Wikipedia Better than DMOZ

I was perusing link directory scripts on DMOZ and noticed the information is out of date. There are quite a few old scripts lists here but not nearly a clear reflection of the current market. It is unfortunate that DMOZ is slowly moving further into the stone age while human edited sites like Wikipedia are still thriving. I remember when I was so happy to finally get a link on DMOZ after a long wait, and now the link is pretty worthless, though sites like SeoMoz give DMOZ a high authority rank still. That said, even SeoMoz ranks wikipedia higher in terms of domain authority.

Heck even an old resource like Resource has a better listing for Link Management than DMOZ. I think DMOZ could do so much better if they could somehow make it worthwhile yet not spammy for editors to actually want to participate.
