歡迎你參加DMOZ的編輯工作！

我想請你在編輯前先閲讀我們的編輯指引 http://editors.dmoz.org/guidelines/ （也有簡體中文版：http://editors.dmoz.org/World/Chinese_Simplified/guidelines/ )。如果你有任何疑問或想討論有關問題的話，請在World/Chinese_Traditional或New Editors 論壇提出。

由於在DMOZ的運作的關鍵是不同的編輯員的工作必須協調好，所以在做出重大改動前，你必須在論壇（World/Chinese_Traditional)中討論並取得共識。

如果你有任何疑問的話，請不妨跟我聯係。並祝

編安！

Editing in the ODP is a fun and interesting experience. Below are some pointers to help you get started.

********************
Getting Started 
********************

To log in, click on the "Editor Login" link in the upper right hand corner of the main Open Directory page at http://dmoz.org. 
Once you have successfully logged in, you will be at your Editor's Dashboard.

On the dashboard you will find a link to the ODP Directory Guidelines, which can also be found at http://dmoz.org/guidelines/.  
It is very important that you read these before you begin editing.  Your ability to follow these guidelines provides the basis for granting 
you additional categories, and for determining your ongoing participation in the project. The guidelines address issues such as editing and 
category basics, spamming, communication, conflict of interest and other important information.  

Additional tips, advice and help can be found by following the "Editing Tips & How-tos" link on your dashboard. This area provides 
supporting documentation that explains editing in greater detail.

The "Tools for Editors" link provides addition information on using secondary editing tools that will help make editing easier and more efficient.

************************
Forums and Communication
************************

ODP editors talk to one another via internal message boards and feedback. The forums provide informal information about editing, and 
provide you with a 'lay of the land.'   After you log in, visit the New Editors forum. It is specifically designed for newcomers with general questions.

The Open Directory Project is a community.  It is important to have a critical eye for organization, as well as the ability to get along well with other editors. 
 Communication is extremely important. Talk with other editors around you both via email and in the forums.  If you are sharing a category with other editors,
 it is a good idea to inform them before making any major changes, to avoid unpleasant reactions.

********************
The Big Picture
********************

The Open Directory Project aims to build the most comprehensive, highest quality, and definitive catalog of the Web following an Open Source model.  
The principal goal of every editor is to create an objective and useful resource for the Web community.  The ODP exists as a non-commercial, end-user 
resource created by Web users for Web users.  We do not bar editors with business affiliations, since those editors with their own sites usually know 
their competition and related sites better than anyone.  This knowledge can be ideal for helping build an authoritative directory. 

However, we will not tolerate editors who only add their own sites, add or promote their own sites unfairly, or maliciously interfere with others' listings 
in the directory. Editors should not designate their own site as a "cool" site. Editors should also be on the look out for abuse by other editors, and promptly
report such cases using the abuse report form located at http://dmoz.org/editors/abuse.cgi?action=report
We take abuse reports very seriously and will investigate each and every instance. We have a no-nonsense policy when it comes to abuse and spam. 
An abusive editor may have his/her account removed without warning and notice.

The ODP does not exist to meet the marketing and promotional needs of e-commerce. Unlike its commercial counterparts, the ODP does not advertise, 
promote or optimize websites for search engines.  We believe strongly that a Web resource should give users what they want to see, and not what marketers, 
advertisers, and businesspersons think they ought to see. 

For more information on the ODP's larger mission, please review our Social Contract with the Web community at http://dmoz.org/socialcontract.html

Copyright Information
********************

Editors grant us a non-exclusive right to use and modify material (link descriptions, communications, directory organization, supporting documentation, etc.) 
they submit as necessary for the benefit of the directory. In turn, we provide non-exclusive, royalty free rights back to our editors for your personal contributions, 
so you can present your material to the greater Web community in other ways if desired.

Please be aware that the Open Directory has a strict policy against copyright infringement.  Editors must take care not to copy any material from other sites that 
could be considered to be another person's intellectual property.  This would include descriptions from other directories or search engines as well as hierarchy structures. 
(Note: It is usually ok to use quotes or excerpts from public web sites in descriptions or reviews of those sites.)

Thank you for volunteering to edit the Open Directory.  If you have questions, bug reports or suggestions please post them in the appropriate editor forum.
