It appears the application for new editors is currently not active. Is that correct? Looked around and landed on dead anchor links. I will definitely want to join? Has anyone got an idea of supposedly when the applications will re-open?

Hi there, I would like to know if reinstatements are still something out metas do, since DMOZ is closing. My editor account was auto-marked as inactive maybe because I didn't do much edits in the last few months. I submitted the request a few weeks ago and.. been patient. my editor acc. name is: robertgombos I was wondering if someone could look into this 'till March 14... somehow I wouldn't like to lose my editor status, especially if we're going to revive in some form the ODP idea. Thanks, Robert

I posted a thread about losing my log-in here and it says (You have insufficient privileges to reply here.) I think the email I was using on my editor account is an old one that I no longer have access to.

Hi guys, I've went through the process of reclaiming my editor account however the registered email address I used was a work address around 10 years ago. I am no longer with that company and do not have access to my email to confirm. Under such circumstance what are my options of reactivating my account?

I think I was inactivated because I didn't make an edit with-in the last 4 months. Filled out the reinstatement form but I believe my email @dmozed.org is fdw to an email address I haven't had in a while, tested it but never got the email, wondering if that could be the issue as well. added: just changed my email addy here and I'm sure what was listed here was what I was using at dmoz which is long gone.

Recently I started this post. I submitted a website to this category and noticed it hasn't been updated in a few months, so I was wondering if that was normal. After a reply from @mollybdenum I decided to go ahead and apply to become an editor for this category, for two reasons: 1) I know this industry inside and out and 2) there are only 3 sites listed, so I assume it would be a good place to start. Now, on to my question: on my editor application I was transparent and mentioned I have ties to the website I initially submitted. While that is not the category I applied to edit, are editors able to submit sites to different categories that they do not oversee? Is tha…

Hi, I'm having problem editing data that is shown for my web shop listed on DMOZ. I became a marketing manager but the past marketing manager forgot his user name and password when he submitted the site. His mail is not active anymore, so is there any way to edit the data for our account.

HI, I'm a long-time editor. I usually only login when I find good websites for my section - usually this is within the expiry period, but this time I've timed out (couldn't be by much I don't think!). I add websites pretty regularly. Now I find I can't remember my original email to reinstate my expired account - it may have changed over the years from different email providers - I'm really unsure. Are you able to help me? My section is Australiasia womens websites (I just found a good organisation to add for free legal help for Aussie mums). My login is singlemummy and I know my password, that is unchanged from my original commencement. Thanks for any help you can giv…

Hi -- I volunteered to be an editor for the Water Polo section when I noticed that <url deleted> was not listed. It has like 1500 pages devoted to every aspect of the sport, no advertising and a 100% unpaid staff of enthusiasts so there isn't really a real reason for them not to be included other than the lack of editors. I was rejected because the topic was too big. Even if I only did three sites a month, it would be better than missing out on the most important and relevant sites out there. Water Polo Planet has been online for years and years and there couldn't be a more qualified site for DMOZ. There is clearly a need for change in editor qualificatio…

Hi, I might have been an editor a few years ago - I certainly remember the application form - but am not so sure anymore, especially, as I can't find dmoz emails in my current email archive. However, given that I'm not supposed to have multiple editor names, I'm somehow stuck: I hesitate to re-apply from the start, and I don't remember the editor name to request a new passwort or request reactivation. What should I do? Regards I.Souvatzis

Hello. recently pointed out that the catalog in Hebrew for adults for a long time are no longer updated, and decided to offer my candidacy in the editing area. Then faced with difficulties: My first application was sent to the reviewed 23.06, was filled with a different language, and received a response from administrators and denial: The second application I posted 24.06 to 02.05. I did everything as in the first embodiment only in Hebrew, as I suggested to the administrator. But when it got a negative answer, and: please Tell me what I need to do as another account I do not have

Dear DMOZ Team I submitted a resource to this category: dmoz.org/Regional/Africa/Business_and_Economy/Agriculture/ and after seeing that it was being neglected, I volunteered to help with editing, however, I've not had any response or feedback. Email received and verified: "allow us to verify your Email Address by clicking on the below link etc. etc." Forgive the mini rant: Farmers in Africa can really do with more tools. A top level directory like Dmoz could really help with up-to-date charitable website listings (NOT listed) that are there to help struggling subsistence farmers. Thank you in advance for looking into this category, getting this category sorte…
