How Best To Reject?

If you believe that a nomination should not be on the map, make sure you review the nomination and thumbs down Safe, Appropriate, Accuracy, or Permanent and Distinct to have your review reflect a rejection.

I really hate this aspect of the new review flow, that we can’t just check off that the nomination does not meet criteria. For these generic things, I have been told by the ambassadors that Tintino recommended to them that a lamp post could be rejected as not “Distinct”, so I use that one a lot.

I can’t answer if thumbs down on the last three questions about the metrics is a rejection. This has not been confirmed either way.

I absolutely hate the ambiguousness of it all, too. I have been doing this since 2019, have done 76800 reviews, and now I am less confident about reviewing than ever.
