Screenshot of the Rejection Email: Not applicable. The Wayspot was a long-standing Gym that was recently removed.

Additional Information:
Hello! Thank you for reviewing this appeal. This Wayspot was recently removed, likely because the original “Skate zone” has been undergone a full renovation and has been replaced by a new playground/children’s recreation area.

Since the location still serves as a perfect spot for exercise and social gathering, I would like to ask if it is possible to restore the Gym and update its information to reflect the current state of the location.

Suggested updates:

New Title: Parque Infantil La Rubia

New Description: Nuevo Parque infantil y zona social de La Rubia

Thank you so much

This is considered “repurposing” by Niantic when the original point of interest is not the same thing that was approved originally, and is not allowed. The only exception is a mural, which can be updated if the same wall is repainted with a new mural.

You can submit the new point of interest there as a new Wayspot if it meets criteria.

Welcome to the forums :slight_smile:

You can submit a new wayspot at the rebuilt recreation area. Depending on the number of nearby wayspots, a replacement gym may have already appeared or might appear after a new wayspot is accepted. The gym is chosen sort-of at random.

Hmm. That cell already has two wayspots, one is the new playground, so there is nothing to submit. The S2 L14 cell has more than 6 active wayspots but only one gym.

Thank you very much for the quick response, I thought updating the existing Wayspot would be the best way to proceed.

I just saw that there is an inactive wayspot for the new playground

Thanks

Thanks for the appeal, @Skatron. We have taken another look but stand by our decision to retire this Wayspot.
