I get a second strike for uploading a little free library I’m very disappointed in people and now I will no longer be uploading pokestops in the future because I keep getting strikes and don’t want to lose my account
Hello @RichChief,
Could you show us the response you got? Something not being accepted doesn’t usually result in getting an warning or strike.
This may be a misunderstanding of some sort.

If you want feedback as to why your nomination may have been considered abuse, then you can post screenshots of it here for advice.

@elijustrying looks like this goes with a previous post if you want to merge
I think you can get warnings for either/both nominations and reviewing inaccurately.
You mentioned recently nominating a Little Free Library (LFL), so let’s start there. Can you share your nomination of the LFL from your contributions page? We would need the screenshot of the Title, Description, Main photo, support photo, and support text.
Don’t really have it anymore so I’m choosing never to upload it again or no more nominations if I’m going to end up getting a strick
Your nominations never go away on Niantic Wayfarer
where is the little free library? this looks like a mailbox from what you have let us see.

I realize you are worried and frustrated. We may be able to help figure out why this happened. But completely up to you.
You should be able to logins your Wayfarer details here: Niantic Wayfarer
The Contributions tab will have all the details similar to below:
If you choose not to share, the only thing I could guess on is that the LFL was on a Singke Family Private Residential Property (SFPRP) or a School (K-12). Both of these are reasons for rejection. And if they were accepted there, it is possible that someone reported it.
The little free library is above the blue mailbox we shaped it like a mailbox to be unique
could we please see the whole nomination? if you can prove that this is a little free library and not just a mailbox, and that the location is eligible (not SFPRP or a school for example) then this could be a case where you need to submit an appeal for the nomination to explain this.
Not sure how to prove it will not be a mailbox so kinda just giving up on the whole experience of uploading poke stops
well if you ever find something you do want to submit that you think might be eligible, please feel free to come back here and post in Nomination Support before you submit it.

I mean, this is your chance to clear the abuse out and remove the strike. With a little effort, there’s a lot of community who loves to prove when Niantic gets it wrong and would love to help you out.

Could you get a closer picture of it that maybe shows the books or sign that says it’s a Little Free Library?
That you’re not willing to share full details of the nomination is not helping your case that you haven’t done something wrong.
Maybe you haven’t, but everyone else in the thread is trying to help out and your refusal to help yourself isn’t helping.
