My nomination for an ice cream parlor has been rejected four times. The judges always make a different rejection. My appeal was also rejected, stating that my nomination cannot be verified. Across the street there is a ruined school that is out of use, the pictures of the street also show the windows being bricked up. I drew the judges’ attention to this in the description. The ice cream parlor is private. is found. But this is everywhere. I just can’t figure out how to make this a good waypoint. Could you help me.
For these types of nominations it’s important to highlight how it functions as a social hub. So first of all you need a better photo or the seating area. Do they offer anything that would prompt people to stay beyond just quickly having their ice cream? Do they make their own ice cream?
Thanks for the answer! But why did they write that the “marking is probably intended for children under 18 in a school?” This point of the rejection is incomprehensible.
If the map is showing a school here, most reviewers would rather be safe if they are not completely convinced by your nomination that it is not a school now. Would you like to show the entire contribution, including the location and the supporting section so we can give more advice.
Frankly, that tilted photo would have me leaning towards reject right away. You don’t have to be a professional photographer, but you can take your photos first, then adjust them in your gallery. When you submit the nomination, you can choose the “use existing photo” option.
This can be only answered if the location is shared because from what you shared so far there is no explanation for it
Based on your advice, I will improve my waypoint marking. I just noticed that it seemed that the judges checked my marking superficially because the school they referred to no longer exists, so it is not school as a function. In the next nomination, I will also post photos of the school so that even superficial judges can see that it is not a functioning school.

How can I share my location? Based on GPS coordinates?
