Why does this subcategory exist?

 

Category: /Regional/North_America/United_States/Wisconsin/Localities/A/Algoma,_Town_of/

Comments: We have this /Regional/North_America/United_States/Wisconsin/Localities/A/Algoma/ subcategory in the very same /Regional/North_America/United_States/Wisconsin/Localities/A/ subcategory. This particular section has 13 listings. The subcategory in question has just one. Was this subcategory created to list this one site?

Inappropriate local subcategory

 

Category: /Regional/North_America/United_States/Wisconsin/Localities/A/Allenton/Business_and_Economy/

Website: Maysteel LLC

Comments: The home page very clearly states that the physical location of this entity is N89 W14700 Patrita Drive, Menomonee Falls WI 53052-1240. There is a subcategory for Menomonee Falls /Regional/North_America/United_States/Wisconsin/Localities/M/Menomonee_Falls/ with 48 listings. Isn’t this the proper home for this website?

Different urls, same website, same name, same subcategory

 

Categorey: /Regional/North_America/United_States/Wisconsin/Localities/A/Appleton/Business_and_Economy/Automotive/

Websites: Les Stumpf Ford and Les Stumpf Ford

Comments: The urls point to different sections of the same website. I understand that deep linking is acceptable and permitted in ODP, but this is, in my opinion, is stretching the definition of “unique content” to the point of irrelevance.

#1651 was dealt with by another editor.

#1653 now dealt with, thanks.

#1654 dealt with, thanks.

 

Note that businesses can move. Sometimes they let us know, sometimes not.

#1652 - this is confusing for someone on the other side of the globe, like me, but I believe that these are two different places:

 

The Town of Algoma, with a population of 6034, is located along Highways 41 and 21, adjacent to the City of Oshkosh's west side.

 

Algoma (which calls itself a city) has a population of 3357. It is located 30 miles east of Green Bay on Highways 54 & 42.

#1655 - the site was listed long ago, when there was probably little else for the locale. Thanks for pointing out that it doesn't meet our present standards.

 

#1656 dealt with, thanks.

I live in Wisconsin. I should have done the research before I submitted the message. I apologize for wasting your time on this.

#1657 dealt with, thanks.

 

#1658 - not a deep link problem, but thanks for pointing it out. In fact it is a case of fraternal sites, which has been dealt with.

 

#1659 dealt with, thanks.

Thanks. I had spotted it myself when looking for something (I'm in Bristol), but I forgot to fix the urls in the ODP. I'll get on to it.

 

[Added] Those are fixed and the other listings from that site.
