Nice try…
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, it’s a nice place to socialize.

nice history lesson. i didn’t knew. thanks
Oh ya Circle K came out with wayspots for awhile back and in Pokemon they were all gyms. They didn’t last long so many people couldn’t gold them for those seeking high gold gym counts.
Wait, what? There’s another strange photo on photo edit at this one.
Just another reason why photo reviews need a Report Abuse option…

I had one for a mural that included someone’s shadow buddy screenshot at a random building
What is your stance on this?
There is already a wayspot for this and I am rejecting it. There are lots of wayspots in the area. This isn’t the first time I have had stairs nominated. Looking for other input on this.
All the flagpoles too! That would definitely be an interesting swingset.
You can report photo edits……
I had this problem just the other day and was looking for a report button at top or bottom - I also review in dark mode, and I didn’t think how to do it was obvious.
Clicking on that gives I think 3 options to choose to report.

Yeah, just for being offensive, explicit, or containing personal info, not for any other abuse options.

As long as you pick one it will log it for checking.
But yes a more general option would be helpful.

I wish there was an option to also rate your favourite image. There are many eligible but not very good images on these edits, and 1 or 2 awesome images that would be so much nicer if they were chosen
Currently there is no way to get a new image onto a waypoint. Sure you can submit new images and upvote them in game if you live there… but nothing happens from that.

“This is a good spot for a pokestop because there is no pokestops near here”
starting to hate these support descriptions… slowly starting to feel like cheap begging. or maybe i should stop reviewing so many a day 
hopefully i can resist my urge to just decline them… that would ruin my rating a bit

I don’t hate those.
I’d prefer Niantic to explicitly state that players shouldn’t do that so I don’t have to reject what would otherwise be an accept.

Too many legit contributions are getting rejected the same kind of portals are getting accepted and the same kind are getting rejected. Have to pile up all the appeals now 2 appeals in 20 days is not that enough.
I have had today a casino nomination.
In LAS VEGAS - believe it or not.
More unique isn’t possible

it’s just me or the reviews come slower…?
lots of balloon bouncing and retry messages
++ what means “Placeholder” written at support information?
i’ve seen that a few times already
Placeholder means that the nominator planned to edit the entry to write a proper description or elaborate on their supporting text, but they likely forgot to put the nomination on hold and it went into voting before they could fix it. When submitting on the go, sometimes it’s easier to submit with placeholder text, then put the entry on hold so they can write more comfortably or research information.
Basically, someone meant to hold the nomination and didn’t get to it in time.
