Public footpath signs

What I can tell you about these is that the two that were rejected for “Wayfarer criteria” were most likely rejected by the ML (machine learning ai) model. The email will say “our team” instead of the “community” and the decision most likely came around 20-24 hours after the nomination was made - unless upload later was used.

I think that ML decisions are heavily based on the photo, but I don’t see much difference in the accepted photos from the rejected ones. You may want to try framing your photo more like this example from Trails & Markers

I would also recommend submitting with different text. Nominations should have unique titles. And saying “one of many” in the description doesn’t really make this sound special. But I will let some of our UK folks give you more specific advice on how they nominate these.
