Hello and Welcome @Beastman94
I think I will move this to Nomination Support
You can ask lots of questions there.
Here are some articles to read

This will give you an idea of how to nominate.
Do look through the basics category on this forum.
You will probably want to read about why not all nominations will appear in pokemeon go
A Comprehensive Guide to S2 Cells and Pokémon GO | Pokémon GO Hub
That should keep you busy :grinning_face:
Be cautious about doxxing yourself , but if you can say something about the kind of area you will be nominating in that will be helpful.

I will also link a recent topic discussing how to improve a poor rating:

Hello,

  • Firstly, What level are you in Pokemon Go. You need to be Level 35 to submit.

  • Do not think “I want a stop here” and start thinking "What (in the real world) would make a good nomination.

  • Learn the criteria. Just because it exists does not mean it can be eligible.

The big 3 is a Great Place to “Socialise” or “Exercise” or “Explore”.
That is a place that encourages, not just that you could.

The big “No”'s are Single Family Private Residence Property (SFPRP) & Schools (that focus on the under 18s).

Criteria

If you would like suggestions in your area please post a map link to the general location. As stated above, Do Not Use Your Home Address. Use a park, town centre etc.

If you already have a location you wish to submit I suggest taking a few images. Create a new post with the images, Title, Description, Supplemental Info and location and you will be given advise but be aware that we will give bad news as well as good…

  • It’s already perfect. Get it nominated…
  • It could be OK but you need to make some changes…
  • It does not meet criteria, do not nominate…

Good Luck.

Gyms are simply upgraded pokestops. There will be one pokestop automatically selected for upgrade once there is a certain population density of pokestops in a specific area.

This is ALMOST but not quite based on wayspots in Wayfarer. There’s two variations specific to Pokemon Go:

  • There are some “sponsored” stops which appear in game but not in Wayfarer; these are counted toward density but will not be selected to become a gym.

  • Some wayspots may appear in Wayfarer but not appear in game due to proximity to other spots. (This seems to be governed by a grid map allowing only one wayspot per square to appear in Pokemon Go, in other words wayspots may exist that don’t appear and thus don’t count for density in game)

The grid map in question (S2) is discussed in a link posted by the first prior commenter.
