Rejected appeals

Welcome to the forum!

I know it can be confusing when what you see in game does not match criteria, but this kind of tag is not eligible. See this clarification:

Vandalism

The street art pictured above may have initially been a good example, but due to the overwhelming number of names and different styles added to this piece, there is evidence to suggest it is not an intentional work of art and is therefore not eligible.

The same goes for business logos, with an exception for something that truly rises to the level of art:

Business Signage
Unique artistic merit can make a sign eligible. This could include being one of a kind and created by a local artist, or being distinctive and noteworthy in the local community. Is this a sign of something worthy of exploration? Submitters should ensure that they provide context as to why the sign meets the acceptance criteria.

The logo above is famous: The Golden Arches. However, because it is so well-known and widespread throughout the globe, it is considered generic or mass-produced.

The mural above also functions as a logo or sign for a business that can be considered eligible because it is a unique work of art.

Even though this hammer above is technically an address sign, it is unique and notable to the business it’s meant to represent and could be considered eligible.

The copy/paste warning is nothing to worry about. Just go look for things to submit that meet the eligibility requirements of:

• A great place for exploration
• A great place for exercise
• A great place to be social with others
