Yes or No: Neighborhood Entrance Sign

I have some memory of these nominations as generally not significant enough for waypoints. If this is determined by something "visually unique" what is that metric and how is that exactly determined?
I have tried to look through the documentation on the Wayfarer help and searched on the forum, but nothing has seemed to have popped up to be clear or definitive on this criteria. I am inclined to decline these, but I'd like to have more substantial than "I think not" when I decline. Does anyone have any reference to criteria related to neighborhood entrance signs/displays?

The old OPR action guide had this to say:
"Apartment/Development Sign. Suggested vote: 1* REJECT. ACCEPT if historic or has some significance".

You'd have to share some pictures or examples. Almost all I see in review are ineligible. They'd have to be artistic in some way or tied to a historical location.
Ones that act as trail markers on a named trail may eligible, but not simply generic ones on the side of a road.

Neighborhood/subdivision/community/city signs are not eligible unless they are historically or culturally significant.
I've passed a couple of hand carved and hand painted village signs that depicted the village history, but I can honestly say over 90% of signs I've had to review in no way meet the historical/cultural criteria.
