Duplicate norminations worth a UPV
To tell a story, I enjoyed my precious campus life in a city 1500km away from home for 4 years. That is a beautiful city with a whole bunch of historical sites and all kinds of stones, curves, arts, whatever is worth a nomination. I spent many weekends across the allies and streets to discover those not so popular but interesting spots which shows what makes that city that city. And whenever I am inspired by some special site, I nominated it.
However, time flies. I had finished my undergraduate course and go elsewhere for my postgraduate course, and have finished again my postgraduate course and go again to another city.
The portal review is not very fast, many of my portals are nominated before the end of 2019 (or the start of that thing), and many of them are still in the pool. I acknowledge some of my photos are not so art but they are at least clear, bright, and no face included. However, I do being lagged behind other players who really love Ingress more than me. My portal nominations always duplicate with others' nominations (some of them are nominated by whom I know and I found these portals are nominated even later than me for 1 year or more).
Every time portal review feedback with an "Unfortunately" comes to my mailbox, I feel I lost a coin of my precious past time falling from my fingers into a deep hole, that I may not able to go back to that city to pick up them in the following several years, and sometimes, this means never.
How I wish I could leave something there, and I believe this emotion is shared with many other players who treasure their shining moment run into those treasured sites. Does it worth a UPV for those duplicated nominations?

Cool
Nice photo.
Also, a good idea.
Additionaly, one agent can only get one UPV from certain portal, so that rule will not be abused to get UPVs.
Good idea
I'm not sure what UPV is, but this seems like a post that goes better in General Discussion than Nomination Improvment. I think more people read that section anyway.
I think your issue is that you want credit (somehow) for nominations you made that were rejected as duplicates when they probably were first, but got stuck in the queue?
UPV is unique portal visit, means a player has visited a portal (like pok stop in PMG). Well I have to acknowledge that forgot wayfarer is a shared platform for not only ingress, so I may used a not so common expression.
There is an existing rule that a success nomination will count unique portal visit. So it is quiet reasonable for duplicate to be counted as well.
And I have to say please don't place such an accuse on me. Two of the comments come from someone who I know, because I shared this post in several Ingress communities. I don't feel good about being described as a multi-accounter. You know, it offenses basical game rules.
Fair enough. I'll edit it, but you do need to post in General Discussion since it isn't related to advice about improving nominations. I haven't seen much evidence Niantic reads these sections, though. Since you're concerned about an Ingress thing, you might have better luck posting in the Ingress forum. Maybe Niantic actually pays attention to posts there?
Thank you for your advise. That's true that posts here seems makes no difference. I will try to find out where to make this wish heard
