I've submitted these signs around a nature trail before and they were all accepted. Why this one gets rejected?

Probably bad luck or reviewers couldn't confirm the location. Given that some regions, such as Germany, have taken advantage of a lack of Google Street Views and created a bunch of fake Wayspots nominations, reviewers are probably more cautious and are rejecting any nominations they cannot verify from satellite.
If this is one of many Information signs, maybe look for a weblink to a page which can verify its location. This is very helpful, especially for POIs in forrests.
If the POI is in a forest, then it can be impossible to confirm a location. Make a photosphere of this then resubmit.
All these nominations are similar information signs around same nature trail. Only one of them got rejected. It seems that reviews are purely arbitrary.
It happens sometimes. Especially in the woods where the location is hard /impossible to verify. If several people mistakenly put 1* for location, that alone can cause a rejection.
If I remember correct the photo was a bit blurry and I had to zoom really close to be certain it really was a "Kettuloukku" information sign.
i might have rejected as a low quality photo if there was anything else i couldn't verify about the submission. The new Criteria tab specifically mentions blurry photos under "Rejection Criteria:
Ineligible photo
Photo ...is blurry..."
If you resubmit, I would recommend you try to focus on the information, not the frame.
Strongly disagree. The frame is an important part of the object.
I had trouble reading the text, but that really, and I do mean really, isn't a reason for rejection.
It's not blurry to the point that the object, and the specific informational text, is unidentifiable.
