I think what Alucard is suggesting is that you resubmit one more time to the same category

 

Will they look at this as a duplicate submission? Or will it bump me down in the 'queue'? Or if I put a note in the description they'll understand why I 're-submitted' and not look down upon it?

 

Thanks again for the ideas!

It should overwrite the previous one.

There is no "queue" - it might get "moved down", if the editor sorts by submission date, and reviews in tha order of that list (which is one of the options) slow it down, yes, but the alternative is that the password-protected area of the site can't be reviewed, and the site may get denied. Your choice.

 

Resubmissions of the same URL to the same category aren't "looked down on", since they overwrite a previous one and cause an editor no extra work. They are just usually counter-productive on everyone's part - in this special case, though it would be productive.

 

Either put the username and pass in the description (which will obviously be removed before the site is listed), or provide an email address in the description where an editor can write to you to get the username and password - the first might be quicker for a review, and the second might be mroe appropriate if you have more stringent security concerns. I have seen both done in various areas of the directory.

 

Hope this helps.

Hi. Can somebody check to see if I resubmitted correctly? I included a note with the logon/password info and just want to make sure it went through ok. I had to try about 5 times b/c it kept telling me the description was too long. I had to shrink it a lot so my explanation about including the password is very brief.

 

As a reminder it is for http://www.italycharms.com which was submitted here: http://dmoz.org/Business/Consumer_Goods_and_Services/Jewelry/Fashion/Wholesale_and_Distribution/

 

Thanks!!

Is it too soon to ask for an update? And can someone confirm if my instructions about the password are included with my submission? I'd hate to wait all this time only to find out that they can't access the password portion of the site.

 

Thanks very much!

Hi. Just wondering if I could get another update.

 

Also, is this a 'highly-reviewed' category? I know you can't give me any specifics on when I may be reviewed/added/declined..., but I did first submit this site on 6/27/03, almost a year ago, and then had to resubmit a few months ago after initially being declined. Are you able to perhaps indicate to me if there are dozens vs. hundreds of submissions and if there is a specific editor for this category or if it's just a general editor?

 

Thanks again!

You were given a status check on May 1, you are next eligible on or after November 1

 

Sorry about that, bad math day. I calculated October 1, but you are correct and it's November 1...

Hi again. I also just wanted to make sure you are aware of this thread: http://resource-zone.com/forum/showthread.php?p=123402#post123402

 

and to see if you have any input or can perhaps try to get to http://www.italycharms.com reviewd as soon as possible (I know that probably won't happen). But they removed my other site b/c of this submission, which was actually submitted before the other one, so now I have no sites listed. Ugh, what a mess... :(

 

Thanks again for any help,

You are right. Postings made at RZ will have totaly no influence on the time needed for a review.

I will not answer PM or emails send to me. If you have anything to ask please use the forum.

Hi. Can I get a new status check please?

 

Thank you very much!

Thanks for the update. Can I ask why my other site, referenced here: http://resource-zone.com/forum/showthread.php?p=123402#post123402, was added (then removed) so quickly, while this site has been in the queue for quite a while and hasn't been reviewed? And related to that question, I never received an answer (in the other post) as to why the other site had its listing removed, even though this site was never reviewed. They said I couldn't submit 2 sites so they removed the other one, but that leaves me with no listings. I could see if they reviewed and added this site, and then removed the other since I couldn't have 2 listings, but to remove a listed site simply b/c I have another site in the queue doesn't make sense to me. So I'm definately still a bit confused, especially since the 2 sites aren't really that related (one being wholesale and one being retail).

 

Thanks again and sorry if I'm crossing posts too much with my question...

 

Regards,

Sorry about that. I forgot that it changed from 3 months to 6 months.

 

I'll check back in May.

Hi. I think it's now been 6 months since my last update (November 1, 2004) so I was hoping to check the status on my site.

 

Thanks!

I see no change in status in your suggestion since the last status report. Sorry not to have better news. :(

 

You may ask again in 6 months.
