Need help on nominations
Hi -
I am new to this and now have had 2 nominations rejected. I have been reviewing for days to get the upgrades, but almost feel like quitting because I feel like I am doing what I am supposed to but apparently am not. Help would be great.
NOTE: This is a new development over the past 2 years. There aren't any google images of the landscape but the maps of the roads are there. You can see in the google image where the road overlay is over the old landscape. I was rejected for both of my submissions for the same reasons below:
This nomination has been rejected due to the following reason(s):
The real-world location of the nomination could not be confirmed to have an acceptable pedestrian pathway leading up to it, Nomination does not meet acceptance criteria, The real-world location of the nomination appears to be on private residential property or farm.
There is clearly a walking path on the left side of both images.
It is clearly not on private property, not sure how better to show that.
Thanks!!

You need to post your entire submission, including title, description, and supporting information. As it is, we have no indication of what "Serrano Summit" is or why it should be eligible.
So neighbourhood welcome signs are not eligible unless they are very artistically unique. Thats why you got the “does not meet criteria” rejection which is correct
It would really help if you post screenshots of your full nomination (all photos, descriptions, rejection mail etc.), looking at your current post we can only think why it might be rejected. When we see your nomination, we will know what reviewers see and why it was rejected.
But as Jtronmoore-PGO said, if it's a neighborhood welcome sign, then it's ineligible, they don't met acceptance criteria unless they're some kind of art.
And for your other rejection criteria, you just mentioned that it doesn't show either on map or streetview (at least that's what I got from your post, correct me if I am wrong :) ), so it's hard to reviewers to see it and check if there is any safe pedestrian acces. On maps it look like something nominated near road that doesn't have any pavement and looks like some otuside of city road that wouldn't allow pedestrians on it, because cars should drive here really fast. If your map view is out of date, then maybe doing photosphere will help (but it must be done in place that will show on it things that you can see on old map view too, so people won't think it's a fake photosphere).
But this one really looks like something that won't get accepted, it just doesn't mets criteria.
And what is your second nomination? You mentioned two, but we only see one here :)
