Gym Removal

In my local area there are so many graffities, and they usually get promoted to wayspots, but there are sometimes that the graffiti gets removed.
What happens if this happens in a gym?
It dissappears like a pokestop or another pokestop in the area gets promoted to Gym?
In this case there is some sort of way to promote a church/permanent wayspost instead of another graffiti that is going to be removed like the old gym?
I've read that boosting the pokestop could potentially make it likely to be the one promoted
Thank you for your time.

Whilst Wayspot removal is relevant to Wayfarer, what is and isn’t a gym in one game is not.
If a Wayspot is removed and the area no longer meets the rules for having a gym, I believe they get downgraded but I’m not up to date with the game actions for Pokémon GO in relation to that.
You’re better asking in the app or on r/TheSilphRoad and similar.
@PkmnTrainerJ-ING thank you for your time
Hi, if a gym is removed, the stop with the biggest combination of likes+photos gets promoted to a gym
Says who?
And what do you mean by likes? I didn't know you could like a stop.
It’s based on thousands of wayfarers observations of gym creation, but it’s not official. You thumbs up the photos by clicking the pokestops, then top right arrow, then photos bottom right
Ah, I actually knew that, I just thought you voted for what photo would show on the disc.
I get smarter all the time 😁
