Sourced but wrong? edit

[1] says that Curlie is "Formerly DMoz" and there is a blog commenter at [2] who says " It will be announced in this forum when the new site (curlie.org) is fully operational" but he also says "Dmoztools is at the moment the official continuation of dmoz, and is provided by the editor community". [3] says " We are the Curlie Crew. We are the former DMOZ editing community, and along with the open directory content, we migrated to a new independent project called Curlie." but now they claim[4] "Historically known as the Open Directory Project (ODP) and DMOZ"

It looks to me like the owner of DMOZ (why do somne sources say Yahooo and some AOL?) closed it down and the volunteers created a new version. Should this page call Curie "a successor of DMOZ"? Perhaps a bit of a history section would help. --Guy Macon (talk) 05:52, 29 January 2019 (UTC)Reply
