You can easily recognise that place on Google Street view:
Unlike Wayfarer team declaread, it is NOT vandalized graffiti, but a regular shutter art. I kindly ask you to approve my wayspot. It has also incorrectly been rejected for not being perament nor being culturally nor historically relevant. Thank you.
Art that is on shutter doors can still be considered vandalism, and it doesn’t seem that you have proven that it’s not vandalism. One of the best ways to prove this would be to make note of the artist in the title or description, and, if possible, provide a link that proves it’s an actual piece of art and not vandalism. None of this seems to have been provided in your nomination, as well as your appeal, although you haven’t provided your supporting info.
More info on vandalism can be found below:
The original rejection reason is due to reviewers downvoting on Permanent and Distinct. This should be looked at permanent and/or distinct, as that it has to meet both of these. A trash can at a park can be permanent, but it’s indistinct as most parks have them as a part of the infrastructure. A custom banner for a farmer’s market can be distinct, but it may not be permanent if it’s removed after every market day, just to give a couple examples.
Not being culturally/historically relevant is usually tied to those voting down on Appropriate and choosing Generic business, which this is not. We haven’t been given a clear answer as to how to reject something that we deem to be ineligible, but have been told there is work being done to rectify this issue.
As you can see, it is not vandalism.
The key is to provide the evidence in the appeal text before finalizing the appeal. There you should add the link and the context of it.
For example, the link given shows the graffiti by posted by someone in social media. What is the relevance of this post to the concerned appeal? Is the OOP the owner of the business, the artist behind this graffiti, or a random who posts graffiti as a hobby?
This should be stated for clarity as some pages also post graffiti even if it is vandalism, commissioned, or non-commissioned. If the business itself posted about the unveiling of this graffiti, that can be a better proof to show the reviewers.
First please dont spam tags to Wayfarer Team staff. The relevant members of the team do read posts.
There is no formal process for appealing an appeal decision.
What you are seeking to do is make a case as to how with the information available to the appeals team a mistake was made.
So i would recommend looking at that information and if it is the case pointing out what was overlooked or not enough weight given to it.
