Yes it took a while but PR has finally been updated on our directory list. I apologize for the delay. For years, I ran a program that ran through the database and updated the PR. As a result of some Google changes this program recently stopped working. To make matters worse, the writer of the program was no longer supporting it.
I searched around for a while but did not find anything to update the PageRank. Finally, I was able to test a program from David at PHPLD that ran on my own machine. This program worked, but it’s results were far from perfect. The good news that it updated the high PR well. The bad news is that I received almost a thousand inaccurate PRs of NA (-1). I then spent 4 days going through all the NA PRs to verify them. On the brighter side, it gave me a chance to look at many of the directories that don’t get reviewed very often. I removed many dead directories or sites that are no longer directories. Unfortunately, I did not look at all of them. I skipped many directories that had less change of having PR, such as sites where the directory is a sub-folder (e.g. abc.com/directory).
In the coming weeks, I will be working through improving the data further. If you see a site with inaccurate PR please help me out by filling in a report. Thanks in advance.
