State vocabularies differ by listing type. A job is never “published” and an event is never “filled”. Use the state your listing type actually has.

Review is a separate axis

Every listing type carries a review verdict alongside its own state: Pending, Approved, or Rejected. Nothing you create waits in a queue: a listing you publish is approved on submission and discoverable straight away. Pending means it was pulled back for review, or it arrived by import rather than a create form. A rejected verdict keeps a listing out of public discovery whatever its own state says.

Claims

A hub that exists without an accountable manager can be claimed. Proving you control the company’s X account or an address on its email domain approves the claim as you make it, so there is no queue to wait in. A claim that is not approved carries a reason, and a claim someone else resolved first is closed. A hub that already has an owner is not claimable. Neither is a suspended company, nor an imported listing that has not yet been matched to a company profile. A seeded hub is one Dapping assembled from public sources, so a company is findable before anyone there joins. Its listings carry no engagement, read as community-maintained, and all transfer together when someone claims the hub.

Confirmation-dependent relationships

Some public relationships become active only after another participant accepts them. An invitation or request is not an active relationship.

Before you can publish anything

Your account needs a verified email address to create a listing. To publish under a company rather than under your own profile, you must be an owner or an admin of that company; members cannot publish on its behalf.
