Suddenly it happens! Within two and a half hour today, i got positive replys for all five of above mentioned portal suggestions. I had earlier got to review my own edits made from the Wayfarer app and also gotten answers if they were accepted or denied, so even if it took long time waiting for answer, they were not wasted time doing. But the wayspot nominations i thought where lost for ever. Until today that is.
You do understand that these will likely never become Niantic game locations since you submitted them through the Wayfarer app?

Is that factual?
A large proportion of mine from it’s initial release are in Go.
1/14 don’t appear in game for me.
I do not use the app, since we were asked not to, so cannot confirm from personal experience. But that is what I have been told by many people. I have also been told that this is a change from how it initially worked. I thought that you were one of the people who confirmed that they are unlikely to show up. And please note that I used the word “unlikely” to allow for those fringe cases where they do go live in a game. But more often we have see that they just create a Wayspot that will now be a duplicate for someone trying to submit the poi through the games as we were asked.
1/14 isn’t really fringe case.
I haven’t got a clue whether it’s unlikely more that they might not.
I guess we will see if they sync. into Ingress (since they are more likely to show up there than in PoGo) the next one or two days or not. If they do I’ll let you know.
please let us know either way.
But lesson learned, I have not used the Wayfarer app since then and I won’t use it for submitting new Waypoints in the future. It takes to long time to get them reviewed and does not give any ingame benefits.

40 submitted from between 9/11/22 - 23/11/22
14 accepted with 1 never appearing in Go and the rest rejected
About 90% of the 40 were ones that I’d already submitted via Go but I couldn’t see their status as my account had just been reset.
Most of the 26 rejected via the app were later accepted via normal review on my ‘hidden’ contributions during the UK challenge.
I wouldn’t recommend using the app to submit but I’d recommend using it to see the database like lots of people here do whether they are Ambassadors or not.
I’m not going to pretend I don’t know it exists to other community members when I and a lot of you are using it.
Thank you for letting me know.
