I think this is the full resolution photo. After I posted the screenshot here, I caught a glance of that thing in the far corner that might be a bench built into the retaining wall. but I certainly don't see any access in this photo. Or any park. But maybe a walking area if access was shown in the supporting.

lol you must not live in a place where nominations can stay "in-voting" for a year or so….
-
I do this all the time. The nomination is out of grace period for sure if it is already in voting, and will get a quick decision.
-
Are you selecting "Upgrade" or "Upgrade Next"? You can apply an Upgrade if you have one. If the button is grayed out, then you don't have an Upgrade to use. That error where you can't apply an "Upgrade Next" to an in-voting nom has existed ever since they brought back Upgrade Next after removing it when they gave us the…

Oh I think I see now, you mean NIANTIC should not feature bad showcase, not that WE shouldn't post them in the forums @rufoushumming-PGO I misread that the first time. Completely agree if this is what you meant.
-
Posting "sh1te showcases" is something I do. I am trying to let Niantic know what is being accepted, and with enough positive votes to get it featured. How else do you think the lack of education of reviewers should be conveyed?
-
correct. you will not see in your contributions page that it was moved. niantic reviewers can move pins they don't think are correct just like regular reviewers. i actually had niantic move the pin on a playground they reviewed of mine to on top of the equipment and i had to get help chat to move it back to the entrance…

This is a problem that a lot of submitters don't understand. When the prompt says "show the surrounding area," a lot of people will turn their backs to the thing they are nominating to show more of the area. Again, this is not a reason to reject, just check it out more closely as I described above.
-
You should not reject simply because the person used the same photo both places. However, this does make me check out the nomination further. I use google lens to see if the photograph was taken from someplace on the internet and that is why they only have the one photo. I also check Google Maps to see if the photo they…

I used to find this helpful: Hotspot Nomination Guide https://www.reddit.com/r/NianticWayfarer/wiki/hotspot However, with "generic business" being added back in, I can't get any businesses approved until I appeal them.

Have you tried Niantic Support Twitter? or X now i guess? they will sometimes start a direct message with me there.

They have a public invite at

So close …

I did read. And I explained why there is not a stop there, even though there is "something" there. I have also been let down by the toggle because the range is very small. I am not sure it even covers the entire area of the map it shows in the preview. But it does help. It looks like you edited the screenshot of it out of…
-
That toggle will help you not submit duplicates! Okay, those coordinates show a Wayspot exists for a mural there already, and it is a portal: There are two other portals in that same L17, so either Courthouse or Downtown Little Free Library is most likely a pokestop. But there could be other Wayspots within those black…
-
Is the one with more likes a showcase stop? Those normally won't turn into a gym if there are other options. (I have only ever heard one report of a showcase stop becoming a gym, and it wasn't something I have ever seen happen.)
-
If a Wayspot exists where it is pinned and doesn't show in Pokemon Go, then it was never going to show in Pokemon Go. One game did not "ruin" another. Whether a Wayspot will show in Pokemon Go has nothing to do with whether it is used in any other game. Google search "S2 cells and Pokemon Go" for an understanding of Pogo…

Hmm, my comment went away so pardon if this is a repeat, but the tooltip even calls memorials sensitive locations: Sensitive - funeral homes, burial grounds, cemeteries, memorials, plantations, political campaign offices, concentration camps, **** shelters, abortion clinics, domestic violence shelters, jails/prisons, bail…

The tooltip for Accuracy even states that memorials are sensitive locations: Sensitive - funeral homes, burial grounds, cemeteries, memorials, plantations, political campaign offices, concentration camps, **** shelters, abortion clinics, domestic violence shelters, jails/prisons, bail bonds places, and graveyards I have…

They also refused to do removals, and Aaron doubled down here that it isn't their job to do them. https://community.wayfarer.nianticlabs.com/discussion/comment/218258/#Comment_218258

When we review photo edits in Wayfarer, we cannot remove old photos, just accept new ones or not. If a photo is truly bad and should be removed, you can report to help chat. They have removed photos for me.
-
When I tried this previously, they refused to do anything and I had to come here and post in the appeals section. It has changed in that now it is a defined thing they will do.
-
Please read the tooltip for the Accuracy section. Memorials are "Sensitive" and should be rejected. When I try to copy and paste the tooltip wording here, my post doesn't post so this general comment may post three times after review. Or not.
-
if it is the same business that was approved, imo an edit is the correct way to go. if the in game edit is denied, you can now appeal to help chat https://community.wayfarer.nianticlabs.com/discussion/53443/introducing-edit-appeals-in-the-wayfarer-help-chat-discussion#latest if help chat still denies the edit then you can…

https://community.wayfarer.nianticlabs.com/discussion/53443/introducing-edit-appeals-in-the-wayfarer-help-chat-discussion#latest time to give help chat a workout!

Thank you!
-
I understand that the nomination screen reads like you are submitting a Pokestop for Pokemon Go when you nominate in that game, but you are actually submitting a Wayspot to the Lightship database. Your accepted Wayspot is included there. What they don't tell you is the rule for inclusion in Pokemon Go, which is being the…

I saw one last night and another this morning accepted by "our team" so I do think the machine learning ai can accept nominations now. We knew they were working on something with all those recent pulls into Niantic voting. No upgrade was used on the two I saw.

if i sounded sarcastic, i wasn't. i just want us all going by the same guidelines. getting rid of previous clarifications is just as effective as trying to find and post them all where everyone can access them. as many times as i have begged for clarifications, i had given up on the latter option.
