Report it for third party? 
Have had my Wayfarer rating as âgreatâ for the longest time. Now itâs down to âgoodâ, I guess the rapid-rate approval of photos does that or something. 
And also got the two-hour ban (thatâs apparently only 30 min during the challenge).
Itâs kind of silly to penalize the reviewer if theyâre just being quick about it, and some of the stuff canât take more than a few seconds.
We Wayfinders arenât shown what Niantic and hmdb agreed upon with their use of photos and text. I can see reviewers reject the photo upon reverse search.

You cannot report for third party via the review, but you can submit one via the website. Although they will likely do nothing.
I have done many reports while reviewing. Casinos and wayspots in them for adult oriented location - apparently Nianticâs final say is the director need apply for removal. No this was not an automated response, but the individual assigned the ticket.
I even had a church which the individual wanted to update to the new business in that building, which is now a K-9 school. I reported that with screenshots for this photo edit and what did Niantic do. They updated the wayspot and told me I can submit a photo edit. For a school! Despite me providing all the information to show it is a k-9 school. It is just an alternative school for children to attend part-time to improve their home based education.
As well as countless disc golf courses where the basket and marker for each hole is already a wayspot.
Although this is taking away from my own reviews and so far most of my tickets have been ignored by Niantic. I do suggest they actually review disc golf courses and clear up that misunderstanding and pick a side.
Sorry for the rant, but I get venting the long description and taking extra measures seems like unnecessary when the response will likely be unsatisfactory. I do location, title, description edits in my own area and I have gotten a lot of backlash for removing wayspots that no longer exist.
Edit: Here is another one. Yet it takes forever to go through the wayspot removal report and also I have not had success that way⌠So move on.

Well, the baskets should have never been a pokestop / portal in the first place. Thatâs a safety hazard for the mobile players, and huge annoyance for the disc golfers. They should be removed. As for the teeing areas, theyâre not as much of a hazard (usually), but theyâre not great portal material either. Youâll potentially get bunch of people walking zig zag across the property since fairways donât tend to be the straightest route.
The bucket lid (disc golf disc) may only weight 180 grams / 6.35 ounces (or less), but imagine that hitting you in the face when somebody is capable of throwing 100m / 330 feet. Or way more for the better throwers. That thing comes with some speed, and itâs not uncommon to have blind spots (or âhave the approach blindâ) on the fairways.

Youâre not the weird one, as there are so many chains that get submitting in the US. I think the people that either visit these areas frequently or work there want Wayspots, but donât fully understand criteria. Or, with Starbucks, because some do have sponsored Wayspots, they think all new Starbucks are eligible, but itâs not the case.

Nice tryâŚ
PoGo and Starbucks did a collab some years ago, where Starbucks offered a PoGo themed drink. The images for these sponsored Wayspots were originally that drink, but have changed to the Starbucks logo. No new Starbucks stores have been added, so the sponsorship may have been limited.
There also was a convivence store in the upper Midwest called Holiday that had sponsored Wayspots for awhile, just a few years ago. However, Circle K bought Holiday, and all the Wayspots were removed after that. The only Holiday that still has a Wayspot in my area is one with a little lounge with a fireplace, and yes, itâs a nice place to socialize.

nice history lesson. i didnât knew. thanks
Oh ya Circle K came out with wayspots for awhile back and in Pokemon they were all gyms. They didnât last long so many people couldnât gold them for those seeking high gold gym counts.
Wait, what? Thereâs another strange photo on photo edit at this one.
Just another reason why photo reviews need a Report Abuse optionâŚ
