    Dmoz Editors Suspects Abuses

    Un saluto a tutta la comunità.

    Abbiamo constatato come le comunicazioni allo Staff inglese di Dmoz siano prese in considerazione, mentre nel ramo Italiano si respira un'area di chiusura.

    Per questo motivo abbiamo deciso che ogni mese, tutte le segnalazioni sufficientemente documentate che arriveranno sul Forum GT, saranno riportate qui, trasformate in un dossier/pdf in lingua inglese ed inviate allo Staff di Aol direttamente.

    GiorgioWe report here the notes wrote by the ForumGT users related to Editor suspects abuses with the purpose to better allow to the** Dmoz Admins** visiting this area to easily be able to check and consider them, and in case of confirmed abuse to carry on proceedings.

    Al fine di consentire agli Admin di Dmoz di poterli meglio valutare, e nel caso intervenire, raccogliamo in questo topic i rapporti degli utenti del ForumGT relativi a sospetti abusi di editor.

    • Inserire sito in Dmoz più volte [Ludymilla and Gio] Forum users report case of the site comuni-italiani.it and its 960 deeplink insert in the Directory. They consider just spam that pages and offering to the Dmoz users just Google commercial advices only. Also, because that deeplinks are allowed in the Directory by the Top Level Italian Editors, they consider them as partners of the abuse: albovicamp, fiamma, mauri, marco5x, marcovolpe, weppos, vitocal, ghisolabella, geromarsala, edodpba, snail, bigmarlin, brag, massy, gatta, ianillo, samuele, offdesign, lithops, massy, azzurro.
    • Proposta d'inserimento sito molto commerciale in zona speciale [Fabysnet and Maricalina] the ForumGT users consider an abuse the presence of 10 turistic web site in this Dmoz page; http://dmoz.org/World/Italiano/Regionale/ . Also they note that after the first complains made by Dmoz users appeared on many forum starting from more than one years ago, the World/italiano Meta instead remove that web site they has changed the ODP Template, deleting the advice "# Find the appropriate sub-category DO NOT submit sites in the top level category of Regional:Europe and expect it to be moved to the correct category #".
    • **Vendita template per Editor Dmoz **[jamweb] the GTuser report a copy of a message sent to him by the Dmoz Editor *scilla *suggesting his "god working" form to become an Editor. In the copy it is possible to read the presumed scilla Editor Required pubblished by him to someone or somewhere. With just a simple check could be possible for some Admin or Meta understand if it is the original one sent by scilla asking editor privilege for /Bibiena [and than confirming the abuse] or something else false.
    • **Inserire sito dmoz piu volte **[Alibi74] the GT moderator consider an abuse the presence in the directory (http://search.dmoz.org/cgi-bin/search?search=esperia.it&all=yes&cs=UTF-8&cat=World%2FItaliano) of about 200 deeplink of the web site esperia.it.
    • Editori Dmoz; nomine lampo in cambio di cosa? [Jamweb] The user consider an abuse the presence of the Metaeditor Geromarsala and the editor massy in this forum about to take advantage of their position in Dmoz to carry on business, as the nomination of editors in real time in the forum (pieru - catone); they push their business partners to send the Dmoz Editor Required Form and inform them on the forum of the done nomination just in few minutes. Jamweb question is; 'in exchange for what?'
    • Cancellazione proposta di sito valido [Andrez] It is possible for Admins to see that on November 2005 the editor azzurro has canceled a valid web site suggestion [this forumGT] without any reason. In that Category it's present a forum web site belong to the same editor azzurro.

    Edit:
    A distanza di oltre un anno, possiamo prendere atto che in nessuno dei 6 casi esposti, dei quali è stata inviata ampia documentazione probatoria, è stato preso alcun provvedimento.
