Hi, my stops always get rejected, which is very disapointing :/ in our little village we don‘t have stops which makes playling Hard. What can i do? I post some pics of them. There are 2 that i tried a few times. A Post Box (with a photo of the surroundings) and an information sign (also with surroundings). You can Walk there, there is no danger and everybody could play. They get rejected for reasons like „no kindergarden“, but it is no kindergarden.
(Sorry for the bad english :) )

Google translate is a little unclear, but that information sign seems to suggest that it and the playground are part of a kindergarten that still exists at the location, which would mean it was correctly rejected under the school rejection criteria. If there is no longer a kindergarten here, you'd have to make that very clear to reviewers.
A postbox doesn't really meet any criteria unless you happen to have an historic British one nearby.
Having looked the location up on Google Maps (and assuming I am indeed looking at the correct location), I then checked the Ingress Intel Map. The area you live in (again, assuming I'm looking at the right place) seems to be a bit bigger than a village and has around 30 wayspots in total, which isn't actually too bad, though I would guess there's a few that don't show up in Pokémon Go due to the level 17 S2 cell rules. There are a few by the church and a few by the welcome sign, as well as a few by the basketball court. The others are a bit spread out.
As for other things to submit in the area, do you have a pub that the locals go to? A town/village hall? A community centre? Trail markers?
Hi @H3ppY-PGO
I don't think the postbox is acceptable, it's only the UK that has that weird anomaly, the playground looks fine though depending on what the info says, sorry my German is non existent.
Maybe fix the picture a wee bit and get your description/support on point and they will go through?
C'mon, your German is good enough to read the word Kindergarten all through that nomination and then see there's a playground. Kindergarten is literally a German word that English adopted.
I saw that but I'm not sure what the rest of it says?
It may not be any more?
True, but the clues in the second photo make me think it's still an active Kindergarten. Gated, well-maintained playground, and at the end of the walkway, there's one of those plastic flag guys reminding people to drive slowly. Plus the reviewers marked it as K-12, so I think all the evidence points to it being an active Kindergarten and the submitter thinks that nominating the sign is not the same as nominating the actual Kindergarten. But the location is still K-12, IMO.
Most likely. I missed @HankWolfman-PGO 's follow up post.
Maybe the submitter will have something else to add or not.
Hey there, @H3ppY-PGO! We took another look at the 2 nominations in question and decided that they don't meet our criteria for acceptance at this time.
Thanks for helping us maintain the quality of the Wayspots.
@H3ppY-PGO Falls du möchtest... es gibt auch eine Deutsche Gruppe, nennt sich Wayfarer DACH auf Discord, telegram und Facebook. Kannst ja Mal da rein gehen wenn du mehr auf deutsch willst.
Briefkästen können nicht akzeptiert werden, sie sind sogenannte generische Infrastruktur; ein Objekt, das quasi nicht cool oder interessant genug ist, um akzeptiert zu werden.
Wenn die Tafel an dem Kindergartenzaun dran ist, kann es auch nicht akzeptiert werden, weil in der Liste der Ablehngründe Kindergärten als eigener Grund mit Schule zusammen drinsteht. Da ist es egal ob die Tafel außen dran ist, da wo Kinderbetreuung stattfindet, darf nichts sein.
