We keep listings of old URLs as a way for anyone using them to find the new ones. It's always a good idea to avoid changing the URLs but it does happen. > Also, I would like to be able to edit the feed titles, if possible. The data shown on the feed info pages is derived from the feed itself. There's no editing. If the data changes there's an [update] button that feed reviewers can use to reload the info shown on the info page. This way anything shown is controlled right from the data. Bear in mind, however, that the system doesn't 'automagically' update some of the fields. These are controlled manually to prevent some aspects of search engine gaming. We've run into past trouble with people screwing around with their feed titles in the naive hope of jockeying for search engine rankings. While we certainly understand why some folks want to play these games we choose to list data that seeks long-term reliability and consistency. Thus unless an editor updates the feeds the data won't change on the info listing. It's worked very well thus far. > If I could just delete them entirely and start again, that would be > fine... No need to delete, just submit the new ones. -Bill Kearney Syndic8.com ------------------------ Yahoo! Groups Sponsor --------------------~--> In low income neighborhoods, 84% do not own computers.
