<p align="left">Voici quelques concepts de base utiliss dans l'dition et avec lesquels vous pouvez souhaiter vous familiariser:</p>
<h2>Sites en attente /sites lists</h2>
<p>Tous les sites du rpertoire ont l'un de ces deux statuts: "en attente" ou "list".</p>
<p>Lorsqu'un site est soumis par un utilisateur du rpertoire il est affect du statut "en attente". Les sites en attente ne sont visibles que par les diteurs qui peuvent diter dans la catgorie o ils se trouvent; le public ne peut pas les voir et ils ne figurent pas dans le fichier RDF que DMOZ met  disposition pour l'usage de ses donnes par d'autres.</p>
<p> In addition, editors can themselves add sites to Unreviewed -- either directly, 
  or by moving them from Reviewed. The latter often occurs when sites that have 
  been previously listed (i.e. those in the Reviewed state) become inaccessible 
  -- they can be moved out of the public view for later inspection by an editor. 
</p>
<p>Editors can publish sites from Unreviewed to Reviewed in any category they 
  have permissions in. Doing so ensures that the sites appear as part of the directory 
  for use by others. </p>
<h2>No editor owns a category</h2>
<p> Although the category in which an editor has privileges in is commonly referred 
  to as "<i>their</i> category", they do not own it. That is to say, they cannot 
  make major changes without the consensus of their colleagues. This is generally 
  achieved via the Editor Fora. </p>
<p>Continuing this theme, no editor has exclusive rights in categories they have 
  privileges for. Editors with permissions in parent categories, or those with 
  editall or above privileges, are entitled, and indeed are encouraged, to edit 
  in these categories as well. </p>
<h2>Public-side vs. Edit-side</h2>
<p> Put simply, the 'public-side' of the Directory is any area that does not require 
  an editor account to view. Conversely, the 'editor-side' is any area that <i>does</i> 
  require an editor account to view. </p>
<p>Some parts of the directory have a public-side view <i>and</i> an editor-side 
  view. For example, the public-side of the Home/ category is shown below left, 
  and the edit-side is below right:</p>
<center><small><i>(Images are linked to larger versions).</i></small></center>  
<table border="0" align="center">
  <tr>
    <td><a href="/ddp/i/167.gif"><img src="/ddp/i/165.gif" width="313" height="196" hspace="10" border="1"></a></td>
    <td><a href="/ddp/i/168.gif"><img src="/ddp/i/166.gif" width="294" height="172" hspace="10" border="1"></a></td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td>
      <div align="center"><font size="-1"><b>Home/ - Public-side view.</b></font></div>
    </td>
    <td>
      <div align="center"><b><font size="-1">Home/ - Edit-side view.</font></b></div>
    </td>
  </tr>
</table>
<p align="left">The former is accessible to everyone and allows the category's 
  contents to be viewed and navigated; the latter is accessible only to editors 
  with appropriate permissions, and allows the category's contents to be altered.
