Thanks ! Just, I can’t edit my post, and the next time I’ll be able to post is in one year ???

Yes, that’s a special AMA setting. If you want to edit something you can write it here and a moderator will change it for you.

Ok, as you made it a new post, I would like to add details, and so can you put this text as my main post :

Can you change the system to detect wrong vote, and make it unrelated to games? Like don’t be allowed to vote but keep be allowed to play, and have a system like Stack Overflow has for example.

To explain more : Stack Overflow has an important review queue system where only some trusted users can votes. For example, edit by new users go in “Suggested edit” review queue. You can review them, skip or improve it. Currently, wayfarer has the same system, but only one queue with all differents query in the same queue.

The main change is: Sometimes, you can find audit review which is the same as normal one, but if you fail, you get warned. 2 warns, you can’t review for few days, next fail the time goes up etc, and the time reset after few weeks without fail.

The audit can be generated (ex: fake suggest audit that add random content) some are picked from declined one (for example, one declined for spam). Each time, the system try to make the audit quite obvious, to prevent people from robot-review, and also for people that doesn’t know how it works.

The idea of first fail without ban, is a learning behavior, and instant information. You can directly know which post you failed, why and learn from it. Currently, wayfarer tells you few weeks after that you fail. And you’re now banned. And you can be def-banned from everywhere to make review, so to do the job of the company, you can be DEF BANNED. On Stack Overflow, you can only be banned from review, it’s not your account, just the review.

Hi @Petr000rteP
I’ve slightly edited your titles to a question format.

Hi @aslokadaj and @Shapesandsounds
I’ve slightly edited your titles to a question format.

Thank you. I just reverted one change back to my original - I was not aware you update it. :-X Sorry.

Would you want another phrasing?
You can give me your own

@patsufredo
I’ve opened an own thread for your question before the dealine comes and we lose it.
If you read this and want to edit the description please post here and a moderator will change it for you.

I often use a photo collage app to combine multiple photos together before using them as a single supporting photo. To my knowledge there is nothing wrong with doing this.

Hi, yes - that would be really appreciated. When I’m traveling, I often come across up to 15 great locations to nominate in a single day, but I usually don’t have any nomination slots left to use.

Maybe there could be a Wayfarer level system implemented. For example, once a user has had many nominations approved - showing that they understand the criteria and process - they could reach a higher level and be granted 5 nominations per day instead of just 1.

On the other hand, new users with little experience could still start with 1 nomination per day until they become more familiar with how it works. This would help maintain quality while also rewarding experienced contributors.

I’ve moved your comment over to our discussion thread.

Hello and welcome.

Great topics you are raising, but could you please give us some alterations to the titles to make them actual questions so that it will aid voting.
I believe it has to be a mod that edits.

I’ve edited the most into a question format. This one excluded (lack of phantasy):

@8h20m could you please check if you feel comfortable with the edits and suggest a title for the linked above - thanks.

Hello,

Sure, I’ll go back and re-edit the existing ones… just doing a brain dump before the voting starts.

Yep, I’ll go back and revisit them all before the voting starts - always the plan.

I don’t think you can edit.
But we will happily make the changes for you.
So if you can great, if not just make a post here.

Yep, I think I can edit - at least I can edit the body.

Although, I can’t seem to submit any new topics so can I share here and you post as a new topic over there?

@8h20m I don’t think I understand this question. The last sync of Wayfarer from Ingress submissions was May 23. They are separate companies now, so I don’t think new submissions can be brought from one to the other.
