Re: Appeal for Portails in Castle of Louvois
It must be safely accessible to pedestrians. It doesn't say that it needs to be accessible to everyone all the time, just that it needs a safe way to walk up to on foot. That's it. This has been the rule for as long as I remember and it has been confirmed to be the rule after the recent changes in criteria in the November… -
Re: Appeal for Portails in Castle of Louvois
Wayspots do not need to be accessible to all people or at all time. Nor are they prohibited from private property. The only property Wayspots are prohibited from is private single-family residential property. -
Re: Appeal for Portails in Castle of Louvois
First of all: this is a Wayfarer forum. Ingress factions are meaningless here and they have nothing to do with eligibility. Second: I find it completely impossible that this place is accessible to only one person. Looking at pictures, only maintenance staff for the building and the garden has to be at least 5 or 6 people,… -
Re: Appeal for Portails in Castle of Louvois
For those saying "Public access is not and has never been a requirement." : Ingress "how-to" submission for new portals (excuse my french). Portals MUST have an educative and cultural valor and their location MUST be safe and accessible to pedestrians. QED. -
Re: Appeal for Portails in Castle of Louvois
Also fake news. The English wording is "[...] locations should be safe and accessible to pedestrians." Since there is only a should and not a must your statement is worthless, since this allows access restrictions and conditions. How this should should be handled is explained in all the quoted AMAs, that show, that there… -
Re: Appeal for Portails in Castle of Louvois
@Blaumut-ING your faction have abused the exact same type of portal for years. Portal "Comme Un Poisson Dans L’eau" on a bank property only accessible by a res and those he pass through security. (https://intel.ingress.com/?pll=48.894099,2.179929) If niantic says that indeed those POI are invalid i'll be sure to link your… -
Re: Appeal for Portails in Castle of Louvois
I investigated and I realized that its portals were not accessible to the public because this castle is a private domain and closed to the public 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Unfortunately, this is not a requirement. The location mustn't be a residential residential property (K12 etc) but can be private otherwise. The… -
Re: Appeal for Portails in Castle of Louvois
1) The wayspot should match the actual location of the POI. From the pictures, nothing indicates they don't. If the locations were wrong, the correct course of action would be to suggest another location, not to delete them. But then again, they look perfectly fine unless you can prove otherwise. 2) It isn't, and as far as… -
Re: Appeal for Portails in Castle of Louvois
Have to disagree here regarding the US Winery. If it were a private residence for the family only then fine - PRP. However, as you mention, the public can visit the site by appointment. Excluding the arguments about "employee access", that immediately makes it accessible to "the public" in terms of Niantics guidelines. I… -
Re: Appeal for Portails in Castle of Louvois
Again from the November 2020 AMA: How does “publicly accessible” apply to locations that have limited access, like members-only clubs, gated communities, time-restricted areas? Just like with the definition of private residential property, this guideline hasn’t changed. These locations would still be eligible, including…
