Site dropped from DMOZ - why?

[bluesnapper]

Hi

 

Our website was submitted and accepted by DMOZ about 6 or 7 years ago. I noticed recently that is has been dropped from the directory.

 

Apart from a short outage (3 days) while the site was being moved from Win to Linux hosting it's been up.

 

The site content has changed but it's general theme has not and all sub pages that are no longer used are on perm 301 re-direct.

 

Any ideas why a site such as this would be dropped after so long in the directory?

 

Thanks

Possibly one of our patrolling QC robots noticed that it was unavailable and moved it to a pool of websites awaiting human evaluation. Such websites are prominently marked and most editors will give them priority over new listing suggestions.

 

Or maybe an editor noticed the content change and decided that the website was no longer listable or would be better listed in a different category and moved it to there. In the latter case, it might be awaiting further human action at the destination.

 

You can check if a website is listed by using our search for domain.tld without any http or www prefixes (eg google.com). Search works from our most recent RDF data dump, which can be a week or two out of date, not the live directory.

 

No website is guaranteed a permanent listing here.
