Hello @SPDRanger,

Is your question about how long it takes for a nomination to get reviewed and for a decision to be made?

  • There is a grace period that can last up to a week before a nomination may go into voting. This allows you to easily make updates to your nomination if needed.
  • Depending on where your nomination is, there may be others in the region that are being voted on.
  • unfortunately it’s hard to tell how long something can be in queue or takes to be voted on. Sometimes it has been years. Recently it’s been better than that.

Or do you have a specific wayspot that you asked to be removed or restored?

  • if you are here to appeal something, you will need to include the information requested in the template

Got it. I updated my previous comment with more details. It doesn’t sound like anything is broken. You’ll just need to have some patience. Best of luck.

Hello and welcome,

India is a country that doesn’t have many Wayfarers, so it can take longer for a resolution. Many Wayspots in India have been imported from third party sources because of this.

We also have an AI, known as ML, that makes decisions on Wayspots quite quickly, usually within 24-48 hours. I have noticed in more rural areas ML making decisions after this timeframe, as I just had a nomination approved by ML today that was submitted 3 days ago.

No nomination that is in voting holds up nominations that are in queue. It can take 1-7 days for nominations to move into voting, but again, it depends on the number of reviewers in your area.

The best thing that you can do to help get your nominations into voting is to review yourself. This will help reduce the queue, and hopefully get your nominations in front of other reviewers.

Reviewing also helps you to earn upgrades, which you can apply to nominations. Upgrades open your nominations up to a wider review area, which may help get them resolved faster. For every 100 agreements you have reviewing, you earn 1 upgrade.
