The new criteria clarifications ( Trails & Markers ) sure say they are, but then here’s a topic where @NianticLC rejects an appeal for one: Approved wayspot and old wayspot disappeared days after approval So which is it, @NianticTintino @NianticAaron @NianticAtlas ? Do we just wipe our ass with the …

What’s your source? Because I highly doubt that. That is an official intersection point marker of the province-wide hiking trail network. Those don’t just “get removed”. And there are plenty of local Ingress players who love maliciously reporting portals to get them removed, so I suspect that’s what…

@NianticAaron personally i do understand that there might be a country where these things have gotten out of hand. there are cities in germany where abuse also happens (but noone cares to report the fake things). In the long run these discussions here just unsettle reviewers. Adding to that, the pe…

Actually, I’ve already figured it out. [Screenshot_20240531_174403_Samsung Internet] The map on the trail network site clearly shows pole #70 on a four-way crossroads. [Screenshot_20240531_175054_Discord] But that’s clearly not where the wayspot was located. I’ve circled the crossroads where i…

Stop removing valid trailmarkers i have already seen ten trailmarkers disappearing while they were on correct location!

The sign with ‘Rondje Eindhoven left’ looks like a good trail marker. Shows the trail name with a direction to follow a fixed unique route. The sign below with ‘97 left’ isn’t part of a unique or fixed route. These signs are used to create your own custom routes. These don’t have a unique name and/…

If those two yellow arrows that say “public footpath” on them in the clarification topic are good enough (which, judging by the thumbs up next to them, they are), then so are any of the ones I posted.

I couldn’t read the small text on that image as there was no zoom option available unlike the other supplied photos. Assumed they had a trail name on them instead of simply “public footpath”. Now I was going to say that perhaps they only prefer walking related trail markers but that doesn’t seem to…

When it is not a trail with a specific trail name you are going to have to make a strong case. It is the trail that is the “object” being submitted and this is done using the markers as anchor points along the trail where it changes direction for example so it is unique to that point. You need to de…

So, @NianticAaron , can I go ahead and do what I wanted to do in this post? [image] So are trail markers eligible again or not? General Discussion No offense, Aaron, but that is honestly an appalling “solution”. I’m talking about hundreds of these trail markers that Niant…

I see no reason why cycling trail markers should be any less eligible than hiking trail markers. Especially not in the Netherlands, which has a massive cycling culture and probably the best cycling infrastructure in the world.

So are trail markers eligible again or not?
