Sitio de interés cultural rechazado, y miedo a pedir apelación por una sanción injusta

Provided Calavera Negra is still an active location in Pokemon Go, i.e., either a pokestop or a gym, it looks like a good case for appealing the warning. Although the location was wrong, since there was no gain from it, it doesn’t look deliberate.

@Kaorux Good result on the warning, which means your account is now clear with no steps on the suspension ladder.

For the cafe/restaurant, these are hard places to get accepted, despite generally meeting criteria specifically as being great places to be social. Like many submissions, everything needs to be good to get reviewers to accept. Strangely, this does also appear to be a bar, which are much easier to get accepted.

The photo is key. It needs to draw the eye and make reviewers thing this is an object that is eligible, which I think you did successfully. The next important thing for cafe/restaurants is showing how important they are to the local community and then providing evidence for this - links in the supporting information. You can’t just say it, you have to prove it.

Even without being able to translate your narratives, it seems you were unlucky with this rejection.

Oh! No sabía que se podía hacer eso cuando se pide apelación. Lo voy a tener en cuenta y ahora la voy a pedir como corresponde y sin miedo.

Nuevamente muchas gracias a todos por haberme ayudado, creo que se ha hablado de puntos clave donde yo y todo aquel que lea esta cadena de mensajes puede aprender mucho acerca de los criterios como de las revisiones.

Que tengan lindo día.

Gracias!

Congratulations. Moving forward, always double check your wayspot location.

100m for future reference.

Really? I don’t think I’ve ever been able to move a pin that far while doing reviews. Nominating, yes, but reviewing, no.

This pops up if you try to move the pin beyond 100m.

Going slightly off topic but I always thought that 100 metres is too much. Most location inaccuracies are avoidable with a majority being used to move in to a unoccupied cell.

Any I review that are moved in to an unoccupied cell I reject as we are not informed how the “Suggest a new location” process works I prefer a definite No.

As submitters should be using the map to confirm location and not relying on GPS then any error over a couple of metres is avoidable in most cases.

Staying off-topic, I rarely suggest a new location for a submission that is in the wrong location. Nearly every time, there is something clearly deliberate about it and the right location is in a different cell. I’m not happy taking the risk that other people won’t move it and I end up approving an abusive submission.

I may move one that stays in the same cell. I have also moved some from an incorrect cell that is already occupied in to the correct cell that is empty as I see that these are not manipulating the cell rules.

The only problem is are they mis-locating in the correct cell but to somewhere just within reach of there couch…

P/s: I do not try abusing nor condone it, asking a legitmately question

So I am going to post a lot of utility pole with flower drawing in the next month and it is really hard to pinpoint into the exact location even if I tried 5 minutes(I somehow always ended up on wrong location a minimum 3-5m)

How do you guy mark the trail marker location either so accurately? And if you guys did mistake, how much allowed meters it is?

For reference, I combined the google GPS, the streetview comparison, the block house that would be near to it.

Use your best judgement use satelite and streetview to compare where it will be

When it is on a street, google ‘satellite’ images are generally good enough to get within a couple of metres, especially for something that sticks up like a utility pole or a sign.

When it is in the countryside, accuracy will be a little bit worse, especially for things under trees, but it tends to matter a lot less because there aren’t other wayspots to conflict with and no gain from an incorrect location.

If within range from home, I use a computer to find the correct location then match it in Pokemon Go, using photos taken earlier.

I realise that not all nominations are easy which is why I stated “most”.

I am talking when it’s a building or play equipment clearly seen on the maps then they come on here complaining that it was “perfect and only about 10 meters out”.

I do try and bite my lip but sometimes :slight_smile:
