Just a random thought… and I can see the argument both ways… but am wondering, if nominations should be placed on hold automatically when you submit them rather than placed in queue, essentially getting us to log into Wayfarer to check if the nomination needs editing (spelling corrections, bolsterin…

oh so @P1dg3ySlayer was right and you do have to log in to the wayfarer site! ty

It would make sense for one to log in to the site in order for the script to kick the hold option on the nomination as Niantic would not know that #hold is to stop the nomination from going through without the 3rd-party script kicking in.

Nvl can tell you that nothing about scripts makes sense to me lol. I think it is all magic.

Maybe a button “go to” when the successful submitted screen is showing :woman_shrugging:t2:

That would assume that the submitter wants to go to the nomination page after they submitted their nomination instead of continuing with the game they are playing or going about their business. I get where you are coming from, but wouldn’t appeal to me personally.

That’s a cheap solution :crazy_face:

The issue I run into is that there is a delay between when the upload completes and when it’s visible on your contributions page. I did load the site immediately after the upload completed, because I wanted to put it on hold, but it wasn’t immediately there, so I would need to wait for it to show up…

[image] AliceWonder1511: cheap solution As this would require changes in-game to the nomination process, I don’t actually believe it would be cheaper or easier than a solution which the wayfarer team could implement without dependencies on other teams’ roadmaps.

In this threat it was also discussed. I didn’t re-read, so idk if there’s another point of view inside: [image] Messed up a submission Nomination Support So I had a nomination to upload for weeks and kinda forgot about it. Today I uploaded it. I usually just add tba or so…

Should nominations be automatically put on hold instead of in queue?
