Submission Voted as Duplicate after first attempt had bad photo

Hello,
So I submitted a nomination for my church, and I’ve run into an odd one. The initial one was rejected because of a poor photo (in hindsight, I agree.. it was mediocre). So I submitted a new version with a better photo, and now that one has been labeled as a duplicate.
Is there something I should have done differently? I’m still relatively new to submitting, and I’d like to get it right.
Thanks in advance!

As there is a waypoint for the church - based on the sign on the road, it could well be that it was marked as duplicate with that. Next time you are there click on the photo and if it says 2 photos click on that and if yours is there that will be what happened
Photos are not adding in Ingress so I can't check if the extra photo is there, but I think I would have marked this nomination as a duplicate of https://intel.ingress.com/?pll=38.991696,-104.79508 based on the photo I see for "Worship Center" there.
If this is not actually a duplicate, you can ask to have the incorrect photo removed in https://community.wayfarer.nianticlabs.com/categories/wayspot-photo
If you resubmit, you are going to have to do an incredible job explaining how this is a separate point of interest for the church.
Hmm. The sign doesn’t exist in Pokemon Go; is it common for a waypoint to exist that is a good distance away from another and it not be in one of the games?
I see. That’s helpful. “Worship Center” is one of the rooms in the church, but there isn’t a stop for the church itself in Pokémon. Plus that one is on the side of the building that is no longer used for entrance.
So am I safe to assume that rejected submissions do not conflict with ones in active voting? When this was duplicated, I initially thought that was the problem.
Thank you both for your help on this. I appreciate it.
Right rejected submissions do not conflict with ones in active voting. Reviewers will not see that your photo was added to a different Wayspot - unless it gets upvoted and becomes the main photo.
