Delay in processing Wayfarer candidates

Greetings
About four months ago, my requests took approximately two weeks to process and I received feedback if my candidate passed or was rejected. Today I have candidates who have been voting for more than two months or in line. Why is it taking so long? I only get quick feedback when I use Enhancement. It seems that you are doing this on purpose to force us to keep evaluating other candidates until we are able to redeem the Enhancement and have our candidate processed.

There are theiories about the quere time. But noone really knows how the system works. But what I would say is, that the waiting time goes up with the number of existing POIs in a certain area.
More submissions + less reviewers = longer waiting times.
It's like this all over the world.
Niantic's cooldowns don't help when people that want to review get punished after 10 reviews. The effort involved these days does not match the reward, plus the constant garbage submissions means people have dropped off massively.
All you can do is get upgrades and eventually the nominations will clear. It may take 6 months, 1 year or longer. Either review and upgrade, or wait.
Recently we had snow in germany, something that doesnt really happen anymore. it was about 4 weeks ago.
you wouldnt believe how many submissions i had to review in the last few days that had snow!
I feel embarrassed that i have submissions in queue that are there for more than 8 month, that have not even gone into voting, and here i sit and review things that are submitted less then 3 weeks ago.
I still think it is a poor design to church out things into voting until the old stuff is done. feels like buying new groceries when there is stuff in the fridge since 8 month.
I agree with you.
Why does all of your nominations have ,,SP" in description? Is that some local code that makes everyone give you 5*? If that's the case it's abuse and must be recorded
Maybe they are year old or upgraded
That's the location. Most probably it's short for São Paulo.
ok
But why is it shortened my nominations show 22 character long location name and not do any shortcut
No idea, but that's also an automatically generated thing that I, as a user, have no influence over. So I don't think it's important at all.
there was no snowz here last year.
