So Accepted Stops aren’t showing up?

Hey there, so I’ve recently been trying to add some new Pokéstops to my town and ALLOT are being accepted which is absolutely fantastic!! However not all of them are showing up and even some that are popping up, could use some assistance I did send a message through the AI system however like we all know there is no guarantee that will be seen, any ideas what I should do, are some stops maybe too close together that they need to be moved I’m not sure but here is the stops I’m looking for





Welcome,

Please read the following…

Hey, great work getting things approved!

That is only the first step to the process. The second step is that Pokemon GO has inclusion rules. If your approved wayspot doesn’t meet these inclusion rules to be stops or gyms, they won’t be immediately visible in the game.

What now? These hidden wayspots might become power spots.

What if they don’t? If any of the pokestops or gyms that are blocking yours from appearing are ever removed (for legitimate reasons), yours are ready to pop up as replacements.

Note: Any attempt to move a wayspot away from its location or to remove a valid wayspot just so that these appear is considered map manipulation, which will earn you points on the abuse ladder.

Short story, there is nothing you can do if those are already in correct position. But u may want to learn more about S2 cells to prevent future dissappointment.

Just warning. Once you learn how s2 cell works, know that missplacement of wayspot submission into empty cell for game purpose is subject to abuse ladder system.

Some bigger wayspot also might have multiple posible positioning like below

Assuming C and D is already pokestop, submitting it at A will create pokestop, while submitting it at B will create powerspot.
