Hi all,
Unsure if this is the correct spot, but I’ve been attempting to nominate two stops by me and when doing so I see they are in the Wayfarer map in an orange exclamation point but NOT available in game. What is this? I can’t resubmit them because they are marked as duplicates but, as mentioned, aren’t available as a stop in game. Any ideas?
Welcome!
It means that they have already been accepted as wayspots.
Unfortunately, for you, they are not being used in the game you are playing.
There are several Niantic games sharing the same map.
Whilst the wayfarer database itself has no spacing rules, each of Niantic’s games has a proximity rule that limits what can and cannot appear in that game. In Pokémon Go, the rule is that you can only have one Pokéstop or one Gym per Level 17 S2 Cell. If you want to read more about this system, read this article.
Assuming that everything is already submitted in the correct location, then there’s nothing you can do to make it appear as it simply doesn’t comply with the proximity rules for the game you’re playing.
