Hi, welcome to the forum!

I removed the tags to the entire staff, please be considerate of their time.

I’m sorry to tell you that this wayspot is not going to appear in Pokémon GO as it is blocked by the imported photoless “Sh’iv Mandir” which you can probably see in-game. It’s unlucky pin placement.

Please check this post for details on how spacing rules work in Pokémon GO:

Stop approved in March still not published in game

Although the prompt tells you that you are submitting a Pokestop, you are actually submitting a Wayspot. In order to go live in Pokemon Go, a Wayspot has to be alone in an L17 S2 cell. I will link a good article about that: I want to be clear that pinning away from the thing you are nominating so that it is alone in the cell is abuse, but you can certainly use this knowledge to help you decide where to look. If you want to leave the location here, someone can check to see if this is the case …

For your next nominations, I would strongly recommend using a supporting photo that is different from your main photo (both must be taken by yourself). In most cases reviewers are going to need this to verify the location of the wayspot.

I would also recommend not using supporting information to say how this wayspot is going to be great for Pokémon GO, but rather to say how it meets criteria and whether there is anything else the reviewers need to know to verify its importance or location.

Finally, I have moved the post to General Discussion since as frustrating and unfortunate this may be, this is not a bug.

Those imports, the ones that just have a placeholder image instead of a photo, are used by Pokemon Go, but not by Ingress, so I can’t help you with an image showing both on the iitc map of portals. But here is what the L17 S2 cell looks like around your Wayspot:

If “Sh’iv Mandir” is not accurately placed, you can submit a location edit for it.

I was informed it’ll get published within 48 Hours

Read again what it actually says… “Remember that not all accepted nominations will appear in all Niantic games (and may take up to 48 hours to appear)”
