What is the difference between a "Just Discovered" link and an "Established" link in OSE?

What is the difference between a "Just Discovered" link and an "Established" link in OSE? How long does it generally take for a just discovered link to migrate in to the established link section? Are there other parameters that need to be met before a link can be referred to as established?
Sorry for all the questions in one post, but I've had the same "just discovered" links in OSE for quite some time and have yet to see them migrate over to the "established" link section. I was hoping that when these links become established that it would help improve my site DA. Can anyone shed any light on this issue or have any other comments?
Thanks MOZ!

Hey Gerard,
Paddy's right that it can be about 4-8 weeks to see the Just Discovered links show up in the main index, but we also had a delay in this most recent update so the data is not as fresh as it normally would be. Normally, the data in the index is collected for about three weeks prior to the update, while the data for this index is probably closer to 6 weeks. Even so, we began feeding sites and links into the scheduler to be included in the next index well before we start collecting data. This means that, even if we found your links in Just Discovered links 6 or 7 weeks ago, those links might not have made it into the scheduler for this most recent update. They should be in the schedule for our next update, however.
I would say that it can be several updates before you see the links from Just Discovered show up as fully established links in the index as a general rule. We are working on a project that will make the index update with much fresher data in the future.
I hope this information helps. Please let me know if you have any other questions.

Thanks for the response Paddy,
I posted a similar question about OSE not too long ago and received a similar response (about looking at the mozscape update). I suppose that my only issue is that I'm really not seeing the new links generate in the established section, even after an update. I've been doing a lot of work in reaching out and developing new links from good sources, but I want to make sure I can see the results/data from all of the link building.
Thanks again! Cheers!

Generally it can its about 4-8 weeks before mozscape will start showing the new back link.

Domain Authority Historic Differences?
Moz Team, We are again seeing shifts on how we report on Domain Authority. When Moz moved from OSE to LE, domain authority scores changed (which is fine because our direct competitors in LE also saw similar changes). The problem is it looks like domain authority trends have re-calibrated to show a long term decline instead of a long term increase, which changes the narrative entirely. Please see IMGUR link. Is this a temporary issue, or has Moz again changed the scale in which DA is measured? Is anyone else seeing disparities in their data? Thanks All! NfnM4dk.jpg

Moz Pro: Filter inbound links by partial anchor text?
My site has been targeted by a spam farm with hundreds of different domains, all linking to images on our CDN with similar variations of anchor text, eg: get free high quality hd wallpapers wedding cake makers
Link Explorer | | James_NZ
get free high quality hd wallpapers hairstyle makeover
get free high quality hd wallpapers living room cafe
etc Is it possible within Moz Pro to filter all incoming links with anchor text including "free high quality hd wallpapers" so that I can disavow all of the domains en masse? So far I've only been able to display/download the list of links exactly matching the full anchor text which is very time-consuming with 100+ variations. Regards,

No Internal Links
I have noticed on both OSE and also on the Crawl Test that our site www.advantageservices.net is showing only 1 internal link. I tried looking around as what might cause this but haven't been able to figure it out.
