The "Listed/Unlisted" switch should mirror the actual state of the generator, i.e. if it's actually listed on the generators directory or not. Currently, it only states the intention of the creator, who must go and check manually the directory at each modification of the site.

Previously, the old links "Make public / Make private" gave an almost instant feedback, alerting the creator that there was something wrong with his site. Now the feedback is gone; and a "Listed" switch for an unlisted site is misleading...

The actual generator list (offcial list) actually has a ban list and ban word list. So it's impossible to mirror currently.

    Thank you, as always, for the important info. But this is a problem, as the new check system isn't as quick to judge as the old one (a complete review can take days), and I often realized very late that a site of mine had been excluded from the official listing, or had been totally blocked.

    However, based on the info you provide, it should be possible to check if the site is on the listing, and if it's not (for whatever reason, including automatic check, manual ban list and ban word list) the switch should reflect that. If checking the official listing it too heavy on the server, maybe creating a JSON or XML snapshot updated every few hours would be better than nothing anyway.

    There's something interesting that the dev seems never want the banned one knows too soon they are banned (comment and gallery), so I think he will keep this thing. Plus the official is actually not the api. Yes it is THE offcial but not the potential.
