Agreed!! Same issue here. What's the solution???
Its because of the new update. And honestly, donot cry because it takes more than a day. Before the big corona-wave in april, sometimes your nominations were in quere for like 6 months with upgrade..
That's normal for nominations to sit in Queue for several days to allow you to edit any misspellings, capitalization, grammar, or statements. This is to ensure that your nomination won't be marked low or rejected for errors and then you'll have to do it all over again.
Then it depends on other crowded nominations still in voting for that area. Woe to those who have an average nomination still floating around undecided until it pass or fails which could take forever.
Once in voting, your Upgrade will move way up the pipeline over others without the Upgrade.
Submitted my first nomination 2 months ago in Toronto, Canada and it's still "In Queue".
Is this normal or is it stuck?
Deepends. In my city, you need to wait at least a year
Yikes. In my city it rarely takes more than a week to get an approved/not approved (that's with upgrades, don't know what it's like without). Usually takes a day or two to get into voting.
My upgrades are not working. Anything with a upgrade attached to it is stagnant while others are moving behind it. I had a submission I attached an upgrade to that was in queue. It is still sitting in queue with that sane upgrade. The other submissions I have that were in queue have now gone into voting. The submission with an upgrade is still sitting there. Something is definitely broken here. @NianticCasey-ING - can you please look into this?
Maybe a lack of reviewers? My upgraded nomination vent into voting and got accepted in < 5 hours after 3 days in quere
thats quite normal. Not different here.
@LukeAllStars-PGO - I live in a high density area and all my upgrades that were in queue usually get reviews in only a few hours. This one has been stuck in voting and this is the only time it has happened. If the lack of reviewers were the true problem, then the other ones in queue wouldn’t have made it into voting. Any submission I have with an upgrade is stuck.
that's still in my 3000 inhabitant town normal. stuff can be for lots of months "in queue", and the status "in voting" needs then also more than 6 months .....
Supposedly, according to Niantic (somewhere in this forum, I'm not sure which thread at the moment) **Upgrades do not move your submission out of the queue faster**. Their purpose is just to show your submission to a much larger review area.
With that said, I've had submissions stuck in the queue for weeks- apply an upgrade, and they go into voting in a few days. It could be coincidence or an anomaly in the coding. In contrast, I've also watched upgraded submissions stay in queue until all other nominations have been decided.
It took me three years and three months to get approved without an upgrade.
It usually takes between a week and 10 days if use the upgrade.
Staying in queue thatong means there probably is already a nomination nearby in voting. The system typically waits until that one is resolved before advancing nor nominations within a certain radius. This is to avoid 2 points of interest that are the same being voted on at the same time and reaching a decision together and having 2 spots going live.
So if your area is taking a while to decide on other PoIs then it can take a while.
I would say that's not normal for a large city like Toronto. I'm from Sherbrooke QC, Canada, we are a much smaller city and all my submission from may until now takes usually about one week or two to reach final decision (less than five days for upgraded one). We have an active community of submitters and reviewers.
Try to submit somewhere else to see if the delay is related to that particular place with too much submission in queue.
You have it backwards on how Wayfarer works and prioritises submissions. Its not done on a FIFO or LIFO system.
The system, apparently, prioritises POI's in less dense areas of existing POI's over more dense areas.
So your much smaller city with less POI's in it would be a higher priority than Toronto, so even if the OP's submissions were done before you its likely that yours would be reviewed long before the OP's are.
The timescale you experience is entirely consistent with a small town, while the OP's large city experience is consistent as well.
All thats before even taking into account areas with "dead zones" where subs just vanish into the ether.
I also do submission in Montreal, which is pretty much similar to Toronto in density and the delays are the same.
But you're true saying that my experience timescale may not represent everything...
It varifies on the different lvl 6 s2 cells. Also on the number of existing POIs and active reviewers.
Hey,
I nominated several the other day. I began before the Coronavirus arrived in the state in which I live. I do not live on the coast. Otherwise, I will be no more specific. 4 days is nothing. Around half of my nominations are accepted or marked as duplicates. I update pictures too. Once the nomination goes into voting, we either accept or reject. After we have a chance to review, the Ingress community has a chance. I am not familiar with the second part yet. If the nomination is approved again, Niantic has an algorithm to determine if the nomination is a duplicate, accepted, or rejected. Since I only enjoy the games and review, I cannot type more than what I just did. More happens than what we usually know.
i have upgraded my last since 2020-08-18
and still not review, cmon whats going on ? i doubt everyone in my region stopped review or ??? this is so frustrating waiting months for review....
like before it was normal within 1 week get a reply, now over 2 months upgrade nothing happens ? this is not normal same with banner submissions people wait for months and nothing happens.....
Zdravím. Už od 6.června mám nominace v hlasování a jednu ve frontě.Nic se neděje a vy si tu stěžujete, když se jedná o pár dní
system is congested. think of eating too much pumpkin pie.
Good Day ,
My upgraded nomination is stuck already 3 1/2 days in a queue despite upgraded.
Usually , as per past experience , once upgraded goes straight in to voting, however this one seems stuck.
Nominated on 9/12/2020 , upgraded 10/12/2020.

Newly submittted and instantly upgraded nomionations normally need a little longer. 3 1/2 days is nothing I would worry about.
Will be patient then, thanks!A kind of new experience, never happen before, true that all previous had at least week time difference between nomination and upgrade,and did went straight into voting.Any idea,estimation, how long will take to go into voting?
Normally, new submissions need between 5 and 7 days. But it can also be longer.
Hi,
my proposal for a new POI has been in the voting since April 2020, although it has received an upgrade. My boyfriend submitted it again and it was approved in 2 days.
Can I please withdraw the proposal and get the upgrade for another POI?
Thank you!
KR, Lindapinki
Today I upgraded a stop and some hours later I upgraded another stop. So normally my first stop should go in the voting but now nothing happen. Is this a bug or should I wait more? My last upgrades did go in the same time in vote and accepted after some hours. Both are still in queue
I added a nominations and its stop in the queue for 4+ weeks is I even upgraded it and it’s still stuck how can I fix this ? I’m level 38 does that matter ?
