Frankly I'm still suspicious because you haven't shown any screenshots of what your nominations actually look like, only the photos used and a loose description of what your text was.
-
Did you take all of those photos yourself?
-
Sir this is a Wendy's
-
When PoGO first launched, every single Pokestop and Gym came from Ingress. The people who submitted these Portals (with the exception of imports) probably didn't care about other games either, but here we are. Think of this as returning the favor
-
Sorry if someone already said this, but the Wayfarer challenges still have a bit of a publicity issue. The new banner is definitely an improvement, however I still saw a number of people on Reddit, Discord, etc who were asking why they were reviewing nominations from Spain. Perhaps you could send out an email to all…
-
Hooray for the Ambassadors!!
-
It takes two minutes to load each review and most of them aren't even from Spain. Looks like I won't be able to get to 500 reviews. ☹️
-
You mean you nominated a Wayspot 21 days ago, or your Wayspot was accepted 21 days ago?

Earn 100 agreements from reviewing other people's submissions and you'll get an Upgrade, which can be used to speed up one of your nominations. That, or convince more of your local players to review
-
I'm not sure what your question is, but I think we need more context
-
Go to the criteria page on the Wayfarer website and read through the criteria for titles and descriptions
-
Where is this playground located?
-
Badges, rankings, leaderboards, stats by country, etc...

Some people have different opinions on cemetery nominations, but for me personally I have two criteria: they must be easily accessible without stepping on sensitive ground, and they have to hold significance to a large group of people (not just the relatives of someone who's buried there).
-
Random statues in a graveyard should be rejected. The rejection criteria includes: Sensitive locations like gravestones (not associated with a significant/historical figure) and cemeteries That's what "Location Sensitive" means. You also cannot base your nominations on existing Pokestops. If you look at the photos on some…
-
If the current location is correct, you'd have a hard time convincing reviewers to move it somewhere else unfortunately.

I have never seen a single instance of K-12 basketball submissions getting pulled by Niantic. I submitted one where I tagged it as "basketball court," included words like "elementary school" and "basketball" in the description, and the school itself was tagged as such in OSM. Never went into Niantic review, and was…
-
@NianticAaron according to your team, Niantic should be reviewing all basketball courts on school property. @00xKenshi-PGO is simply asking for your team to follow through on their statement, without having to waste an appeal on something that should be accepted. Not only that, but several people have reported that their…

If you want businesses to get approved, you have to use your text to explain in detail 1) how it meets the criteria as a good place to explore, socialize, or exercise, and 2) what sets it apart from any other business.
-
The first nomination is a mass-produced road sign, and is not intended for pedestrians. I agree with the reviewers on this one. For the second nomination, you put zero effort into your description, so there's no way for reviewers to tell if it's a good place to socialize or explore. Your supporting text also doesn't tell…
-
Also, it looks like you missed this part of the acceptance email: Remember that not all accepted nominations will appear in all Niantic games
-
Your Wayspot cannot appear as a Pokestop because it shares a cell with Exercise corner, Sheltered area, and Mini rock climbing playground. Looks like Elijustrying beat me to it. They gave a much better explanation anyway
-
Please post screenshots of some of your nominations so we can give you better advice on improving them
-
Niantic does this on purpose so that people don't auto-approve all nominations from their hometown. Also, the review infrastructure will tend to show you more reviews from "rural" areas while "urban" areas get moved to the back of the line. It's possible your area is considered urban while the surrounding areas get rural…
-
I think part of the problem is that apparently nobody knows what "Location Inappropriate" actually means. Location is an adult-oriented store or service, such as a liquor store, **** range, firearm store, or provides **** and/or pornographic content
-
Appeals are a hot mess right now. I just had an appeal I made in July 2022 get accepted. Niantic seems to be randomly drawing nominations from both sides of the queue, but they're skipping quite a few of them
-
You're one of the lucky ones. There are lots of people with appeals from August of last year that they haven't heard anything about. There is a massive backlog right now, and increasing the amount of appeals would only make things worse. Maybe in a couple of years, once they've finally sorted out the backlog, we'll get…
-
There's a bug currently affecting some people where for whatever reason, their nomination gets moved to the location of another existing Wayspot, so the two are right on top of each other. If you think this may be the case, I would definitely DM one of the ambassadors about it, since they're investigating the issue at the…
