Niantic, you ruined wayfarer in Turkey! You created illegal pokestops ( apartment, flat, barber, tailor, groceries, gas station, repair and many places that don't meet any criteria). And those people that live that are constatly add photos those illegal pokestops. And whenever I want to review, I can only see those photo edit requests instead of new and legal pokestop requests. That doesn't increase my aggrements tho! Today I reviewed 200 submission and only 6 of them new pokestop request. By adding new ILLEGAL pokestops, you punished legal legit players.
Now how can I get upgrades to add newpokestops to my community that play legit? It takes 6 months to 1 year before this new pokestops added. Now million of illegal/fake stops added in my country's rural areas. So basically I can't use wayfarer anymore? Please do something about TURKEY.

Same happened in Russia.
Millions of Wayspots = People can play. People can play = Niantic can generate $$.
Well, i guess there is no need for Wayfarer in Turkey anymore. Get out and Play = $$
Well those pokestops are not in big cities. Nearly noone play in that area and Niantic doesn't get anything. Now some rural area that has 30k population have more pokestops than big city that has over 7 million population. That has to be fixed! I and my friends can submit pokestops to contribute the community. But this illegal pokestop took away our rights!
t's not just Turkey and Russia, even though the Imported countries are certainly suffering the most: reviews in neighboring countries are suffering, too, and even here in the eastern US we've seen more experienced reviewers simply quit reviewing in disgust over the deluge of poor nominations awaiting review. The impact is system-wide: everything is slow, and reviewing is much harder work, and legit candidates suffer.
So there are different problems.
Maybe no one play in small cities because they didn't have enough pokestops and now they will be able to play, that should be good.
But neglecting big cities is obviously bad, the addition of new pokestops should have been more evenly distributed so big cities get enough pokestops and all of you can play without worrying about wayfarer. That's a problem in the current implementation.
And of course, if there are pokestops added in unsafe places or non-existing locations that's bad and those pokestops should be reviewed by Niantic.
If now the players in those locations are adding photos and they're flooding Wayfarer that's an additional problem that should be handled by Niantic
Another problem is that good quality submits for rural areas which are in the queue Or in voting now will never appear in games because they are now TOO CLOSE to the junk portals.
I agree it is annoying to get so many edit and so little reviews. Not nearly your scenario but I had a streak today with 10 edits and only 4 reviews mixed in.
feedback from Pokémon GO players in the regions in which these new locations were added has been overwhelmingly positive
Moar pokamon from couch, yeah
