Guest exp1 Posted March 9, 2003 Posted March 9, 2003 Can you please tell me the status of http://www.ExecutiveParent.com/? I submitted on Jan 12, 2003 to the following category: http://dmoz.org/Home/Family/Parenting/Resources/ . Thanks!
beebware Posted March 9, 2003 Posted March 9, 2003 It's awaiting review in that category with between 100 and 150 other sites.
Guest exp1 Posted March 9, 2003 Posted March 9, 2003 Thanks for the quick reply. My take away is that I need to wait awhile more and to avoid resubmitting. Would you agree?
Guest exp1 Posted March 10, 2003 Posted March 10, 2003 Can you tell me my position in the queue of all the sites waiting for review?
lachenm Posted March 10, 2003 Posted March 10, 2003 You are correct, you should not resubmit. It's in the queue, and resubmitting will not help. If you do, you will likely overwrite your old submission, which would just have the effect of moving you down the page if an editor sorts the queue by date. "Position in the queue" is a largely meaningless concept in the ODP. The queue may be sorted in several ways, giving vastly different orders -- this is a matter of editor's personal choice. Moreover, editors may edit sites in any order (they don't have to follow the order on their screen). As a result, there is no way to predict when your site (or any other) will be reviewed. The best we can tell you is that the site is in the queue, so it will be reviewed when an editor with knowledge of the category has time to do so. Please feel free to check again by posting to this thread in a month.
