Hi! My wayspot was accepted 4 days ago and it’s still not showing up in Pokemon Go and Ingress. Will it show up soon or it won’t? Thanks

Have you read this?
hello and welcome @instagramvellty-PGO
if you can provide the title and the co ordinates of the wayspot we can check
It’s possible for it not to meet the inclusion rules for either game and show up only in the Lightship database.
Yeah, but this wayspot is not even in Ingress:( They say it’s used in other Niantic games but what games if not in Pokemon Go or Ingress…
They are all used as postcards in Pikmin Bloom and may be saved for other games. As said, it’s possible for it not to be used for any current games.
Do you think that the Wayspot isn’t a pokestop because I placed a pin to close to another waystop (which is a pokestop)?
Pokémon GO’s inclusion rules use cells. If it’s in a different one, it could be 1m away and still be a PokéStop. If you share the location, people will be able to check and tell you why.
I've not slept so I can't be bothered doing a visual demonstration of cells and stuff today. If you want to help out by providing such things, the wayspot is located at 51.918798,19.581004
Thank you. Go to bed. 💤
For you @instagramvellty-PGO please see below.
The Lightship database has all the nominated Wayspots in and you can see yours there. (Screenshot from Wayfarer app - in beta and for developers and Ambassadors use only currently)
Game inclusion rules apply however to sync to the games and as you can see below.
Your nomination is not in Ingress (screenshot from IITC - app uses Ingress Intel map).
Pokémon GO allows one PokéStop per S2 L17 cell (this square highlighted) and for Ingress, new Portals must be 20m away from existing Portals, it does not care about cells.
For your nomination, it does not meet the inclusion rules for Ingress or Pokémon GO so does not show in either. It is in the database though so any repeated nominations would be correctly marked as Duplicates.
Okay, thanks.
Can you tell me one more thing? Everyday in bigger city I see many pokestops next to eachother (ex. on picture). Why is that allowed and how is that even possible?
The ones grouped together are likely as a result of abuse and no longer possible. Areas like that are under review
