A theater got rejected for “wayfarer criteria” after just 22 hours.
A well made mural got its appeal rejected because of “vandalism”. Seriously. where??? Where is vandalism??? It’s a mural, with green grass, white aqueduct and blue sky.
And now the only repetitive thing I’m going to hear over and over will be “try again”, while letting players waste their nomination slots.
Yes, I am going to say “try again” but try centering your photos better to include context around the poi to make it more clear what you are submitting. Possibly something like this for the first one
If you are unaware, the timing and the rejection reason indicate this was a rejection by the ML (machine learning ai) model. So making it clearer that you aren’t just submitting a random place on a wall will help get this into community voting, and will help reviewers feel good about accepting it.
I can’t find the second one on the map but it isn’t clear to me at first glance what this is. Did you show the entire mural in your supporting photo?

The second one looks like it’s on a garage door type things that goes up and down (which shouldn’t disqualify it). The appeal staff saying “vandalism” probably means they think it’s graffiti that the property owner didn’t agree to installing.

I agree that the theater was most likely rejected by ML, as it used Wayfarer Criteria as its rejection reason. An improved photo either the sign of the front of the theater would be better. Feel free to post the rest of the nomination, as I think we’d like to see what you put for the description and supporting info.
I also agree with the art, as it seems to be on a roller door, but it’s hard to tell if it was commissioned to be painted on it, or if someone painted it without permission from the owner. I think it would also be good to see the description and supporting info for this one, and maybe even the location for both.
