Good morning, Fellow wayfolk… I was wondering if you would be able to help/give your opinion on a wayspot nomination that was declined (automatically) I assume because it’s a postbox (and I know ERII postboxes are not as a rule accepted) However I discovered this one on my travels in one of the ne…

Do you have proof to back up your claim? Otherwise reviewer might think you are making up story. Web link as proof will be hundreds time more credible than just few line of words I google abit and found this . Are you sure its painted blue because of what you said? [Screenshot_20260416-152941_Chr…

Hi Tjoe, Unfortunately this is all the information I have. I thought it was interesting with it being blue, and something that the locals had done… But my information is based on what I was told by my friend and what I found on Google, but it doesn’t elaborate much, so I did think this may be an i…

This is what I get in Google… But I’m very aware that Facebook is not a reliable source. I know it’s not an airmail or priority box and it’s not a cricket world cup one [1000018713] It’s fine if it doesn’t get approved (I mean obviously it’s nice to get them approved) but I just wondered if it w…

Is this even the same mailbox? The mailbox shape is different. I am not discouraging you to submit this. But know that this might be what reviewer see when they see your screenshot

That’s the link I found, but nothing else. This is real and eligible, but you need to convince reviewers as well as get past ML. It was painted blue between March 2011 and September 2023, which is a long timeframe because that’s the google streetview gap.

That’s a different blue postbox, but the comment about this one is buried deep in that thread, so google linked the Chilthorne Domer narrative to the thread’s first picture.

Is this worth an appeal?
