Hi!

 

While searching:

 

http://www.dmoz.org/Regional/North_America/United_States/Minnesota/Regions/Twin_Cities/Business_and_Economy/Restaurants_and_Bars/

 

I encountered an issue I wanted to bring to your attention:

 

Format Changed. Site has morphed from a restaurant directory into a generic directory.

 

- Directory of restaurants south of the river. By city, or by cuisine.

 

Dec 2007 Wayback
. Last time site was still a restaurant directory.

Thanks for all the reports!

 

Items #4238 - 4298 done, except for the following:

- item #4250 - a new site will be launched shortly, according to the site.

- item #4252 - posted in the Swedish language section asking for a Swedish speaker to see if http://www.mobyson.se/ (the URL it redirects to) is listable instead.

- item #4253 - redirects to http://www.interbirim.com/ and I asked a Turkish speaking editor to have a look if that site is listable instead.

- item #4275 - what's exactly the problem? Page loads fine. I am willing to ask an Italian speaking editor to look at it, but I don't know what exactly to ask.

- item #4297 - URL works fine for me. What exactly is the problem for you, or does the page load fine for you, too, right now?

Re #4306 Christoffel

 

Hi!

 

- item #4297 - URL works fine for me. What exactly is the problem for you, or does the page load fine for you, too, right now?

 

Actually, I'm not sure how I let that one through. Originally it was dead so, I placed it on my dead list to revisit in a few days. I do remember re-checking it and it worked. Somehow, it slipped in when I was going through my list reporting all the other dead links.

 

Sorry about that.
