Would you accept this as a eligible viewpoint?
Next to the Royal Observatory on Blackford Hill, Edinburgh.
Edinburgh Castle in the centre, St Giles Cathedral and the old town on the right.
Support pic would include the above with Arthur's Seat, Port of Leith, Edinburgh's many church spires, in the distance Firth of Forth and the Kingdom of Fife.
Above is not support or description but just generally accept or decline?
Comments
I would.
I would also make sure the supporting says something like "The bench is being used as the physical waypoint for the View. The view is what makes this explore worthy and something people could travel to to see."
That is a wonderful view and I do think this would make for a valid viewpoint wayspot.
It does make me feel a little bit sad though. I miss Edinburgh. Not been up there in years now.
Wayfarer roadtrip to Edinburgh required 😎
I like it but suspect a 50:50 chance, so worth a shot.
Thought I would add a couple of links at the end without really looking at the url...
Wow great spot in my opinion, is there public and an easily accessible path to it?
There is. It was pulled into Niantic voting for my www.D*ckson.co.uk link at the end of support though
If only it was that simple. I don't drive, it's hard to get spare time these days (and spare money for that matter), and on a personal note I have an ex up in that area who I would much rather avoid if at all possible haha.
That aside though, Edinburgh is beautiful and does hold several happy memories for me, including Princes Street Gardens being the location of my first ever Dragonite catch in Pokémon Go back in August 2016 :)
Should probably talk about something else though as that kinda talk will get the thread closed for being off topic 😂
Hopefully they give it the thumbs up. I would be incredibly disappointed in them if they don't.
Welp...
Sigh.
Appeal?
l’m not currently reviewing, hopefully I will be back soon and be able to help restore some balance.
That was Niantic voting. I had added this link at the end of support not realising it would get caught in the word filter
Rolls eyes and sighs very heavily.
@The26thDoctor-PGO
Just to cheer you up.
It was a corner shop bakery but unfortunately now it is PRP
That's great! Hopefully it stays, I've seen a few disappear recently :(
In tempted to submit this to see how difficult it is to get a view through :D
A these are the sort of challenges I can understand 🤪
Correct me if I'm wrong but you are expecting these to be pulled into Nia voting then rejected?
I'd like them not to be, but yes I suspect they might
Thanks. I'll update when they change.
Hello The26thDoctor,
