In 1998, Rich Skrenta said, "I took a long list of groups and hand-edited them into a hierarchy."<sup id="cite_ref-21" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-21"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>21<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> For example, the topic covered by the comp.ai.alife newsgroup was represented by the category Computers/AI/Artificial_Life. The original divisions were for <i>Adult</i>, <i>Arts</i>, <i>Business</i>, <i>Computers</i>, <i>Games</i>, <i>Health</i>, <i>Home</i>, <i>News</i>, <i>Recreation</i>, <i>Reference</i>, <i>Regional</i>, <i>Science</i>, <i>Shopping</i>, <i>Society</i>, <i>Sports</i> and "World". While these sixteen <i>top-level</i> categories have remained intact, the ontology of second- and lower-level categories has undergone a gradual evolution; significant changes are initiated by discussion among editors and then implemented when consensus had been reached. </p><p>In July 1998, the directory became <a href="/wiki/Multilingualism" title="Multilingualism">multilingual</a> with the addition of the <i>World</i> top-level category. The remainder of the directory lists only English language sites. By May 2005, seventy-five languages were represented. The growth rate of the non-English components of the directory had been greater than the English component since 2002. While the English component of the directory held almost 75% of the sites in 2003, the <i>World</i> level grew to over 1.5 million sites as of May 2005, forming roughly one-third of the directory. The ontology in non-English categories generally mirrors that of the English directory, although exceptions which reflect language differences are quite common. </p><p>Several of the top-level categories have unique characteristics. The <i>Adult</i> category is not present on the directory homepage but it is fully available in the RDF dump that DMOZ provides. While the bulk of the directory is categorized primarily by topic, the Regional category is categorized primarily by region. This has led many to view DMOZ as two parallel directories: <i>Regional</i> and <i>Topical</i>. </p><p>On November 14, 2000, a special directory within DMOZ was created for people under 18 years of age.<sup id="cite_ref-22" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-22"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>22<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> Key factors distinguishing this "Kids and Teens" area from the main directory are: </p> <ul><li>stricter guidelines which limit the listing of sites to those which are targeted or "appropriate" for people under 18 years of age;<sup id="cite_ref-23" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-23"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>23<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup></li> <li>category names as well as site descriptions use vocabulary which is "<a href="/wiki/Age_appropriate" class="mw-redirect" title="Age appropriate">age appropriate</a>";</li> <li><i>age tags</i> on each listing distinguish content appropriate for kids (age 12 and under), teens (13 to 15 years old) and mature teens (16 to 18 years old);</li> <li>Kids and Teens content is available as a separate RDF dump;</li> <li>editing permissions are such that the community is parallel to that of DMOZ.</li></ul> <p>By May 2005, this portion of DMOZ included over 32,000 site listings. </p><p>From early 2004, the whole site was in <a href="/wiki/UTF-8" title="UTF-8">UTF-8</a> encoding. Prior to this, the encoding had been <a href="/wiki/ISO_8859-1" class="mw-redirect" title="ISO 8859-1">ISO 8859-1</a> for English language categories and a language-dependent character set for other languages.

While some editors focused on the addition of new listings, others focused on maintaining the existing listings, and some did both. This included tasks such as the editing of individual listings to correct spelling and/or grammatical errors, as well as monitoring the status of linked sites. Still others went through site submissions to remove spam and duplicate submissions. </p><p>Robozilla was a <a href="/wiki/Web_crawler" title="Web crawler">Web crawler</a> written to check the status of all sites listed in DMOZ. Periodically, Robozilla would flag sites which appeared to have moved or disappeared and editors follow up to check the sites and take action. This process was critical for the directory in striving to achieve one of its founding goals: to reduce the <a href="/wiki/Link_rot" title="Link rot">link rot</a> in web directories. Shortly after each run, the sites marked with errors were automatically moved to the unreviewed queue where editors may investigate them when time permits. </p><p>Due to the popularity of DMOZ and its resulting impact on <a href="/wiki/Web_search_engine" class="mw-redirect" title="Web search engine">search engine</a> rankings (See <a href="/wiki/PageRank" title="PageRank">PageRank</a>), domains with lapsed registration that were listed on DMOZ attracted <a href="/wiki/Domain_hijacking" title="Domain hijacking">domain hijacking</a>, an issue that was addressed by regularly removing expired domains from the directory. </p><p>While corporate funding and staff for DMOZ diminished over time, volunteers created editing tools such as linkcheckers to supplement Robozilla, category crawlers, spellcheckers, search tools that directly sift a recent RDF dump, <a href="/wiki/Bookmarklet" title="Bookmarklet">bookmarklets</a> to help automate some editing functions, mozilla based add-ons,<sup id="cite_ref-24" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-24"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>24<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> and tools that helped work through unreviewed queues. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="License_and_requirements">License and requirements</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=DMOZ&amp;action=edit&amp;section=7" title="Edit section: License and requirements"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>DMOZ data was previously made available under the terms of the Open Directory License, which required a specific DMOZ attribution table on every Web page that uses the data. </p><p>The Open Directory License also included a requirement that users of the data continually check DMOZ site for updates and discontinue use and distribution of the data or works derived from the data once an update occurs.
