We are trying something - not sure it will work, but we are attempting to address translation issues. And when I say "we", I mean that the ambos are serving as advisors on this. We can't make any real implementation changes. If we can find solutions that are easy to implement, we recommend those and how they can bring…

We've been playing around in a test environment for a few days on the new forum platform. It is different, but you'll get the hang of it. My biggest advice is to engage with the automated onboarding. It will walk you through some pretty basic things that are not terribly obvious but that really help you get oriented to the…

I think you have lofty ideas for how communication wholistically should work between Niantic and the community. Let me bring you back down to earth by asking if you think Vanilla (the host of these forums) was the reason Niantic doesn't have good communication? Because that's primarily what is changing. We are going from…

A wider picture of a rock is still a picture of a rock. Rocks typically aren't eligible.
-
What kinds of changes would you like to see as "improvements?" I'm not making any promises those can happen, but I'm curious what you want.

Parking spaces are private property. They can absolutely ask you to leave and involve the police to trespass you off the property if you refuse to comply. But why let it proceed to that? There's a first time for everything. But now that these raiders know the property owner is concerned about their parking spaces being…

Yes, I find often find that waving, and saying something like, "I just stopped to use my phone, I'll be gone in a second" helps assuage people's suspicions. I mean, they don't want you to use your phone while driving - so that means having to pull over at safe places to attend to things, right? As long as you don't have…

I see nothing wrong with that title and description. I don't think it is an absolute rule that every wayspot title must be unique. I understand that we want them to be unique and we are told that it's best practice for them to be unique. But if you look at Niantic's own practice with sponsored POI (I'm only familiar with…

LDS is the right acronym. They mostly don't like the word Mormon. LDS stands for Later Day Saints, which is how they refer to themselves.

Again, this is not a Wayfarer issue. This is a Pokemon GO issue.
-
This is not a Wayfarer issue. This is a game decision by PoKemon GO. No one here can make this change.
-
Tell that to my neighbors who have bothered me multiple times for being in a legal parking space (sometimes in front of my unit, sometimes 3 buildings down) while sitting in my car to do a raid at a gym that is on shared land in our multifamily development. A couple of times, I was sitting in my car listening to music and…

Please tell me which criteria these meet: -socialize -exercise -explore

We can't really say if we're having the same problem without seeing examples of what you're nominating and what rejection reasons each one has.
-
The situation you described is unfortunately a common one when there's only one person submitting and reviewing in an area. It's something we have discussed with Niantic. I have no idea where it is on their priority list to address.
-
"Using inside access" is pure speculation. If there is a pattern of something weird going on, then I would recommend someone looking into it. But for one single POI? No, that doesn't need an investigation.
-
You may be getting edits because there are no other nominations to review.
-
I don't know and to be honest, this isn't really something we need to chase down to fix. I know it might seem like an issue for you, but in the grand scheme of things the Wayfarer team needs to focus on bigger problems.
-
Can you click on it in either Ingress or PGO to see the age of the photo for the one that exists? Did you see yours live in a game for a fact or did you just get the approval message in Wayfarer? Sometimes 2 people nominate the same thing and one goes live barely ahead of the other but the person who was 2nd doesn't…
-
Even I have heard of the famous deer in Richmond Park. I'd want to see that one in game/on the map.
-
We yell at them every day. I mean, we dialog with them in a respectful manner on a daily basis.
-
Would you like to share the final product for others to see how adapting their nomination leads to a good outcome?
-
Some things don't need thoughtful feedback. This is a generic business that meets none of the criteria.
-
What you wrote does not make sense to me. Wayfarer usually doesn't take local laws into account when it comes to rights of way. We follow the advice put out by Niantic - if the property is single family residential (or farm), it doesn't matter how old it is - it is not eligible. That includes the wall along the edge of the…
-
Did you include an emoji or some kind of special character in the title or description? That's a no-no. But also, I didn't see the table in the second photo (I didn't look at the photo for long), so I'm not sure that I would know where it was located if I was reviewing it.
-
I also struggle with the idea that every building on campus is automatically eligible. But I think this person has put a little bit more effort into explaining how this meets the explore criteria - the way "learning" meets explore - than most people who nominate on campuses. Most of them just nominate and give no…
-
These are precisely what I would use Generic Business for.
-
Ok, here's where I think there's a disconnect in your thinking. For indoor nominations, we need to know: 1) is this real 2) is the pin on the POI So far, most of your evidence proves that what you are submitting is real. But to prove that the pin is accurate, you need to look at the location on Google maps. What can *you*…
-
Yeah, I think we are also dancing around the topic that this is probably on single family residential property. Plus, that's not any kind of art I'd send visitors to see.
-
OK, let's keep the discussion on track and not about how individual game players may or may not behave, thanks!
