DMOZ editor grammar

Discussion in 'ODP / DMOZ' started by seo-ireland, Jun 10, 2005.

    When I search Google for my site it sometimes uses the DMOZ description as the description. Except the description sounds like it was written by Manuel from Fawlty Towers.

    "Discussion forums on a several gardening topics, as well as a few home improvement topics."

    Spot it? Small I know but it still reflects badly. :mad:

    This is one of those cases where emailing the editor might actually get it fixed. The grammer mistake is pretty glaring.

    Thanks for the heads-up. It has been fixed. It may take a while for it to appear on the public-side cached pages, though.

    For the reference of anyone else reading this - it is hit-or-miss whether editors will read fora like this one. The quickest way to get a change requested is to click on the "Change Listing" link at the top right of a category where your site is listed. Update requests tend to get much higher priority in most editor's minds, and get processed, especially if they are for dead sites, spelling and/or grammatical errors in listings.
