#2172 Looks like this was dealt with by another editor.

Sorry, I did not know we could provide direct links to the edit page.

Don't worry. Ishtar knows how to do this, as a former editor, and is being extra helpful. As I don't have editing access to Kids and Teens, someone else will get the benefit.

There is a double listing

 

Hello Again,

As I keep checking once a month and I see that the index in change, hopefully I will be included soon ;) , I wanted to point out a duplicate entry in category

 

http://www.dmoz.com/Regional/Europe/Spain/Autonomous_Communities/Catalonia/Barcelona/Barcelona_City/Travel_and_Tourism/

 

there is a listing for Barcelona Online - http://www.barcelona-on-line.es/eng/index.asp which is actual the same company, same website as category

 

http://www.dmoz.com/Regional/Europe/Spain/Autonomous_Communities/Catalonia/Barcelona/Barcelona_City/Travel_and_Tourism/Lodging/

 

Barcelona On Line apartments - http://www.barcelona-on-line.com/

 

Is this allowed or is it considered Spam?

Redirects, links in wrong categories and broken links - Japanese Motorcycle Parts

 

Hello - here's a few problems within the following category:

 

http://dmoz.com/Shopping/Vehicles/Motorcycles/Parts_and_Accessories/Japanese/

 

Yourmotorcycleshop - broken link

http://www.yourmotorcycleshop.com/

 

MC Land - Norwegian site - shouldn't this be under a different language section?

http://www.mc-land.no/

 

Wemoto - seems to be in the wrong category - does more than Japanese parts

http://www.wemoto.com/

 

Thanks, Jeff

#2191 dealt with, thanks.

 

Yourmotorcycleshop works for me.

Wemoto could have a listing in Regional also (for its bricks and mortar showroom), but seems OK where it is for the online store.

#2193 dealt with, thanks.

 

The edit links worked fine, except for:

 

Final Fantasy VII, where the problem was that you gave the url that the listed one redirects to. (i.e. the page saying account frozen).

 

SquareSoft FF9 Online Strategy, where you linked to the wrong category. It is listed under Final Fantasy IX.

 

Not to worry, as I have fixed both listings anyway.

The Legend of Monkey Island [EDIT]

double listing / Website is already present in parent category; considering the website covers the whole Monkey Island series like many other similar websites in the parent category, there is probably no reason for it to be listed also in this subcategory

Games Domain: Sam & Max Hit the Road [EDIT]

404 / hijack / Gamesdomain.co.uk was acquired by Yahoo UK; anyhow, most old links to Gamesdomain.co.uk in the directory will most likely not work, since content has been removed or has changed. In any case, the url below is the best link to get official patches for the game. While I am not editor, a good title for the link would be "Sam And Max Hit The Road Downloads" and a good description would be "Official updates from game publisher LucasArts". I sent a suggestion in the category, in any case.

New url: http://support.lucasarts.com/patches/sam.htm

 

Sam and Max Hit the Road Demo [EDIT]

inappropriate content / Demo cannot be found anymore in this website; the link below is another good source to get it. Also, I remember this demo, and in the description it should be noted that it is non-interactive - ex. "Downloadable non-interactive game demo"

New url: http://www.gamershell.com/download_4684.shtml
