It's been 3+ weeks since I applied to be an editor in a category that has no editor and that I'm more than qualified to edit. I haven't heard a word. It's a small category relating to picnic recipes and I know I did a good job on the examples so....What the heck?? Nothing, not even an acknowledgement that I applied. I thought DMOZ needs editors Is this right? Is there someone, somewhere I can contact to check the status? Should I re-apply? Should I just forget it? Is there a means of checking on my status?
Since is has been more than two weeks - you can ask about the status at Resource Zone. Be sure to read the sticky at the top of the forum before posting. Provide the date you applied, your editor name, and a clickable link to the category.
After the application is submitted, you should get a confirmation email that you need to reply to. If you didn't get this email, the application didn't go through.
Thanks for the info Imocr & ishfish. I remember now receiving a confirmation email and I'll pop over to resource zone to check on the app.
