Vlads Posted November 24, 2014 Posted November 24, 2014 (edited) Hello, I used to be an editor 13 years ago, and my account got inactive after 4 months of non-editing (due to several personal issues). I would like to file a reinstatement request now using a standard reinstatement form (http://www.dmoz.org/docs/en/reinstate.html), but the form requires a password, which I don't remember, yet I can not use a password recall form since the old email on file no longer exists. Could someone advise me what to do now to get reinstated? My username was vlads, and I was editing this category: Top: Computers: Internet: E-mail: Electronic Postcards: Occasions which now is: Top: Computers: Internet: E-mail: E-greetings: Occasions Edited November 26, 2014 by Vlads
Vlads Posted November 26, 2014 Author Posted November 26, 2014 Fixed the category links (the old category link is taken from the web archive, and the new category link is from DMOZ).
RZ Admin Elper Posted November 29, 2014 RZ Admin Posted November 29, 2014 Not sure what happened here, I'm really sure I answered this thread... Reinstatement is a security issue and we won't reinstate your account on the limited info given Please contact me via http://www.dmoz.org/public/sendemail?editor=elper (Don't use any other method) with as much corroborative information as you can such as:- Approximate date joined Editor name (but not password) Real Name Original email address Joining category Additional categories gained Roughly how many edits done Approximate date of leaving and the circumstances Convince me that you are who you say you are and I can reset your email address of record to one that works today. This will make it possible for you to request a password reminder and complete a reinstatement request form.
