There are some nominations that are marked duplicate and it's not in Pokemon go. If I check in reason why it got rejected it says duplicate possible other game. If the spot it's not present in Pokemon go why it can't be added if it was accepted in other game?

Pokémon GO uses different rules for how many Wayspots can be in certain areas (cells) than other games. It’s worth checking on Ingress to see if the Wayspot already exists. When reviewers are reviewing they won’t be told which game they Wayspots nearby exist in. You’re nominating a Wayspot to be added to Lightship, which then may be added to Niantic titles. Not a PokéStop for one game.
This is the fault of the wording in the app. It should make it clear that you're not nominating a PokéStop, but a wayspot for the Lightship database, and that if you're lucky, it might also appear in PoGo.
Here comes the S2 sell rule for Pokemon go, only one PokeStop per S2 Level 17 cell while in ingress the S2 cells doesn't matter , it follows 20m rule. Hence i saw my own nomination appearing in ingress within 20 m radius of another portal (wayspot) . Maybe the 20 meter rule doesn't exist anymore. You may check the S2 Level 17 cells and make a plan for your nomination that's what we do in our local community .
The 20m rule no longer applies on Ingress.
Thanks for the confirmation. Any new distance rule for ingress or not?
Not as yet. There hasn’t been a sync for a few days but I’ve seen Portals accepted that are less than 1m away from another.
