Hi,
I recently reported this wayspot as "permanently removed" (which was declined) because I couldn't find it in the area. But afterwards I eventually found it a few buildings away. So please move the wayspot to the right location or remove it.
Thank you!

Appeal Accepted- Thanks for the appeal, Trainer. Based on the evidence provided, we’ve moved the PokéStop/Gym to the correct location.
Hi!
Thank you for accepting the appeal!
The change is now finally visible in the game. The wayspot was moved to the correct spot but degraded from Gym to simple PokéStop. Is there a possibility to predict such behaviour or undo the degradation?
Which are the criteria for a PokéStop to turn to a Gym and back?
Thank you!

It is somewhat predictable. Gyms are located in S2 level 14 cells. The number of gyms depends on the number of pokestops within the cell. You probably moved the stop into another level 14 cell. Google will provide you with more info.
I suggest to search the original level 14 cell for eligible POI's, nominate them, hopefully receive an accept and thus create the number of stops needed for another arena.
I do not know which stop will turn into a gym, if it is random or oldest/newest first.
Thank you for the hint. I googled and found the IITC Mobile App.. created an Ingress Account and am now able to see the wayspots on a map together with those S2 cells (additional plugin needed for the app).
The wayspot, like you said, was moved out of the (level 14) cell by only a few meters. Another PokéStop took its place as Gym. I'll try to get the number of wayspots in the cell up to 20 to trigger another Gym now.
Thank you again for the insights!

Since a few updates, gyms can also get degraded just because of the move. So only move gyms when they stay in the same cell AND got the most Points in Ingress (Photos and Likes). Otherwise you will lose the gym and a new gym will come
Do you know if this is a temporary thing - so is this wanted or unwanted behavour?
I dont know, but first it got told, that this is a mistake. But id didint changed yet.
