Location edits that never arrive

Hello, since i've been playing in Ingress i have sent a lot of edits of portals/poi/wayspots/what you want to call them, and there is a little trouble about that... Many of them have been accepted/denied but always the edits that I did outside of the town that I live.
As I said all the edits that have sent did in El Prat de Llobregat (province of Barcelona, Spain) I never had a response about if those have been accepted or denied, And I've been sending edits about also Titles and Descriptions and locations that are wrong (many POI's on an incorrect location that other players put there and maybe there are edits of POI that I have sent and are accepted). There are edits that have been sent since june/july 2018 when I started to play at Ingress.
What should I do? Wait more? Why there are edits in other towns/cities near El Prat de Llobregat that many of the edits that I have sent are accepted/denied? I can put the example of edits just maybe 5-7km from El Prat de Llobregat that have been solved in a few weeks include days.
There are players from outside El Prat de Llobregat that have sent edits also in El Prat de Llobregat and they didn't get a response yet.
Also I have nominations of POI that are "in voting" or "in cue" since 1 year ago. This is normal? I think that no, because i have other nominations from other places as Navarra and Cantabria that have been solved (accepted/denied) in a week or two weeks, no more time. People from El Prat that play Pokémon Go also is in the same trouble, and the unique solution is putting an upgrade to the nomination to get it accepted/denied.
Can anyone from Niantic read this and do something about that? Thanks.

Review times vary dramatically depending on the area, according to rules that Niantic probably doesn't want us to know. So I am not surprised that you have had edits in voting for three years now. However, it's not really a smart thing. Especially in already populated areas, and especially now that the possibilities of PoGo abuse have been drastically reduced, the evaluation of edits should be much faster, otherwise a lot of people may keep seeing wrong or outdated information for years. Most edits would not require more than a couple of reviewers, anyway.
Still waiting to see (and upgrade) edits (and now photos) in our queue....
Even though it's less than 10m, there's 2 places I'd really like to correct in my local area, and it's been over a year with no response.
