Re: Business/Publishing_and_Printing/Publishing/Services/Free_Content (item #5001 but I'm not sure if the numbers are consistent on this forum)

I've have gone through (all) the listed sites and removed the ones which obviously weren't guideline compliant.

The test I used was "do they load" & "do they have articles which could be published" (logins are perhaps less important)

I agree that some of those left are on the lower limit of listability, another passing editor may well be more ruthless.

Definitely :)

 

People either shut their business down or don't bother to update their site, through a passage of time.

My strategy was to pick categories which did not have an Editor(s), and check the sites within it, via a new tab.

 

Out of the 40 categories i checked, surprisingly these were the only ones with a broken link or had some kind of problems, which is a huge plus. :D

I work at the Norwegian Broadcasting Corp.

 

The description of the TV-show at <url removed> contains the Norwegian word "fremmedkulturell". Which means something like "person of alien culture". This is a term considered as negative, and NRK does not wish to use that term.

 

Thank you,
