I am constantly nominating a Cafe near me and it's being rejected. It is a really nice place to socialize and it should be a way point as it will drastically improve player experience. Plz clarify
Comments
I will be nominating it constantly as it a solid POI and very much eligible to become a pokestop ! Really disappointing to see reviewers reject such a good way point ! Not happy as the rejection is fake , rigged and not logical
Can you send photos of your nomination. Maybe we can help Improve your nomination
Im not able to here
Really sorry for that
But i assure u..it's a 100% valid poi ! It is a very popular cafe in the local area and a really great place to socialize with others. I gave a very good quality main photo and supporting photo ! Made clear why it's a good poi ! But reviewers are butchering it
Plz help
Plz solve my query
You can. However, photos need moderator approval. So you might need to wait a bit until they appear.
thank you sir/ma'am. But may i get a valid reason for the constant rejection of my poi (taking in acc that everything meets criteria).
I feel that the reviewers are butchering it
Plz view this
We will also need to see your title, description and supporting information. Cafes are not inherently eligible and needs some effort to "sale" the nomination to reviewers. This, of course, requires you to provide supporting evidence that it is a popular cafe or a local hangout.
Title : The Bluffin Muffin Cafe
Description :The Bluffin Muffin Cafe is a local hotspot. It is very popular cafe where the local people and the youth socialize and have fun.
Supporting Info : This Cafe is very popular in the local area. It is a great place where the local people and the youth have fun and socialize.
Evidence to prove that it is a good and popular cafe :

Plz check the websites links that i have provided. In it u will get the reviews of the Cafe {given by the locals}..which indicates that many people visit this area and it's a gud suggestion for a waypoint.
I have nominated this cafe thrice..each time it got rejected. Reasons were :
1.Bad Photo {Come-on man..it's super clear !}
2.Doesnt have safe pedestrian Access {Come-on..it's a cafe..it obviously has to have safe access}
3.Other Rejection Criteria {Come-on..after the reviewers ran otta reasons..this was their choice}
---IT'S RIDICULOUS---
Plz reply sir/ma'am
Plz reply
Is anyone gonna reply man ?
You're posting in a section of the forum that was designated for a specific event that occurred nearly a year ago. Not many people will actually be checking this part of the forum as a result.
If you want help to improve your nomination, I suggest you post in the nomination improvement advice section of the forum instead, which I'll link to below. More people will actually see your post there (though this is a forum, so don't expect instant replies).
You're right it is eligible according to me. Safe Pedestrian Access is not a thing to worry(70% accessible) in India. Can someone tell Niantic that Footpaths literally don't exist in India everywhere?
For one I can tell everyone just want quick upgrade, they want easy to review nominations like temples, statue, artwork..
As you all might also have noticed we don't have many pokestops/portals like cafe, hotel, locally unique shops, plaque of street etc..
If only one could do thorough research on Search engine, Street view, and maps these places will definitely get verified..
I Reject places which have face, people, licence plate, third party photo, no pedestrian footpath etc..
And we should accept that we have good amount of people in every area so its little hard to click photo without breaking nomination criteria..
Out of 210k Nominations only 4.1k was accepted in India.. Very sad situation..
Let's try our best to create safe and good POI for our explorers..
Your nomination seems acceptable but try to provide proper supporting image of wide angle... (But still many will reject that too because supporting image consist of licence plate :sad:)
