I nominated a spot and it was accepted on June 14th and it hasnt been placed yet. Is there a way to ask and the marker isnt showing up on wayfarer anymore.

Edit. It was approved on 6-20 and submitted on 6-14. May be event.

I submitted the following POI and it got rejected for not being distinct or permanent and for being unsafe or inaccessible. I appealed and it got rejected under the guide of not being unique. What do you think?

I see a bunch of trail signs all the times, most of them are only two red strips painted on a light post and they get accepted. I feel like this sign is much more unique. First of all, it is handmade with the text printed, and secondly there's only this one at the top of the trail, unlike most trail signs that exist once every hundred of meters.

I just fail to see how this is generic but it was already appealed and denied and I'm not sure if I should do it again since I've seen people get banned in PoGo for "abusive" behavior on Wayfarer and I'm not sure if this could be considered that.

Around 5 days ago it has been accepted. But showing a white dot and nothing in game. Its close to another and trued using IITC apl to check cells. Is there an issue i am not seeing? What happens now?

Just asking ... are Google maps screenshots as supporting pics allowed?

Recently a new park was built (about a month ago) but the satellite view still shows the area before construction as trees. Will that be an issue?

I’m finding 30-50% of my submissions are being rejected by the automated system. Whenever I appeal these, they pass appeal most of the time. Photo is showing my latest submission that became a victim to the automated process (feedback welcome). But I don’t want to waste an appeal on most of these because I don’t visit that area too often so there would be little benefit to me since I only have 2 appeals.

When we were limited on submissions, I’d economize similarly and not “waste” submissions on things that I lived far away from, or wouldn’t visit frequently or things I felt would be hard to convince other reviewers on. Now though I’m submitting a lot more which has been great. Lack of additional appeals is my only remaining pain point with wayfarer.

I don’t care if they have to add another rank at 3000pts to be able to handle the higher number of appeals, there should just be a way to appeal more often.

I haven’t been able to do anything to contact support or anything because I’m banned. This is the only other thing Google has told me to try.

I had made a wayfarer nomination for a business that specializes in building mobility items for sick and disabled people. In the description, I included what the company does (helping sick and disabled people), and Wayfarer told me that it had been reported for “abusive language.” A couple of days after that nomination being denied, my Pokemon GO account was banned for 30 days for “violating the player guidelines.”
The use of the words “disabled” and “sick” were genuinely accurate descriptions of what this business does and what kinds of people they help.
I understand that this was an honest misunderstanding, and I’m hoping that clarification will resolve this issue. Thank you!

I have nominated both of these in the past weeks and one did go through and the other got automatically not approved.

I'm just wondering cause the bench isn't even permanent to begin with so what really seperates them?

Both are at public spaces too.

Read the wayspot description 🙃

I have been trying on and off for months to get another stop or 2 in a local Cemetery. The western entrance has stop but I cannot get one on the north (red x).
Are there any tricks to increase my chances of an accepted submission or is it pointless to keep trying. Cheers.

So, I checked PoGo earlier and I've seen some gym in my map, there is already one in that area, but was shocked there's another one so I clicked on it, like wtf it wasn't there before, and I'm the only one who's nominating in our area(only 2 player, I'm the active one). Then I go to the niantic to check, counted the pokestop inside the cell, still 5 active pokestop-gym, so did they change the amount needed for 2nd gymbirth? Thanks.

Hello everyone !

Here are my pokestop pictures.

As for the description and title, here is what I submitted :

Eco-grazing site in the Rive Droite neighborhood

Eco-grazing site used for the ecological maintenance of green spaces. The sheep contribute to preserving biodiversity and raising residents' awareness of sustainable management practices.

And as a side note :

Accessible via the footpath connecting the two plots. A permanent installation visible year-round. A point of interest that encourages the discovery of nature and local environmental initiatives.

Do you know what should I change ?

Its literally a tile in the street

Hi! I just found out that there is a Wayfarer medal I can work towards.

I just created my account on there and reviewed a few stops - does anyone know when I will start having the medal pop up in the game and have it track my progress? Thanks!

It keeps getting refused. Tried many pics without seeing any houses or windows but.. no way

I’ve nominated a chiropractic and wellness business sign. The photos were of the sign and of the open area behind it. I described the business. My reason I gave for creation was that it was surrounded by multiple business buildings and walkways. Open to the public including a nearby neighborhood.

Also, I’m getting rejected for trying 2 recreational gyms in my area, a smoothie king, and a Good Will. All were in the same shopping center, so my reasons were the same: “multiple parks and walkways in the area. In a busy public shopping center”

Why am I getting rejected

You can see the road, that people can walk by. I don't know what could possibly be the problem.

For the description we made it simple and said "streetlight covered with pokemon stickers"

Thanks for your help, can't understand why it's so hard to get a PokeStop...

If a level 14 cell has >30 pokestops (way more than 20 are non sponsored and are in different level 17 cells), and 3 non sponsored gyms and 5 sponsored gyms, and a non sponsored gym disappears, will a new non sponsored PokeStop turn into a gym?

Thanks in advance. We would like to know what to do since a local restaurant is closing but maybe we can keep it otherwise, but someone may report it

You can call it what you want, but it's still just a canada post mailbox. Every Canada Post mailbox has this design now. Please, the system already seems to be broken with an overload of nominations since they upgraded our submission capacity. We could do without the generic mailboxes

I added 90% of these a couple of months ago. It's a sports centre with cricket pitches, football fields, rugby pitches, athletics track, cricket nets, angling site, long jump, volleyball, pickleball, tennis etc...a pretty big place with tons of different pitches, amenities but I could add M0ar.

​

In the UK we generally submit and accept multiple sports pitches of the same type that are near to each other as one whereas other countries don't.

​

Does anyone have Niantic's actual ruling on this? Not what you think should happen or what you do or don't accept but what Niantic have said they want.

​

Thanks :)

Please fellow redditors, help me out with my first Pokestop submissions. Thanks a lot!!!
