I recently found a new website -- Perth Network Navigator (an exclusively WA-based search engine) and submitted the URL of my Club (Perth Field Rifle Club) for inclusion. This was the reply I received:

Your submission to the Perth Network Navigator has not been processed for the following reasons
http://www.infobahn.com.au/Search/pnn.phtml
The URL you have entered is not considered suitable for inclusion in the Perth Network Navigator. A possible reason could be that the site is hosted under a private account (eg www.isp.com.au/~username) or the site doesn't have original content promoting WA (thus a site of links to other site do not qualify).
Best Regards

=============================================
Note:
1. The site URL is www.angelfire.com/wa/pfrc (not a "private" account)
2. It is exclusively WA content (apart from a handful of overseas links)
=============================================
The following is my reply to Mr Hoskin (I hope I was restrained, considering my feelings):
Craig
Thank you for the courtesy of a reply.
I admit I'm surprised at your exclusion. The site is exclusively Western Australian (Perth) content and no different in content from other similar sites you host links to.
May I suggest that if you have links to Subiaco Smallbore Rifle Club, SSAA (WA) and Storm Paintball (incidentally, not a legal sport in WA), then my site qualifies for inclusion.
Given that, I accept your decision with good grace, but WILL make sure that other shooting sports associations and related groups in WA are aware of your decision and the reasons for it.

President
Perth Field Rifle Club Inc.

OK -- I feel much better now
