POIs in wildlife areas, like birding blinds and signs
I was wondering about thoughts on POIs in nature preserves, conservation areas, wildlife refuges, and similar areas that may have walking paths but are meant for wildlife protection and not human recreation (aside from birdwatching and other wildlife observation). 1. What about wayspots inside of the wildlife area that… -
Re: Do Parking Lots & Dirt Roads count as "safe pedestrian access"?
The same post also says: Easements, “right-of-ways,” and sidewalk are too broad to make a global statement on. They just gave their opinion on these specific candidates. They didn't outright say a sidewalk is always necessary. In the picture with the dice, the road appears to be a road where you can drive considerable… -
Re: Survey Markers
@Tntnnbltn-ING To add to that, the original 4* guidance had the criterion: "Survey Marker if on a trail or helps you explore the location", so it wasn't simply because it is a survey marker that it would be acceptable, but one that had more significance. Those idiot submitters have twisted and cherry picked the old… -
Re: Waypoint for location without street view
Nominations don't have to be visible via Google for confirmation. The supporting photo view helps a lot. Ideally, one of the photos contains the proposed wayspot (or a portion of it) as well as at least one distinguishable features of the surrounding that are visible on Google's image set. It's important for the POI to… -
Re: Reviewing nominations with copy/pasted description
I don't care too much about my rating, I care more about submitting and reviewing properly. In this case the problem is just so huge. It's not just a few nominations with copy/paste text. There are so many of these trail marker nominations, sometimes it's even 2 or 3 in a row from the same submitter, in a review session of… -

Re: Education Emails
I completely agree with the others who have said this would be a terrible thing. Street view and satellite update and criteria change. I would be livid if I were punished in any way for having rejected a simple trail mile marker back when we were told that they needed trail names on them, for example. I would quit Wayfarer… -
Re: Reddit research about numbers of needed reviewers
15-30 for a good submission also seems reasonable to me based on some photosphere testing I did in remote areas. For example, I had nice trail marker approved with under 20 photosphere views during the brief time period during which it was upgraded, for example. (It probably had some reviews before the upgrade, but not… -
Re: How to improve this submission for a foot/vehicle bridge
I will see if I can get a "classic view" of the bridge, but the sides going down to the water are very steep. It was originally a stone bridge, but since it is the only way up the hill, construction trucks would use it and it was broken a couple of times. The construction company basically paid to cover the original bridge… -
Re: What motivates you to submit Wayspots?
I like exploring nature areas and submitting some of the cool stuff I find along my routes. The two large Federal and State Land complexes near me are spots where I've led birding groups on spotting trips, where I've scouted locations for birding competitions (yes, that's a thing!) and even won a contest or two along the…
