When I was browsing dmoz recently I saw a weird editing in a category, More than 100 sites have been removed and 10 new sites have been added, Those 10 new sites doesnt look worth to be listed there,
See this category,
http://dmoz.org/Shopping/Pets/Supplies/
Compare the 2 results,
http://dmoz.org/Shopping/Pets/Supplies/
http://directory.google.com/Top/Shopping/Pets/Supplies/
The above category is a very important category in dmoz and 1000s are sites are competiting to get a listing there, So what is happening anyone can guess, weird :confused:
Edit reason - Got an answer from Resource-zone.com
Answer from meta:
If a category gets a lot of listings we can decide to split it into smaller parts. As has been done here. Compare the 2 results given by you and now look at all the subcategories.
