I understand that this is not something serious, but I don't understand

The ā€œAbuseā€ rejection narrative can be flagged for a nomination for any of the following reasons

* The photo is not yours (e.g., taken from streetview, found on another website)
* The text itself is abusive
* The nomination is controversial and likely to be offensive (e.g., a mural of terrorists)
* Another nomination was abusive and all of yours have been flagged as a consequence
* The wayspot location pin is misplaced
* The wayspot is deliberately misrepresented (e..g., on school property but pretending it isn’t)
* (there may be others)

Can you tell which of these is the explanation here?

Hello,

The reviewers might have flagged your nomination for abuse that could be for a couple reasons.

misplacement of the location for example. @salixsorbus has mentioned all of them

Also, is this mural not on single family private property

  1. The photo is mine, I didn’t take it from third parties.

  2. ⁠the text ā€œMother and daughter muralā€

  3. ⁠it’s not a terrorist mural

  4. ⁠it is located in its original location

  5. ⁠it is not located in a school

  6. ⁠in the mail it says that it contains abusive content, that it ridicules or harasses a specific group of people. :person_gesturing_no:

The phrasing of the abuse rejection is awful - ignore the words used.

Is it possible that it is on the exterior wall of a single-family private-residential property, but you misrepresented it as being on something else (like an apartment or a business)?

If you post the details of the submission, it may be possible to identify what was flagged - title, description, supporting text, both images, location (found below the images in the submission receipt email).

We have been told by staff that this is just the string that shows on the contributions page when abuse is flagged. It often is not about the text. The separate email you got is supposed to explain this flag, but it does a very poor job of it in this case. The nomination ā€œMural Madre e Hijaā€ has something they consider a ā€œgeneric very low severity offenseā€. The actual issue is probably something that others have suggested.

If you still don’t understand what you did wrong, you can use that ā€œcontact usā€ link to ask for more explanation, or often @NianticAaron will initiate a DM to explain when someone posts on the forum.
