In the category:

http://dmoz.org/Business/Marketing_and_Advertising/Advertising/Design_Services/Logo_and_Stationery/

 

The site: http://www.ovations.ca/ is a 'domain parking page'

 

The site: http://www.perfect-circle.freeuk.com/ has nothing to do with stationery or logo design (wrong category?)

 

Logo Office (http://www.logooffice.com/contact.asp) Logo Solutions (http://www.logosolution.co.uk/contact.asp) are the same company operating two 'fraternal' sites.

1726 done :)

NB:

Perfect circle does seem to do stationery design - http://www.perfect-circle.freeuk.com/services.html

 

Yes, I did see that. However, isn't the category http://dmoz.org/Business/Marketing_and_Advertising/Advertising/Design_Services/Logo_and_Stationery/ a sub-category of 'design services' for sites that 'specialize' in logo and/or stationery aspects of design? Stationery design is merely listed on that page as part of an 'all in' menu of typical design services.

Hello

 

we have a site listed in DMOZ 4 different categories.

1 month ago we purchased new domain and move all content to this new domain. on old domain we put 301 redirect, so all old links from first domain are redirected to right url-s on the second domain (links from DMOZ dir too).

 

i understand, that as we have permanet redirect, all our links from old domain are working, but i think, that it will be nice, if in dmoz dir will be listed new domain, instead of old one.

 

can u advise, what i must do?

find all categories, where are listed links to my domain and contact moderators ? or i can put here links to this categories and site urls (i don't going to change any description)?

 

thank you very much

Dead links report + further details of abuse

 

Hi,

 

In http://www.dmoz.org/World/Catal%c3%a0/Regional/Catalunya/Barcelona/Barcelon%c3%a8s/Barcelona/Arts_i_cultura/Teatre/Teatres_i_sales/ there are two pages that redirect to another URL and haven't been working for ages:

http://www.teatral.net/villarroel/

http://www.teatral.net/tivoli

 

Moreover, in the same category there are 4 links to this domain (teatral.net), besides being already listed in the category where it should belong http://dmoz.org/World/Catal%c3%a0/Arts_i_cultura/Arts_esc%c3%a8niques/Teatre/Mitjans_de_comunicaci%c3%b3/

(the editor seems to be extremely active for some things but not willing to fix this clear case of abuse).

 

thanks in advance

From the foot of the public category page, the category has not been updated since 5 August 2004 and it and the other mentioned have no named editors.

 

If you have evidence that this is a clear case of abuse, please fill in an abuse report and it will be investigated.

 

Thank you.
