It was also upgraded...
a dot rejection as well, will niantic re-evaluate these nominations ?🤔
I contacted the support as well because I would like to know the reasons why the nominations were not accepted so I could tweak the picture, name/description or support information, and I got this "very useful" reply from the support.
If those reviews are really made by Niantic, they would do a really bad job. Like this post shows, there are way too many good candidates rejected.
Let's see, what @NianticGiffard can find out... crossing fingers.
I hope that’s not the case, and if so it seems odd, as some reviews sit in the queue for years to get enough votes.
Yes but from my experience they later improved it whilst including some duplication mistakes. Hopefully things get better overtime fingers crossed.
I can see this thread is now updated as “Working on a fix”. Should we resubmit POI that’s been rejected or will these be looked at by Niantic?
I am 99% sure that they will be resubmitted, Niantic never looks over not-accepted-POIs.
That’s fine. It’s not an issue for me to resubmit mine as did it on remote via Ingress, so just a case of matching up photo location
Maybe they will again give us our Upgrades back.
Oh so it wasn't just me. I was wondering if it was because a different category got a 1* or something.
Any update on this issue? @NianticGiffard
Hi there! Our team is actively working on it and you can expect a resolution pretty soon.
Will it come with an explanation for each previously rejected "." nomination?
Good to know it’s being worked on.
Hi Giffard. Is this pretty Soon for everyone else or pretty Soon™️ for Niantic?
... Any word on this issue? Remember it got raised back in January and we're still waiting for more info on it.
Just bringing it up again...
Any update to this? Why were nominations rejected with "." and that does that mean?
Hey there! There was a bug that was causing this issue to occur however we had found out the root cause and fixed it from our end. Meanwhile, I will keep my eyes peeled for future reports regarding this issue if there are any.
Is it true that these "." rejections were Niantic Wayfarer team reviewed nominations?
What actually caused it and what should the emails have said?
I had this happen today. The nomination is as close to a dead cert as you can get, award winning public art visible on street view. I didn't even know it had gone into voting, London submissions take over a year, and this has only been in two months. It was not "in voting" last week.
Rejected with a no reason, not even a "does not meet acceptance criteria" reason. Nomination ID: O4+WDfgzQi/mo00vLXYIrRzf/ctvR2EYWkGG7j0i/Zc=
I had the same yesterday. Thanks for flushing my contributions down the toilet after like 11 months of queue and voting without any progress. I'm already used to wrongful rejections and I could imagine there would have been one which reviewers might have (incorrectly) selected, but this kind of meddling takes my frustration to a whole new level, to be honest. You could at least give me an extra upgrade for this, so I could resubmit it as soon as possible without losing two more years or so (not an exaggeration in my case) to get a decision.
PS: If it helps: Nomination ID: ClCAyV9fiveFg4CO0xR2FQpnjOMoa68XqNVb3uHoaBY=
It’s difficult for us to recommend that anyone bother nominating anything to Wayfarer if Niantic is going to pull this kind of capricious stunt.
Nominations should never be frozen in amber for two, three, or more years. Niantic’s system should not rob people multiple times of their hard work or resources, nor should it reject high quality nominations.
Killing-off a great candidate without explanation like this is heinous.
@NianticGiffard My friend just got one of these blank emails. Is this not resolved yet!? It was in voting less than a week which is very unusual since they are typically taking over a year in my area.
Perfectly good mural?
That's a great piece that should have been accepted. I find it hard to believe that reviewers rejected these, did they go into voting at all?
This is clearly not a resolved issue. @NianticGiffard, should we open a new thread of these, or continue posting here?
