Appeal: Yes? No?

So, I submitted a family friendly, movie themed bar and grill last week, and it has been rejected for being indistinct, as well as for faces/body parts in the main photo. Yes, there are a few people in there, but you can’t see their faces. It’s locally owned by the family that also owns the movie theater that’s also in the shopping center (47.928966, -97.026878 is the location), and I did make sure to include the Facebook page link in the supporting info. Here’s the info:

Description: A family-friendly, movie themed restaurant located inside River Cinema 15 in East Grand Forks, MN. All of their food and drinks have pun names after movies, like the Lord of The Wings and Poultrygeist!

Supporting Info: Located at front of screens 13-15 inside River Cinema inside Riverwalk Center, lots of food offerings along with TVs to watch if not seeing a movie, The Shire Bar & Grill | East Grand Forks MN for more info

Here are larger res screenshots of the main photo:


And for more info on the theater, here’s its website: https://www.moorefamilytheatres.com/our-locations/x087o-river-cinema/

Let me know what you think. Thanks!

Why not just nominate one of the amazing decorations inside instead of the whole business? Surely that full sized Predator (?) is not temporary.

I don’t live in the area, so I don’t know when I’ll be back. I was here for the holiday weekend. It could also be a cardboard cutout, which the theater as all over their walls.

The theater also doesn’t have a Wayspot, but I didn’t have time.

This place sounds (and looks) awesome. I’m surprised it wasn’t accepted initially. I will poke around in the info that you provided and see if I can add any suggestions.

But really I just want to check the place out myself. It sounds fun.

This is very interesting nomination.

The information and link provided really gives you insight on this place. I think you defenitely did the right thing submitting it in whole. It very much meets criteria from what I can see.

I want to check this out myself, it looks so interesting.

Yes, I would defenitely appeal in my opinion

That’s what I thought, too! All of the dishes are puns on movies. The grilled cheese for the kids is called “Despicable Cheese,” for example.

It looks like an excellent candidate for a wayspot IMO, the people in the photo might be a problem even though you can only really see that they are there when you zoom in a lot. I don’t think there’s any way you could frame the photo to remove them, when I have that problem I apply a coarse pixellation which you can’t see in-game but is enough to disguise whoever is there.

Update: Appeal accepted!
