I have 2 contributions that have been accepted but 1 previously was seen on the map but then it suddenly dissappear. And 2nd contributions until now which is more than 48hrs haven’t seen appear on the map yet. Can you please resolve the issues?
Do you have the acceptance email for these? Can you tell me what the second paragraph says in that email?

Welcome to the forum, and I hope we can explain. The one that didn’t appear may have been due to this: Why an accepted Wayspot may not be used in Pokemon Go (S2 cells and Pokemon Go)
As far as the one that was there and disappeared, it may have been reported for removal if it should not have been accepted. Or the property owner could have requested that the game location be removed.

Hello,
I attached here the email confirming the acceptance of the wayspots that i nominated.
What @seaprincesshnb was getting at was this part:
Remember that not all accepted nominations will appear in all Niantic games (and may take up to 48 hours to appear).
which many seem to miss (or ignore). You’ve nominated some Wayspots but not all Wayspots become PokéStops as all the games have inclusion rules.
If your Wayspot doesn’t appear as a PokéStop on Pokémon GO, then it doesn’t meet Pokémon GO’s inclusion rules.
In order to try and help more can you please provide the details of where these are, the coordinates work best.
Which one appeared first? The park?
The park was the first accepted and shown on the map for almost about 2 month and we were able to play during those months but then it suddenly dissappear from the map. The location and rules met all the criterias. So why does it suddenly dissapear from the map is a big questions.
That is beginning to sound like a location issue possibly owner request.
Can you provide exact location please.
It would be easier if you can provide a screenshot of your nomination emails (redact any personal info) as these have a location in
These POIs are not eligible to appear in Pokemon Go due to game inclusion rules. Not all Wayspots are eligible to become Pokestops or Gyms.
Also… is the satellite imagery really outdated? I am just asking because the Wayspots appear to be located on top of houses according to the satellite view. Are they meant to be located in the park across the street?

Also, the pin on the football pitch is located poorly. You should not place pins on the athletic field. They should be placed around the edges of the field to avoid interfering with the sports being played. In this case, moving the pin will not change anything about the game appearance of that wayspot.
This is just information for you to know in the future when doing nominations and when reviewing.
Oops didnt mean to reply to tntnnbltn directly.

As I mentioned before it is not pin on any private property or on any houses. Those parks are very near to the neighbouring houses across the street. Those parks are in the middle of neighbouring houses. People living nearby the parks can only just walk like less than a minute to get there for your information.
It is quite frustrated & dissapointing after spending money and time on this game which supposed to be fun playing will be this hassle just to nominate a wayspot for all to enjoy and have fun playing.
I assume you have spent time and money on Pokemon Go and not Wayfarer.
You have shown your nomination(s) above and people here are advising of possible problems with the location and that just because the “waypoint” has been accepted does not mean that Pokemon Go will decide to use it in that game.
Wayfarer is a database of Points of Interested that should be accurate. Each game then have rules on which can be used in that game.
If you find it an hassle to nominate a wayspot then don’t. You can continue playing the games as before. It is not a requirement.
