I wonder if wind turbine could possibly be eligible.
There is a wind farm in the forest and the wind turbines are an objective of trails in this forest, but i hesitate to nominate them.
From my point of view they would be great wayspot: hand made things in a natural area + an objective of trail + interesting for educationnal.
I don't have photo for now (never try to submit them for now) but this article is about them (to give an idea) https://www.facebook.com/alsace20.tv/posts/10155685051588652/
And the app Randéole on the app store and adroid store to see the trail about theses wind turbines.
I would like to have an idea if i can try to submit theses wind turbine and have a chance to get them validated.
Thanks.

First of all: I cant see the shared picture, I dont have Facebook and you need to be logged in to see it.
Secondly, wind turbines are not eligible, at least the ones I am thinking about:
Wind turbines are mass produced/generic + not always have safe pedestrian access.
For me, its a 1*. However, Id approve artwork on them when they are reachable for pedestrians.
An old windmill: yes
A 'new' windturbine: no
But like Luke said: some of those turbines have cool streetart on them (not those random tags, but art), in that case i would accept the artwork
I don't have facebook so cant see the picture but a wind turbine can be a good POI, however it needs something about it that makes it special.
Take this one for instance
It has an observation deck where visitors are encouraged to climb to and look out, has tours around it promoting renewable energy sources.
If it was just a standard wind turbine in a wind farm, then no, something like the one above, then yes
Ok thanks. Not really cool, but ok. (I don't agree on the generic/mass producted argument because that something unique and very interesting in the area)
So i will only submit the QRcode around them. QRcode witch grand acces to digital information sign about the Wind turbines (on an dedicated app). As a sign accessible to public, i supposed i have more chance of getting them accepted.
Can you send a picture of it? Might help preventing the system from unnecesary submissions.
As i said, i don't have picture, and what was said is enought to not submit the wind turbines for now (despite the fact i think they are really important)
For the QRcode, i'm certain they are eligible because they are sign about nature or educationnal sign about the wind turbine. (depends on the QRcode) AND they are also a Trail marker for the randéole trail. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.celuga.randeole&hl=fr&gl=US
Usually generic and mass produced unless you can show some sort of educational value. If they have a sign like you say depending on what the sign says you should possibly submit the sign itself
That's why i will submit the QRcode. I just hope reviewer will read the additionnal information to understand that QR is a digital sign.
Thanks.
So I try one of the QR code and it's now accepted.
Thanks. That's will make the wind farm and the forest a great place to play in some months.
