it's within the 20-meter radius of a different POI, so it got auto rejected by Niantics system.
even if in wayfarer its accepted?
Yes.
And moving a PoGo stop away from it's correct location just to make it appear in game in an empty S17 cell, and then making an edit request to move it back to the "correct" location could be considered abuse and is the reason Niantic changed the edit rules, just to prevent such behaviour.
Even it it were moved to an empty S17 cell, if you move it back into another S17 cell that already holds a Stop or a Gym, your stop will not show up in PoGo. Under the new rules, only one Waypoint can be live in PoGo in any S17 cell at any one time, so moving the stop backwards and forwards would be a waste of time.
Appeal Denied - Thanks for the appeal, Trainer. We have reviewed your submission “Stół pingpongowy” and found that it's not currently eligible to appear in Niantic games as it is in close proximity to already existing in-game locations.
