  <h1 align="center">Getting Started in DMOZ</h1>
  <p>DMOZ or the Open Directory Project is a volunteer-led Web directory, the 
    largest and most comprehensive of its type. This tutorial explains some basic 
    concepts and assumes that you have been accepted as an editor; if you've not 
    been, then consider applying.</p>
  <h3>Logging In </h3>
  <p>Before you can actually edit anything, you need to identify yourself to the 
    system -- this process ensures that you have access to the appropriate categories. 
    To do so, go to the front page of DMOZ and click the 'editor login' link. 
    When prompted for your username and password enter the details with which 
    you applied. If you have forgotten this information, then consult the e-mail 
    you received when you were accepted. If you don't have this e-mail to hand, 
    then you can request your password be sent to you via <a href="http://dmoz.org/cgi-bin/forgot.cgi">http://dmoz.org/cgi-bin/forgot.cgi 
    </a></p>
  <h3>The Editor Dashboard</h3>
  <p>If all goes smoothly, you should now be confronted with the dashboard screen 
    -- the central control panel for all editing-related tasks. It is from this 
    screen that you can easily access the editor fora, the categories to which 
    you have access, editing logs, guidelines, and your watchlist. The dashboard 
    is explained in detail in the aptly named <a href="?id=06002">Dashboard 
    Tutorial</a>. </p>
  <h3>What Do Editors Do? </h3>
  <p>The basic responsibility of an editor is to build and maintain a category 
    of useful, well-described links on the relevant topic. These links will come 
    both from submissions by site owners, and the editor's own research on the 
    topic. In addition to adding new sites, currently listed sites need to be 
    periodically checked to ensure that they are still accessible, and the content 
    they feature matches the description they've been given. For more information 
    see: <a href="?id=03005">Editors: Role</a></p>
  <h3>The Editor Fora </h3>
  <p>The discussion fora (plural of 'forum') for ODP editors is a vital part of 
    the editing experience. They allow you to interact with fellow editors, participate 
    in discussions that shape the directory's future, and ask questions. It is 
    highly suggested that you at least read, and preferably contribute, to these 
    discussions. For more information see: <a href="?id=02003">Communication: 
    Fora</a> </p>
  <h3>Unreviewed Sites</h3>
  <p>URLs submitted to the directory by members of the general public are said 
    to be 'unreviewed'. This means that the submitter has suggested that a site 
    is listed in the category to which they submitted it to. If an editor agrees, 
    they can review it, thus making it visible to the public. </p>
  <h3>Questions? </h3>
  <p>As a new editor, you will likely have a number of questions you'd like addressed. 
    There are many resources that contain relevant answers, and it is well worth 
    becoming acquainted with them. The most important reference is the <a href = "http://dmoz.org/guidelines/">official guidelines</a> -- the authoritative guide to editing. Other general works include 
    this very guide you're reading currently, <a href="?">DMOZ 
    Documentation Project</a> , and the documents contained within <a href="http://dmoz.org/Test/Tools_for_Editors/FAQs_and_Advice_for_Editors/">Test/Tools_for_Editors/FAQs_and_Advice_for_Editors</a>. 
    In addition, the editor fora is a useful resource for finding answers to your 
    questions, but it should be remembered that the advice contained within can 
    be misleading/incorrect -- it is not an official resource. If you are unable 
    to find the answer to your question in any of the aforementioned resources, 
    then I suggest you ask in the <a href="http://dmoz.org/forum/forumdisplay.cgi?action=topics&amp;forum=New+Editors&amp;number=31">New 
    Editors forum</a>. </p>
