Re: Why aren't appeals being used as a way to identify, evaluate, and educate poor reviewers?
I completely agree that automatic punishments would have issues, however there are a lot of cases where people just blatantly did not review correctly. The frequency of this I'm sure varies greatly between different rejection reasons. For example, I recently had a nomination rejected for "URL" when the only URL in the… -
Re: So what advice would you give to “New Reviewers/Submitters” in your area.
1) Check the "existing PokeStops / Waypoints map" on PoGO when submitting, and understand what this means. 2) Take a supporting photo that actually shows the Nomination so reviewers can help confirm the location of your nomination, not a picture of the pavement. 3) Remember that "no stops nearby" / "high footfall area,… -
Re: Please advise, second time rejected as “natural feature”
The cut and paste reasons sent in the emails sometimes require some figuring out. I am guessing someone reported this as abuse for a nomination they thought was wasting reviewers time and you got sent that reason for the abuse tag. The natural feature rejection is probably because most of the stuff in the photo is nature.… -
Certified Freak, Seven Days a Week
You absolutely need to advise ONCE AND FOR ALL that the reject reason "Inappropriate Location" means an adult-oriented place. Places like a brothel. A firearms store. A drug and weed store. A sex-on-premises or sex shop. Yeah, you know exactly what I mean by all these censors. I am absolutely sick of the twisted-mind of… -

Re: Upgrade in queue vs. In voting
I mean, I figure that if a nomination is in voting, it's closer to a decision than a similar nomination that is in queue. If I have the choice between two similar nominations, I'll generally upgrade the one that's in queue, since it would seem to be a better "deal." Recently I used my Russia event upgrades on several trail… -
Re: Why was this gym removed?
Oh, I didn't see that the neighborhood across the street is gated. There is probably something eligible outside of that gated community in the same gym cell, but because of the playground pokestop that is already in the gated community, it's possible that that could be your new gym instead of the new POI that will be… -
OPR Candidate Action Guide - A Wayfarer History Lesson
To be clear first of all, this is very old guidance and the current Wayfarer Criteria ( https://wayfarer.nianticlabs.com/new/criteria/eligibility ) should be followed. NOT this. This is just for showing how things used to be. Again, don’t follow this for your reviews. However as @GearGlider-PGO linked to it, I thought it… -
Re: NSW State Survey Markers
Quoting the NSW Spatial Services glossary (https://www.spatial.nsw.gov.au/surveying/scims_online/glossary): --- Each Permanent Survey Mark (PSM) in SCIMS consists of a two-letter Mark Type prefix and a Mark Number. The Mark Type is one of the following: TS Trigonometrical Station SS State Survey Mark PM Permanent Mark CR… -
