    Hi, My site <URL removed> was listed in this category http://www.dmoz.org/...ient_Education/ in 2002 or 2003. I noticed in 2010 that it had been removed and re-submitted at that time. I understand that I should not re-submit again as this doesn't help my site get listed any faster.

    Is it possible for someone to look up why my site was removed? I understand it should only have been removed if the site was down (has never happened for more than a few hours) or if it no longer fits Site Selection Guidelines. I've re-read them and don't see how it doesn't comply.

    Any input would be greatly appreciated!

    Sorry. But that is not something we can do.
    With the millions of sites being listed, millions being waiting review and even more being rejected or removed duren all those years of DMOZ existence it would just put to much time on the editors. I hope you understand.

    Absolutely. I know that DMOZ is run by volunteers, so it makes sense.
    Thanks for the fast response!
