Guest 4outdoorfun Posted August 29, 2002 Posted August 29, 2002 Hi, I've submitted www.4outdoorfun.com a few times over the past 4 or 5 months to the category Shopping: Recreation: Outdoors which I think is the appropriate place since I sell camping and outdoor equipment. One time, just after I entered the submission my internet line dropped so I'm not sure if it was submitted. I think I've followed all the guidelines, yet I haven't been listed or heard from anyone. Can you please tell me what happened to the submission or if I should submit again. Thanks, Mike Scanlon
Meta jazz Posted August 29, 2002 Meta Posted August 29, 2002 First, it really helps if you provide a CLICKABLE link to the category in question. Second, your site hasn't been reviewed yet. Third, the unreviewed queue in the category is rather large, several hundred. I wouldn't expect the site to be reviewed any time soon. I'd guess a minimum of 4-6 months, more than likely more, unless someone takes a strong liking to editing the cat. [The category gets lots of spam submissions. I just deleted about a hundred spam submissions and barely put a dent in the cat.] Even with a listed editor, there is only so much you can do. We can always use help editing in cats like this. If you're interested, consider applying to edit a subcat (smaller cat, more likely to be approved). If you do apply, be sure to mention your affiliation.
Guest 4outdoorfun Posted August 29, 2002 Posted August 29, 2002 Thanks for the quick reply Jazz. I won't submit again then. I wasn't sure if it was just something I was doing wrong. By the way, I did apply for an editor in a subcategory, but was turned down. Regards,
Meta jazz Posted August 29, 2002 Meta Posted August 29, 2002 Not knowing why you were turned down... If you'd really like to help out.... Consider applying first to a Regional cat, like your hometown. Building up experience there before applying for other categories. Keep in mind though that I don't do editor application reviews/approvals...
