Guest superchargers Posted March 5, 2003 Posted March 5, 2003 Domain: http://www.superchargersonline.com I first submitted to http://dmoz.org/Business/Automotive/Parts_and_Accessories/Engine/ ...and then realized it was an inappropriate category because there is shopping on the site. I later submitted to: http://dmoz.org/Shopping/Sports/Motorsports/Auto_Racing/Parts_and_Accessories/ Thanks very much. -Jason
Meta icxcnika Posted March 5, 2003 Meta Posted March 5, 2003 I don't see it either place. And no sign it's been touched, either. I've put your site in for consideration in http://dmoz.org/Shopping/Vehicles/Parts_and_Accessories/Performance/ . Curlie volunteer meta editor icxcnika
Guest superchargers Posted March 5, 2003 Posted March 5, 2003 WOW! Thank you! That category would have been my #1 choice, except there was no "Add URL" link on there, which disappointed me. Thank you VERY much for submitting my site there. Regards, Jason
Meta icxcnika Posted March 5, 2003 Meta Posted March 5, 2003 Hmm. Found. You submitted to http://dmoz.org/Shopping/Vehicles/Parts_and_Accessories/Engine/ , which is probably the best category after all. The description for Performance says only sites that sell parts for multiple systems. Curlie volunteer meta editor icxcnika
Guest superchargers Posted March 5, 2003 Posted March 5, 2003 Both categories seem appropriate. I'm not sure what it means by "multiple systems" - we do sell supercharger systems and accessories for an array of automotive and marine applications. Please use your best judgment. So, it sounds as though the submission is in queue and will be reviewed in the following weeks or months. I guess that means that I have nothing to worry about. I'll check back in a month or two by replying to this post if I don't see it listed. Thanks once again!
Meta icxcnika Posted March 5, 2003 Meta Posted March 5, 2003 "Multiple systems" meaning more than one automotive system. E.g., performance parts for engine and suspension and drive train. The cooling system is included with the engine in the ODP categories, and I imagine the fuel line is too. So we'd have to squint pretty hard to say that a site specializing in supercharging systems was about more than one automotive system, even though it certainly is about performance. There are quite a lot of unreviewed in all of the categories mentioned in this thread. But your site is awaiting review in what is probably the best category for it, the Shopping category for Engines. Curlie volunteer meta editor icxcnika
Guest superchargers Posted April 8, 2003 Posted April 8, 2003 Hi, I was hoping to get an update on http://www.superchargersonline.com which was waiting for review in http://dmoz.org/Shopping/Vehicles/Parts_and_Accessories/Engine/ when 'icxcnika' checked on it a little over a month ago. Any info on its status or the likely time-til-review would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!!
Meta windharp Posted April 8, 2003 Meta Posted April 8, 2003 The category is slightly crowded with submissions, so I guess it will take a while till the site is reviewed. Btw: It's still waiting. Curlie Meta/kMeta Editor windharp
Guest superchargers Posted May 5, 2003 Posted May 5, 2003 Hi, I was hoping to get an update on http://www.superchargersonline.com which has been waiting for review for several months in http://dmoz.org/Shopping/Vehicles/Parts_and_Accessories/Engine/ Any updated info on its status or the likely time-til-review would be greatly appreciated. Thank you very much.
uzs980 Posted May 5, 2003 Posted May 5, 2003 It's still waiting for review and it's really hard to say how long it will still be. There are more than 200 sites waiting for review in that category; it could really need an editor with lots of time to spend on it. We don't know when this editor will come; it might be tomorrow, it might be much later. And when he comes, we still don't know how long you'll have to wait. He may decide to start with your site; or he may decide to review other sites first. I'm sorry not to have better news at this point. Yours, Robert

Does it look like there is even a reviewer for this category?? It's now been around 5 months since the site was submitted. Thank you very much.
Meta kokopeli Posted June 7, 2003 Meta Posted June 7, 2003 Sorry, no change at this time. Any updated info on its status or the likely time-til-review would be greatly appreciated. Does it look like there is even a reviewer for this category?? It's now been around 5 months since the site was submitted. Thank you very much. Unfortunately no time line can ever be given. I personally have a site that has been waiting in a health category for about three times as long as you have waited so far based on your date of submission, 05/Feb/2003--that is just part of how it works when editors are volunteer. All the sites are the same, it depends on interest in a category, number of sites waiting, the time an editor has to review, etc. No category is ever without an editor, metas and editalls can edit anywhere, as well as anyone higher up in the branch. I'm sorry I cannot give you a specific time line. The category you've submitted to is very backed up...so I imagine it will be awhile. My recommendation would be to wait three months and come back and inquire if you still don't see it. I'm sorry I don't have better news. <img src="/images/icons/frown.gif" alt="" />
