Some parks don’t appear as dark shaded green areas in pokemon go,and the gym near it cannot become an ex raid gym. How can I submit an appeal for that.

You need to change the area tag in the OpenStreetMap. And if the change is accepted, wait until Niantic decides to update the map.
Can you please elaborate on that.
This is not a Wayfarer-related issue. There are subreddits (The Silph Road, for example) and other websites where there are plenty of posts about this.
Niantic do not control OpenStreet Map, but do make use of it. However, they only take an ubdate from OSM very infrequently, so even if you get changes made to OSM it may take months or years for that to be reflected in PoGo.
Niantic uses openstreetmap.org (OSM) as its base for the worlds we see in Ingress, PoGo and HPWW.
Openstreetmap works a bit like Wikipedia - it's a community effort created and edited by members of the public. There's good reason for Niantic not to use every latest update to OSM - it would leave it open to yet more fake portal abuse!
Parks have been a problem for ages. Here's a YT video that will explain not only that but a whole lot else which you'll probably find helpful. It's a few years old but all still relevant in terms of parks, creation of Wayspots and how that translates to PoGo. The section on parks starts at 10:02 but I'd recommend skimming through the whole thing as it gives you good context.

He intentado hablar sobre el tema de openstreetmap y Niantic waifarer siempre me ha bloqueado y eliminado los mensajes. NO HAY TRANSPARENCIA SOBRE ESTE TEMA y a algunos nos resulta interesante para poner en practica y tener siempre actualizados los mapas. Pero a NW no le gusta este tema en su foro.
Please direct all your PoGo related questions that aren't directly Wayfarer related to somewhere else please.
