Sometimes sites listed in the Yahoo! Directory have significantly changed content or are redirecting to other sites since last visited by a Yahoo! editor. If a listing in the Directory is redirecting to inappropriate or offensive content please report them to us so we can take the necessary steps to remove the site from our index.

Our primary goal is to provide quick, intuitive access to the wide variety of information available on the Web.

We do not aim to judge web content for appropriateness or to censor materials that we find offensive or inappropriate. Instead, we present information as it is reflected on the Web, allowing you to draw your own informed conclusions about what you see.

If you know of sites that offer an opposing point of view, we welcome the opportunity to review them for possible inclusion.

If you have found a site that seems inappropriate for the category it is in, please send an email to Directory Support with URL and the category of the site. (Click the "Contact Customer Care" link below to send an email.) We will make sure the site is reviewed.

Please remember to include the category where the site was listed and the site's URL in your email.

For example:

URL:www.offending site.com
Directory Category:Directory > Arts > Humanities > Literature > Genres > Children's > Poetry
