Waypoint saturation?

It's from Hong Kong (and only a small part surrounding the new submit). I would rather review waypoint submits from areas needing waypoints than submits from this saturation. Btw this submit webpage took forever to load because of all the waypoints around it. Can a future wayfarer update allow us the option to review less saturated areas? Thanks for reading.

I get stuff from Disney all the time and it kinda looks like this. lol.
If not an update, its just a matter of setting your home and bonus locations to hopefully get some more rural areas.
My city also has "a few" POIs. It doesn't really need more, especially not in the center. But people in such POI dense areas normally "suffer" from a low wayfarer Priority. My city has a 3-year+-priority. All the nominations are probably upgraded, otherwise, they won't get reviewed.
Unfortunately you don't have any choice if any nomination from downtown Hong Kong is upgraded, I guess.
Saturated or not, these areas also contribute to the reviewing process, maybe even more so than rural areas. So it's not fair for saturated areas to review all the rural priorities and you not want to review these "saturated" upgrades that were justly earned.
Thanks. I understand what you mean by home location and bonus. However, Hong Kong is over 3000 km away from where I live plus it's not even my home/bonus location (both are in North America). I haven't played any Niantic games in Hong kong nor have I been to HK in over 20 years but its submits still show up for me to review. On top of that, it is saturated with waypoints which slow down the review page loading time (5-10 minutes in some cases) and difficult to review because many of the submits are indoors which I can't verify via the additional info or map images. Furthermore I'm not familiar with the area.
Absolutely. Folks who live in rural areas where things go fast don't need to review. It's the people in low-priority urban and (often very sparse) suburban areas who need to work their tails off to earn upgrades to get their submissions looked at. We all owe those folks a huge debt of gratitude and shouldn't begrudge them their submissions, no matter where they are.
You haven't shared your account with anyone? If not, I would look into changing your passwords pronto.
My question is why are you getting HK nominations to review when you haven't been there in 20 years.
You should set your account to reflect where you live. I know that the game isn't available in China so one wouldn't get nominations from there if that's where they lived.
Make your bonus location in like Zimbabwe.
They have like next to nothing over there.
I would love to see a picture of your in game map of Asia. SOunds like someone has been doing fly-bys without your knowledge of course.
Yes to making your bonus location Zimbabwe! Thanks to those of you that are helping with reviews in African countries! I am an American living in Harare, Zimbabwe. My husband and I are playing and nominating but it's been slow going and we have yet to see any of our nominations approved after over two years living here!
