Hello, It's been a little over 2 weeks, so I just thought I'd post and see if there are any updates to my application. I've actually been trying to be an editor for quite some time and recently found this resource. I didn't realize before that I wasn't getting the email with the key back, so this was helpful. I reapplied and checked my spam folder and found your message. Here are the pertinent details: 1) Category I applied for: http://www.dmoz.org/Shopping/Antiques_and_Collectibles/Vehicles/Tractors/Parts/ 2) Editor Name was hilaritee I think, or LizLeigh. I remember that it gave me a hassle with one that was in use. Not sure which it ultimately accepted. 3…

Hello, I was an editor for DMOZ years back and family and heavy work loads at work forced me to ease back on my editor requirements at that time. I am at a point in my life where I have a great deal of time now to devote to performing the editor duties once again and am wishing that you please reinstate my status as an editor, as well as reinstate my login. My editor username was: Towknight. My email was (Removed) or (Removed). Both emails or no longer valid and I am using my current email of (Removed) If this is possible, please reinstate my Editor status and my login status. I believe I will be a valuable contributing editor for DMOZ once again. Thank You! Jess Horton. …

Hi, I applied to edit this category a few weeks ago: Business/Arts_and_Entertainment/Photography/Photographers/Portrait/Oceania I got knocked back, as stupid me didn't read the guidelines properly. So I am across them now, however when I went to apply again it told me it was disabled. Does this mean that category is now full? I have applied to a very similar category a few days ago, but was curious as to why applications at my original category were closed. Cheers Adam.

Hello Everybody, I'm sorry, my English is very bad. A long time ago, I filled out the form to DMOZ editor. but Turkey's editor is very slow. I waited too much for my DMOZ account. Now, I guess my account was accepted. but I forgot which email address I refer to. I've checked all my e-mail address but could not find confirmation e-mail of DMOZ I'm trying to login now. but DMOZ says "User needs an email address verification before the user can login." Could you help me? my account: bbasarir I refer the link: http://goo.gl/6EQ3uw Thank you very much in advance

I applied to become an editor with name of "smgilley1". I checked the box that said I had been a prior editor (about a decade ago), so my application was denied. I would like my old account reinstated. I do not remember my username, but think it may have been "smgilley". The recent application that was denied was for the category: Regional: North America: United States: Mississippi: Localities: O: Ocean Springs: Business and Economy The prior category was related to Mergers & Acquisitions, I think. Was about a decade ago.

Hey all, I was an editor around 2001-2006 (give or take!) and was lead on many categories, many of them in the formerly large Adult section of DMOZ. I do not recall my editing name or login (seems almost all of adult was removed so i can't find any categories i used to work in). I wish to reinstate because I enjoyed editing here as a hobby and working with a team to improve the open directory. Can anyone help me locate my old login? It would have probably been under <emails removed for your protection> as the account email addy. Is it possible it was deleted? Thanks much! Dave

Help, My account has been made inactive. I tried using the reinstatement form, but it keeps asking for the correct email associated with my account. I'm 100% sure that my email is: <email removed for your protection> I know this because I have many emails there from DMOZ, the most current one being February 27, 2014. Please reinstate my account. My account name is: marthacastano The last time I logged in, we probably around February 2014. I simply been busy and neglected my account at DMOZ. I would like to continue using it. Sincerely, Martha

I just got rejected as editor, and got a message telling that I'm already an editor: /// You indicated on your application form that you were previously an editor. The Open Directory Project allows just one editor account per person - no matter how long it's been since you were previously an editor. Please use the editor reinstatement form at http://www.dmoz.org/docs/en/reinstate.html to request that your previous account be reactivated. If you do not recall all the details about your previous account requested by this form, please visit the Resource Zone forum at http://www.resource-zone.com/forum/index.php?showforum=10 where meta editors will be able to help you. /…

Hey, I submitted a request for reinstatement for my editor account (in good standing). The account name is gtryan, and it lapsed due to no edits being made recently. Even though my queue to review was empty, I didn't realize that I'd get locked out if I didn't proactively add new sites over time. Going forward, I'll be a bit more proactive... I submitted the request for reinstatement a few weeks ago and haven't seen any action on the reinstatement request. Should I be expecting it to take longer, or is anyone able to take a look on my behalf? Thanks! I appreciate your time.

Dear Sir/Madam: I first applied for the editor position on: http://www.dmoz.org/Games/Video_Games/Game_Design/Development_Tools_and_Software/ under the username "eik" on Jun 11th. I immediately got an e-mail verification request. Then my app was rejected apparently because there was another former editor with the same "popular" name, "Eugene Kim." I was then asked to re-apply. So I did under the user name "dreik" for the same category. This time, however, (it's been at least 3 days), I did not get any e-mail verification request. I can tell the account "dreik" is indeed associated with my e-mail from clicking the "forgot password" link. Should I try ap…
