. Gosh, that one hasn't got one, too? So the glorious Arts editors will look after it - but probably only occasionally and with delays, because they cover a large portion of the directory. There are also about 250 editors who are allowed to edit in all categories they feel they have enough knowledge of. Of course it would always better to have a dedicated editor for each nice small letter category ...
Guest Geoffs_Cape Posted February 3, 2003 Posted February 3, 2003 Thanks a lot for your time uzs980. I'm suprised that there's a shortage of editors within the Arts catagories. Looks like I'll be sitting this one out for a while. Thanks again.
beebware Posted February 3, 2003 Posted February 3, 2003 There's a shortage of editors everywhere. We currently have around 4million sites in the ODP and no where enough editors... Have you considered volunteering at all?
Guest Geoffs_Cape Posted March 17, 2003 Posted March 17, 2003 Hello, Could someone give me a status update please. Beebware: I would be interested in editing a small category like this. I'm quite busy at the moment but I may apply in a couple of months. Cheers

Guest Geoffs_Cape Posted March 20, 2003 Posted March 20, 2003 Thanks for your time Windharp. If in the future I applied to edit this category, would it be appropriate to suggest this site in my application?
Meta windharp Posted March 20, 2003 Meta Posted March 20, 2003 Of course you can, as long as its not listed this would not count against you. But of course you may give another site instead of it. If you are giving your own site as an example you should consider giving another two sites you are not affiliated with. Dont forget to mention your affiliations when applying to be an editor (those fields are there by purpose ;-) ) Curlie Meta/kMeta Editor windharp

Guest Geoffs_Cape Posted August 18, 2003 Posted August 18, 2003 Hello, Could someone let me know the status of the above site please. Thanks.
jimnoble Posted August 18, 2003 Posted August 18, 2003 It's still in the small pile of unreviewed sites. I can only advise patience.
Guest Geoffs_Cape Posted August 18, 2003 Posted August 18, 2003 Thanks for your time Jim, I'll come back in a month or two
Guest Geoffs_Cape Posted October 13, 2003 Posted October 13, 2003 Hello, Could someone give me an update on the status of my site please? I've noticed at the bottom of the category it say's... Last update: 19:22 PT, Saturday, August 23, 2003 Does that mean that my site has been rejected? Thanks,
uzs980 Posted October 14, 2003 Posted October 14, 2003 A new date on bottom of the category page doesn't mean that all submissions were processed. It just means that something was changed. In this case, a site (unfortunately not yours) was added on August 23rd. Your submission is still waiting for review. Yours, Robert
