Hello! I would like to get some feedback on this rejected nomination. It is a traditional sundial located on a facade in Almunia de San Juan.
Title: Reloj Solar Casa Charlez
Description: Impresionante reloj solar de un acabado exquisito expuesto en la fachada exterior.
Supplemental Info: Expuesto para que todos lo puedan ver en la fachada exterior de la Casa Charlez, este reloj de sol decorativo con numeración romana y relieves escultóricos es un ejemplo del patrimonio arquitectónico tradicional de Almunia de San Juan. Elementos como este forman parte de la identidad histórica y cultural de los pueblos aragoneses. Accesible a pie desde cualquier punto del pueblo, se encuentra en la vía pública.
Location: 41.92131, 0.12648 (C. Joaquín Costa, 56, 22420 Almunia de San Juan, Huesca)
Rejection Reasons: [Escribe aquí los motivos que te puso el email de Niantic, ej: Private Residence o Distinctive]
My comments: The sundial is visible from the public sidewalk (as seen in the supporting photo). It is a piece of local artistic heritage. I would like to know if this is being rejected because it’s considered a private residence or if there is something I can improve in the photos/text.
By the way, I’d like to know if I should create three separate posts for the three nominations I need help with, or if I can just post them one after another here. I don’t want to spam the forum with too many threads, even though I’m starting with three, I might end up sharing a few more, haha!
No entiendo nada, literal que he sacado las coordenadas del sitio oficial de Niantic, no entiendo porqué os ha mandado ahí, gracias al usuario que ha compartido las coordenadas adecuadas.
I understand why nominations inside private residences are rejected, but the essence of this specific point of interest is that, being a sundial, you don’t need to enter the house to admire it. I thought this would make it acceptable, even knowing the rules about private buildings.
I wanted to focus on two things: it’s a large, ancient, and beautifully decorated piece that can be perfectly appreciated from the street. Because it’s a sundial, there’s no need to get close to or enter the residential area to enjoy it. I probably didn’t explain this well enough in my original submission.
Regarding the heraldic shield on the same house, I don’t quite understand its rejection either, as it is a noble coat of arms and part of our local history. However, I will go into more detail about the shield in a separate post to keep this discussion focused on the sundial.
I honestly understand the rules, but I would love for this nomination to be looked at differently. In a small village, it’s not always easy to find interesting Points of Interest, and this is clearly something beautiful and unique to see. It’s a shame to lose such a high-quality landmark over a technicality. Even after explaining all this, I’m not sure if it will change the community’s mind, but I wanted to share why these are important to us.
The community often incorrectly accepts things in these locations. This clarification is from Niantic, and I believe the strict rules around SFPRP come from a lawsuit settlement.
Vale, si es tema de juicios… Entiendo porqué son tan estrictos, vale.
Respecto a ese artículo parece que de mi pueblo se han olvidado un poco jajaja, bueno, veremos que acaba ocurriendo, solo el tiempo dirá.
Gracias de todos modos, por perder tiempo en este tipo de post, gracias de verdad, me quedo con un poco de sensación agridulce, pero supongo que es lo que hay.
I hate to have to tell someone that what they want to submit is not eligible without making a suggestion of something else to nominate instead, but I am afraid to make recommendations from the map in a language I can’t read. So let me suggest this topic to you, where forum users have made a list of points of interest you might look for: Tips for Rural Nominators
Esto es por lo que me encanta este foro, porque aún no habiendo conseguido nada, respecto a la petición inicial de a ver si se podía hacer algo con mi appeal, me habéis ayudado dentro de lo posible, me habéis corregido en lo que yo estaba equivocado y no solo eso, intentáis, dentro de lo posible y de vuestras capacidades, ayudar en todo lo que haga falta.
Muchisimas gracias de verdad, tendré en cuenta el post que me has pasado, aunque hay cosas que pueda entender más o menos dentro de las reglas, al final, las reglas son las reglas.
Intentaré sacarle más provecho a las futuras nominaciones que haga, muchisimas gracias, de verdad.
