Add Location Category - More information needed

Is this new, and who votes on it? Is it decided by Niantic? I noticed I have 400 of these Location Category Edits to use. I don’t have any on Ingress yet. I assume this helps Pikmin Bloom and maybe future games?

I posted this in General Discussion and @MargariteDVille-ING suggested I post it on the AMA. I know it’s the last day tomorrow for votes so hopefully I can break into the 15 on this somehow.
