jerseyman Posted May 17, 2005 Posted May 17, 2005 I am enquiring for the first time about the status of my site submitted around August 19th of 2004. The site address is http://www.bigstick.ca and the category is: http://dmoz.org/Shopping/Sports/Hockey/Ice_and_Roller/Equipment/Jersey_Specialists Thanks.

jerseyman Posted May 19, 2005 Author Posted May 19, 2005 Duplicate Submission? http://www.bigstick.ca Hello compostannie, My site ( http://www.bigstick.ca ) was once listed in DMOZ in the category: http://dmoz.org/Shopping/Sports/Hockey/Ice_and_Roller/Equipment/Jersey_Specialists/ However, the link was dead as we had changed our web address. Since I was unaware we were even listed there, the link was never updated. When I finally discovered DMOZ and tried to change the URL using the "update listing" link, it came back saying "no such URL exists" (or something similar). In effect, the dead link was still listed but it would not allow me to update it. Not sure what to do, and not finding the answer in the FAQ's, I submitted it using the "submit URL". I realize now that was not the right method of correcting it. Please let me know the course of action I should take next. Thanks, Paul
Meta hutcheson Posted May 19, 2005 Meta Posted May 19, 2005 OK, bigstick.ca was NEVER listed in that category. The history of http://www.bigstick.on.ca fits what you describe -- added, and then removed when it didn't work. bigstick.ca has no history except as was mentioned. It is NOT waiting for review there (but presumably is SOMEWHERE.) I'd suggest the site again, and put in brackets at the end of the suggested description: [multiple submittals made. herewith abject apologies, complete with sackcloth and ashes. this is probably the right category] The AA and S&A are optional. If you do that, next time the editor goes mole-whacking, chances are better that the OTHER mole will get whacked.
jerseyman Posted May 19, 2005 Author Posted May 19, 2005 Re-submittal on May 19/2005 The site has been re-submitted in the manner you suggested. Thanks! http://www.bigstick.ca http://dmoz.org/Shopping/Sports/Hockey/Ice_and_Roller/Equipment/Jersey_Specialists/
