Hello,
i’ve had two nominations that were accepted and it’s been 48 hours since they’ve been accepted (don’t mind the screenshots times I took them yesterday). As far as I can understand, they’re not within the same cell so I’m wondering why they have not appeared within Pokémon GO. I had one accepted the red one at the bottom of the image and that one appeared after 48 hours. The other two white dots, I’m mainly just looking for an answer of why they have not appeared in the game.
Anything would help I’d love to understand and maybe see if there’s a fixture this.

Hello and Welcome,
There has been reports that the daily syncs have either been missed completely or only partly worked.
There “should” be nothing to worry about, you will just need to wait a little longer.
Keep an eye on the forums, someone is bound to confirm when the Sync is up and running 100%.
Good Luck.
Thank you so much! I am new to this side of the community and appreciate it a lot! The forms are a bit consuming but i am learning to navigate them.
Hey, on the map you sent, are the nominated Pokestops the white dots in the?
The white dots are accepted waypoints but no appearing in pokémon go
Any help what this means? when i click on it it says waypoint used in other niantic games.
White dots mean that your nominations got accepted, but are not part of pokemon go. They are now just wayspots on the wayfarer map. I nominated a Pikestop around 3 years ago and it became a wayspot (white dot on the map). But later with the dyna event became the wayspot a dyna power spot. So there are chances that your nominations will be included in pokemon go, but not as pokestops.
But it could be possible that the wayspot will be used in another niantic game.
what is dumb and does not make much sense since I literally submitted it through Pokémon GO and specified, it would be a great PokéStop, i’m hoping that it’s just a sync issue
Option 1: There has been several reports that the Daily Sync has not been happening over the last few days. On the Wayfarer Map, Accepted will be shown as “Not in Game” until Pokemon Go updates Wayfarer If or What it will be used as. Maybe this is the same for the in game map.
B: Your Acceptance email states that "Not all wayspots will be used in all games.
Remember that a large portion of the wayspots used in Pokemon Go where nominated by the Players of Ingress (back when they where both owned by Niantic). Is it dumb that these are used in Pokemon Go, maybe they should all be removed from the map?
The most common reason for accepted wayspots not appearing in Pokemon Go is due to the Proximity Rules. More details can be found at https://community.wayfarer.nianticlabs.com/t/why-an-accepted-wayspot-may-not-be-used-in-pokemon-go-s2-cells-and-pokemon-go
If you post the Title and Location (shown on the 1st email you receive when you nominate) we can take a look and might be able to advise better.
Good Luck.
My acceptance email does not specifically say that so I guess again I will just still wait. Thank you for clarifying.
I hate the wording in the Pokemon Go in game submission prompts that lead you to believe that you are submitting a Pokestop. Web Submit through the Wayfarer site gets it right: you submit a Wayspot that may or may not be used in Pokemon Go.
Until sync, even Wayspots that are going to be Pokestops will show with this “used in other games message” which is badly worded. It would be great if they fixed this when they change to Scopely Explore branding, but I predict they will just find and replace “Niantic.”
awesome thank you for clarifying and educating me
well dang hopefully that’s not the case
There was just a report of sync at an unusual time of day. Check Map - Pokémon GO for real time status!
The 1st email you receive when you nominate will show you the location in Long / Lat format. Looks something like “53.401644, -1.314840”. If you post that we can take a look.
Alternatively, find the location on Google Map, right mouse and you can select the Long / Lat then paste it here.
Sweet I will just wait. So i assume you are like one of the voters? Zone of the higher ups that can vote and make waypoint decisions?
