Tweet "Nominations may contain links in the supporting information section to help reviewers judge accurately. Do not reject nomination for "URL or Markup" if the links are only in the supporting section and not the Title or Description." Anyone want to guess what happened to my upgraded tennis court nomination yesterday?
-
Niantic has said in both the September and December 2021 ama posts that a low score in this category cannot cause a rejection. However, people continue to get "not historically or culturally significant" as a rejection reason. Smarter folks than me have noticed that when a nomination gets this rejection reason, there is…

Sorry if this is a double tag @NianticGiffard but in the past you didn't see tags in the body of my post until someone tagged you in the comments.

Got four more trail markers for the disc golf course and one more footbridge title edit from this area yesterday. Got more trail markers today. No reply from the park so I am wondering if my email went anywhere. No reply from Niantic either. I am not angry with the person nominating these. There is no clarification that…

It doesn't impact rating right now? Please don't have rejected nominations hurt Wayfarer rating. I think you will see from doing appeals that many excellent (or at least acceptable) nominations are rejected, and a lot of them several times, before going through as they should have in the first place. Even if reviewers…

I recently got this nomination. I used Google Translate to make sure it didn't say anything ineligible. I accepted it, but it is going to be impossible to enter that into out local data base. We can't input those characters. I assume someone will edit it if it goes live. If it was anything more nuanced than a playground, I…

the playground Speeltuin Vastertlanden is an ingress portal https://intel.ingress.com/?pll=52.194571,6.902931 but because it is in the same L17 S2 cell as De roode Haan https://intel.ingress.com/?pll=52.194635,6.902439 only one of those two Wayspots can show up in Pokemon Go
-
@sogNinjaman-ING thanks for pulling that up. I know that, but it's trail markers and footbridges in the course that are showing up in game. I got four more of the trail markers reviewing today and two edits for footbridge titles there. I followed @Shilfiell-ING 's advice and looked up the parks and rec for the area and…

Thank you for providing the reason for this clarification. I can understand a guideline of not linking to a social media account. And thank you for the further clarification: Just to make you really, really sure: Artwork painted by Mr Spraypaint. = acceptable Artwork painted by @MrSpraypaint" = not acceptable Sorry to…

Um - does that mean that Instagram tags are not allowed? Or does that mean no action was needed?
-
This doesn't answer your original question, but I would report that through the help chat feature. My photos accepted from Pokemon Go seem to be adding correctly at the next sync, but my photos accepted from Ingress are not being added to the Wayspot.
-
I hit enter before I meant to on this post - the original report was dated Sunday, January 9, 2022 and my follow up was submitted Jan 23. I was confused about the timing because the last date I can find in the help chat was Jan 12, but I was certain much more time had passed than that. I searched and found where I made a…

A forum comment by NinaticGiffard states even small trail markers are encouraged Wayspots as they keep people moving along the trail: https://community.wayfarer.nianticlabs.com/discussion/comment/111955#Comment_111955 I find that including that statement in my supporting information helps trail markers go through that were…

my last comments about the fact that we should be able to withdraw in voting are valid, but i can find no documented evidence that i used to be able to withdraw in voting submissions. everything i posted about withdrawing when someone else reported seeing it live on my local discord was still in queue. but that doesn't…

You can report this through the Wayfarer Help Chat
-
It did not used to be this way. I have felt the angst of having to decide whether to leave my much better photo in voting to have it added to the wayspot, or be conscientious to try to reduce the backlog by withdrawing my nomination that was now a duplicate. I hate when Niantic just updates information to current standards…
-
If you go to the church and try to make another nomination from there, you will see if it is in game if you have the duplicates check feature in your country. If you don't have that feature, then I suggest you download Ingress, and look at that map to see if it went live in that game. LukeAllStars gave you all the reasons…
-
I am looking at my current message which is : You have 36 Portal nominations available today. 1 more Portal nominations will be added tomorrow. That message should read: You have 36 Wayspot nominations available today. 1 more Wayspot nomination will be added tomorrow. Then the 40 max message could go from there: You have…
-
Definitely read Hosette's guide. A lot of folks who tell me they that "everything is denied" are submitting random things where they want to have a portal or pokestop/gym, not going out and finding things that would make good Wayspots. And when you submit, remember it is a Wayspot for all Niantic games that you are…

I had a nomination marked as fake nomination abuse (falsely) and nothing happened to me. I have actually appealed that one. I think sogNinhaman is correct about the unfortunate floating table effect in the nomination photo, and then not including the table in the supporting photo. A red flag for photoshopped nominations is…
-
Aha! This was pointed out to me on Discord - is that you @Selner-ING ? - that @NianticGiffard had already clarified this issue that apartment pools are NOT eligible - so that is how I will vote (and continue to not get agreements) https://community.wayfarer.nianticlabs.com/discussion/comment/51200#Comment_51200 "Tricky one…

@NianticGiffard we keep having rejections for "not historically or culturally significant" when the last ama said this could not happen. can you let us know what is happening with these?
-
I have never had this issue before now. I live in North Carolina (United States) and never travel any further than Myrtle Beach, South Carolina. But I am suddenly getting reviews from Puerto Rico, Mexico, and California in Spanish. All I remember from my Spanish class is "Yo tomo una cerveza fria," which isn't very useful.…
-
Oh, just looked - my "portals discovered stat" went up by one as well. I had given up on taking daily screenshots of my stats assuming this would never be fixed. My "unique portals visited" is up by four from the last time I took a screenshot, but I think that is from visiting them in person. Will start taking screenshots…
-
I think the problem may have been that you thought it would easily pass. Your supporting information should tell reviewers who are not familiar with the area why this meets any or all of the three criteria: exercise, exploration, and being social. As an objective reviewer, I don't see anything about that sign that is…
-
I completely agree with you - no tags is in criteria - but was having a discussion that the Instagram tag IS the artist's signature now, especially on murals, so I wanted a ruling.
-
I use the Google Street View app to make photospheres - it's pretty easy if I can do it.
-
I don't like random numbers assigned to anything. I use directions and/or what is nearby to create a title. Examples: I don't usually reject for submitter assigned numbers, though.
-
I am not sure when you did this edit. Pokestops have to sync into the game. It normally happens between 2-2:30pm for me on EST if you want to convert that to your local time. If the Ingress portal showed up yesterday, the Pokestop will most likely show up today. Ingress sync is around 6-6:30 here. Pokemon Go sync was a bit…

My photo comments will have to undergo approval, but I have to judge each marker independently. I have both accepted and rejected colored discs nailed to a tree. I have accepted painted marks, but way less of them. Does it help the hiker follow the trail? If so, then it is a marker. I don't like the submitter randomly…
