Dead Link Needs to be changed. Previous submits have been ignored = no action!

 

Dear DEMOZ

 

The following., which I found in a Google search = [ ZMMquality ], has a link that goes to the wrong place. GO TO HERE AND YOU WILL SEE IT http://www.google.com/Top/Arts/Literature/Authors/P/Pirsig,_Robert_M./

 

There it has the follwwing entry =

 

ZMMQuality.Org - http://www.zmmquality.org

Teaching, learning, and exploration of the book "Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance", and information on places and people mentioned in the book.

 

 

The Link needs to be changed to the following new information and correct link =

 

ZMM Quality - http://ww2.usca.edu/ResearchProjects/ProfessorGurr/

Exploration of book "Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance". Information on places and people mentioned in the book. Has 12 color photos taken on Robert Pirsig's very own camera!

 

***************************************

 

As I understand it, the whole Google Directory comes from the DEMOZ Directory.

 

Google Directory shows the above as being in

Society > Religion and Spirituality > Buddhism > Lineages > Zen

 

So this should also be in DEMOZ, but I can't find it.

 

As the web master for the above WebSite, I hope the above can be corrected for the benefit of the Open Directory Users.

 

SIDE NOTE, My WebPage above is correctly listed the last item at

http://dmoz.org/Arts/Literature/Authors/P/Pirsig,_Robert_M./

 

 

Henry Gurr

Professor of Physics Emeritus

University of South Carolina Aiken

471 University Parkway

Aiken South Carolina 29801

803 643 6823 (14 rings will get a secretary)

The above is an update request - please navigate to the listing in the directory at http://www.dmoz.org and make the request there using the "update listing" link.

 

Thank you.

 

 

Added - ok reading this again (and again). It looks like the listing update in the ODP has occurred. Google directory updates their information irregularly. What has been changed in the ODP will not be reflected in the Google directory until Google updates their directory. We have no control over when that may happen.

As you can see, there is a fair bit of repitition here, a lot of it, understandably is for regional offices, but surely there should be a single company listed, not 3 different ones, often referring to each other?

 

Your thoughts please....

Re item2915

The site works as do internal links for me in IE6 and FF. The broken images are a minor annoyance, but do not make the site unusable, just unproffessional looking. Since looks are not a criteria for listing I don't see a problem with it being listed.

 

The owner might appreciate someone letting them know if you feel like being kind..

Regional/Europe/Greece/Prefectures/Halkidiki/Travel_and_Tourism/Lodging/

 

Halkidiki Hotels - Provides information on hotels and accommodation in Halkidiki. With extensive search options:

 

It doesnt provide information on hotels and accommodation at all. Most of the links are pointing to the homepage and when registered you find out that you are the only one who registered. They never update it and I wonder if this site is used by somebody. The only thing is that it shows up in the top of search engines and visitors than will find out it offers them nothing.

 

The second link (Camping guide) also doesnt work.

 

I wonder your opinion.

 

Kind regards

Re 2923

 

Removed second link.

 

The first link contains information on hundreds of hotels - including links to their websites. My first search was for hotels within 500m of the beach (there were 310). My second was for hotels within 500m of the beach and 75km of Thessaloniki (there were 10). I was able to get phone numbers, addresses, facility information, rates, and web addresses for the hotels.

i posted #2891 to #2895 for various reasons, wrong category, dead link, and redirected, I think nobody look into that.

Although I applied to become editor in that category, I will have to wait, and the outcome may or may not be an approval, so will an editor look into my reports please? before it's buried.

Thanks.

 

cheers!
