Appeal rejected poi

When submitting a Wayspot Appeal, make sure to include as much of the following information as possible:

  • Wayspot Title: McKernan School

  • Location (lat/lon): 11330 76 Ave NW, Edmonton, AB T6G 1H3

  • City: Edmonton

  • Country: Canada

  • Screenshot of the Rejection Email (do not include your personal information):

  • Additional Information (if any): The school is not small and there is no existing poi for the school (even the small playground inside has one)

Welcome to the forums :slight_smile:

Do not resubmit this.

I am very surprised the internal reviewer did not reject this on the basis that it is a school for under 18s (it is not a university or a post-school education facility).

Ineligible location, place, or object

  • Location is unsafe, without pedestrian access
  • Location is a private residential property (even if historical), farmland, a K12 and under school (preschool, primary/elementary, secondary/high school), child care/daycare center, rehabilitation center, safety shelter

Welcome to the forum @EmissionSpectru

K-12 locations like schools are quite clearly listed on the rejection criteria page as being ineligible. That’s why your nomination was rejected. I wouldn’t waste one of your appeals on this as it’s never going to be accepted.

It may help if you have another look at the criteria pages on the wayfarer website, so that you can get a better idea of what can and cannot be submitted.

I’ve just realised it was probably an automated rejection. The generic “something was wrong” message really isn’t helpful sometimes.

Hello
It is not easy to know where it is best to post.
Given the content I am moving this to nomination support where we can better assist.
