As Tintino has previously shared, the Acceptance criteria take priority over the Eligibility criteria. These meet criteria. Mine meet both eligibility and acceptance criteria.
If a nominator fails to meet the Acceptance criteria, then you canât 4đ3đ and need to reject it. I certainly think that using a generic placeholder image is grounds for rejection under the acceptance criteria, but aside from that the example in the OP only looks like it fails to meet eligibility criteria, so rejecting it as visually indistinct would be abusing an Acceptance criteria rejection reason because it doesnât meet Eligibility criteria.

Generic street signs are not distinct. They are mass produced street signs.
Rejecting them as not distinct isnât abusing anythingâŠ

Have you actually read the tooltip? Theyâre very visually distinct - theyâre meant to be seen.

The category is Permanent and Distinct.
Distinct means recognizably different in nature from something else of a similar type.
Generic mass produced street signs are not that.

Go look up the rejection criteria and tell me whatâs in the second picture.
Iâll wait.
That section is titled:
Does not meet eligibility criteria
So youâre proving my point. 4đ3đ. Rejected for not meeting criteria.
Exactly. Reject it for not meeting eligibility criteria.
My apologies. There are a lot of misguided people out there abusing rejection reasons.
No, Tintino said that Acceptance criteria are the only ones that cause a rejection, and that rejecting for eligibility criteria will result in the wayspot being accepted. In short: only acceptance criteria matter.
Thatâs not what Tintino said.
Point me to it then. I already linked what Tintino actually said in this thread, and itâs that acceptance criteria matters and eligibility criteria doesnât.
I did. My interpretation is that it says that acceptance criteria are the only rejection reason.
For anyone following along, please donât believe the disgruntled claims being made in bad faith. Aaron and Tintino have in fact said ineligible nominations should be rejected and its acceptable to consider mass produced objects that do not meet criteria as not distinct.

This whole topic would be so much easier if we had an option to select âdoes not meet criteriaâ as a rejection reason!

My stance on abuse is made in good faith.
I do not like this, because if you are the other person getting the rejection, how are people supposed to know what is the specfic rejection reason is. What do you mean âdoes not meet criteriaâ ???
This is a really board rejection and I think it is bad to include it as it will cause a lot of confusion among submitter.
