Hi!

 

While searching:

 

http://www.dmoz.org/Regional/North_America/United_States/North_Dakota/Localities/B/Binford/

 

I encountered the following issue I wanted to bring to your attention:

 

URL Changed. CNN changed the deeplink to the Binford, ND weatherpage. It just does a 404 to the Atlanta,GA page. I provided a new deeplink below.

 

CNN.com - Weather - Binford - 5 day local weather forecast.

 

Correct URL:

Hi!

 

While searching:

 

http://www.dmoz.org/Regional/North_America/United_States/North_Dakota/Localities/B/Bismarck/

 

I encountered the following issue I wanted to bring to your attention:

 

Incorrect Category. Category is Bismarck, ND but all the landing page does is show a list of search results for "Bismarck". Noting specific to Bismarck, ND is in the title link and after going ten pages deep in the search results, there was not one link I thought appropriate for Bismarck, ND as described in the entry description.

 

- A news, shopping, and community guide.
