- Additional Information (if any): Hello everyone,
I have two approved Wayspots that were accepted a while ago. As many of you know, there was a sync backlog/delay for about a week. Yesterday, that backlog cleared and other missing PokéStops finally appeared in-game – but my two accepted Wayspots are still completely missing.
I already checked the S2 Level 17 cells via PogoMap. The existing Gym nearby is located in a different cell, so it should not be causing a blockage. Can it be that they blocking each other? Additionally, for one of these Wayspots, (50.417263, 8.282316) the current location is not entirely accurate. I would like to request a slight location edit so it sits on the correct real-world spot. Moving it might also help clear any cell conflicts if there are any. Thanks
PogoMap is not the best resource to use, as everything on that map is user submitted, and users don’t always source the coordinates correctly, leading to both outdated and inaccurate information. The satellite view is also pretty bad quality and doesn’t quite line up with what you see on Google satellite view either. Whilst we can’t link to it, I suggest using your favourite internet search engine to look up Wayfarer Tools.
Your two nominations are in the same level 17 S2 Cell as “Dorfgemeinschaftshaus Elkerhausen”, which is a Pokéstop according to the wayfarer map. That’s why they can’t appear in game.
As for the location of the playground, I do agree that it’s not quite in the right place, and you can contact the support chat on the wayfarer website to request an edit. However, there is no valid location that would move it out of this cell, as the whole playground is in one cell, which is the same cell where the pin is located currently anyway. They would likely agree to move the pin to the entrance of the playground (which can be seen on both street view and satellite view), but it wouldn’t cause it to appear in game. Just remember that the purpose of location edits is solely to improve the wayspot accuracy, and they’re not for trying to get things to appear in game that shouldn’t appear.
Evsngelisches Gemeindehaus is slightly misplaced as it is in the middle of the road. The correct location is slightly to the NE and would make no difference to what is used by Pokemon Go.
. So the Cells are wrong on the Site or I don’t get it cut the gym Looks pretty close to the street so it should be in the other cells or not? someone has maybe a more accurate Picture?
Mod Edit: Removed the image from a third party site.
Yes, but unfortunately, it is in the correct cell, so moving the wayspots will make the gameboard more accurate, but it won’t generate an additional pokestop/gym.
