Uncle Mozzie Wants You!
In "Recruitin' the Locals," Citysites takes his country boy logic and passion for the ODP to small communities to recruit new editors for Localities. Read about how small communities can benefit from using the ODP as a repository for their links, and how we can benefit from their participation.

Editor Removal Explained
For some folks, mystery and intrigue have surrounded the seemingly sudden removal of editors from the community. Others may be walking on egg shells for fear that their permissions will be yanked from underneath them. Meta editor Arlarson has prepared a "must read" explanation of the guidelines and standards for removal, and what it takes to get your permissions revoked.
