This Gym/Pokestop needs to Be Removed since The Playground/Play Place that This was Based on has Been Removed, So what Happened is The Builders in My Community decided to make a new Playground just a Few Feet away From The Old one and I Wondered if it Can be Removed and Replaced, But I Don’t know The User For The Person that Actually Made it Into a Gym so That’s why I was wondering if You can Also inform Them About it Since The Playground as of Now Has Been removed.
Hi @PinkPanther4847
If you’re wayfarer eligible and the complete playground was moved you can request a location edit via helpchat (wayfarer menue → help → orange bubble).
If the playground was demolished and a complete new one was build on a spot nearby you need to report the wayspot ingame first (tap on the gym → three dot menue → report). If your report gets rejected you can post the rejection email here on the forum in Wayspot Appeals . You can nominate in this case the new playground.

I had an example where a playground at a leisure centre was demolished (the entire site was demolished including the whole leisure centre) and re built in a slightly different location (within 100m, but larger, better facilities etc)
However, importantly, it was still considered the same playground ie same name, on the same site.
I contacted help chat and asked them to update the location, and they did so, and I also added images of the new equipment. I do not believe this counts as repurposing, since it still represents the playground at the leisure centre, and help chat could have suggested removal if appropriate, but they decided an edit was okay. The title never needed changing
Will do, Thanks for The Help!

Oh thanks. I remembering your case. Yours have still been within this center. We don’t know how it looks “in the free field” 
It’d be helpful to know what they exactly mean by “a few feet” and to see the submission and the current streetview would be great

Yeah, mine was at a large site of this big leisure centre and I was able to take pictures showing the new playground aligned to buildings on the out of date satellite (which showed a building site) to evidence the move.
I didnt want to do the edits myself because I didnt want to be at risk of any abuse warnings with the satellite not matching and a big location edit

Which is Proof The Old one Was Demolished
I can’t really tell much from these pictures if I’m honest. It’s quite dark and I can’t see common landmarks between the 2.
In my example, the old location was next to a park sign, so I took a screenshot of those 2 PoIs so they could look them up. Then I took a picture from behind the park sign facing towards the new playground location, showing it in the distance with the park sign in the foreground
Then I also took pictures showing 2 buildings that still exist and are on satellite, to show another reference with the new playground visible too
The Street is Faktorigatan And The Playground Basically between That Street and The next Street which is Eriksgatan
(This location is In Jönkoping, Huskvarna, Sweden.)
And also The Street Sign was Moved to The New Playground Which Was the One In The Background you Couldn’t see, Basically Next to The Lamp at the Left Side of the First Image.
Dank u voor je uitleg👍

Since right now it’s dark
I’m not responsible for any decisions, that’s up to Niantic/Scopely. But they’ll make a decision based on shown evidence.
The forum is open around the clock and so are helpful users.
A Niantic/Scopely decision if they’ll remove or move the wayspot(s) you’ll receive in a) the fastes was 5 min to b) some weeks (if b ping the post from time to time).
So Basically I Want to Move it from The Old Location to The New Location.
Old Location:
New Location:
Idk if Niantic Can move it and Update The Photo for it But it would be Helpful lf you Could.
Than you should try helpchat first (wayfarer menue → help → orange bubble) you can explain there everything and upload evidence like your photos here, maybe a link to this thread and they’ll decide if they’ll move the wayspot or not. If not you can try the removal path.
It got removed.
