|  UnderSeaLevel | May 10, 10:30am | | A fashion site that focuses on wholesale fashion jewelry and accessories was miscatted. Accessory Wholesale Inc (awnol.com) is as clean as children's cartoons, even selling religious jewelry and accessories. Yet it was miscategorized as porn, which shows up when members see the listing in Yahoo. Other sites have had the same miscats and I believe much of it is innocent mistakes. New members that are not familiar with Stumble Upon hit the submit button without setting the category. The first category in the box is porn so sites for a general audience get miscatted. A possible fix would be a window that opens after hitting submit saying "Is this _______". That way stumblers can double check that they are not placing a site in the wrong category. |

Unless it have changed recently, Porn is not the default category, if no topic have been choosen, the site get autocatted (put in a topic by a algorithm) or in unknown if nothing match. |

|  missfuzzybunny | Jun 7, 5:31am | I'm frustrated by the same thing. Take this site, for instance: etsy.com/shop.php [etsy.com/shop.php] In what possible way could this site be considered pornography, or the products sold? If they were made from cotton knit, would anyone even dream of miscategorizing the store as porn?
I submitted multiple error reports so now the site is classified as porn AND fashion. There is no porn at all in the equasion. Can I please be added as a miscatter for fashion and latex fashion sites? We are doing rising young designers a huge disfavor by wrongly categorizing their work! |
