Exercise facility confused with a cemetery?
How could this be rejected?
"This nomination has been rejected due to the following reason(s):
Insufficient evidence that the nomination accurately reflects the submitted real-world location based on comparison of the submitted photo and map views, The real-world location of the nomination appears to be sensitive (e.g. non-historic or culturally significant gravestones or cemeteries), The real-world location of the nomination could not be confirmed to have an acceptable pedestrian pathway leading up to it."
It doesn't even remotely resemble a gravestone or cemetery. Sensitive location? Seriously?
"The real-world location of the nomination could not be confirmed to have an acceptable pedestrian pathway leading up to it."
Did the reviewer even look at the Google map location?
I realize now that I placed the pin location away from the building, but I can't see how this is a sensitive location nor do I see (as supported from the Google map above) a sidewalk lacking outside the gym. Any suggestions where I went wrong? Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.

The feedback system is imperfect. Misclicks and misunderstandings on the part of reviewers are common, albeit pointedly unhelpful, and you get every rejection reason given to the system, even if only one reviewer chose it.
The most important thing is you can recognize that the pin location was a valid cause of rejection.
Additionally, businesses in general are difficult to get approved, including ones such as gyms that are generally recognized as meeting at least one criteria (great place to exercise). Your description may need to specify why this gym offers cultural relevance; what makes it stand out in the community (though that all-‘murican signage might do all the talking for you).
1* rejection before even considering if its a valid candidate.
You put an ingame reference in the description.
People exercising in gyms are trainers. Might be witty, but the description is completely relevant.
Funny. But seriously, the words "Pokemon GO" need to be removed from the nomination. If there is a sign at the entrance to the car park, then I can see putting the pin there, otherwise it should be somewhere on or beside the building itself.
@AScarletSabre-PGO The "Pokemon GO" is in the supplemental information and isn't part of the nomination. It's also not what people are talking about. What they're talking about is that @Theisman-ING stated he would give it a 1* rating since it says "Trainers" in the wayspot description, not realizing "Trainers" doesn't refer to Pokemon GO players but rather the gym trainers.
Edit: Corrected the name, thanks @gazzas89-PGO
..... no he didn't, it was theisman that said that
Except it is a Pogo description, its written in exactly the same context as the support statement.
Also gym trainers is not the name for people who go to a gym to work out, a gym trainer would be reference to people working there, which then makes the description even more nonsensical.
Either way the description is either invalid for including a game reference, or invalid for being nonsense
You're right, my bad, corrected it.
It's worth mentioning that references to the game within the support statement are completely irrelevant, don't count as a rejection reason, and don't invalidate a submission. Only if a submission's title or description(or image) refer to the games, should they be rejected.
As for the "trainer" point, I would agree that you're correct. English is not my native tongue, and in several other languages I speak, "trainer" is the way to refer to some someone who goes to the gym, and I forgot that's not the case with English. In fact, other than "Gym-goer" which doesn't quite roll off the tongue, I'm not aware of any specific word to describe gym members, unlike other languages.
Well, theres personal trainers, even the gym staff are also known as trainers
I think you're either replying to the wrong comment, or need to re-read what was said. The discussion is about the name for people who train at a gym, not the ones providing guidance and offer help
I was pointing out that people could be called trainers in a gym. Tbh I don't k ow what people call them in the UK, but I wouldn't say gym goers
