So a few days ago I submitted a wayspot for a local restaurant/bowling alley. I meticulously placed the marker at the entrance of the building, took my pictures, wrote a description, and moved on. A few days later the wayspot gets accepted but it appears 100 yards away from where I set it, now the pokestop is next to a McDonald’s on the other side of the parking lot. It’s certainly possible that I accidentally moved the marker while scrolling or something so I may be to blame here, but it’s also possible that a reviewer suggested to move the spot and by the end of the review process no one noticed it was in the wrong place. There are two signs for the Tap House so it’s possible someone got confused and thought one the buildings under the sign by the parking lot entrance was the intended location. I’d hate to catch a suspension or have the stop removed for being in the wrong location. Is it possible to move the spot? The actual address is 1501 N Broadway, not the 1505 that was pinned. On the map it would be directly to the left of the Starbucks at the far end of that parking lot.
You can see the coordinate you submit in the thank you email that you receive when you submit. In the other hand, you can request edit for correction if its not correctly placed (edit for game purpose can be considered abuse and subject to abuse ladder system)
If it doesnt appear as pokestop, you can use help chat to request edit for correction

Your confirmation email, and the pin on the screenshot above will show where you submitted the pin, that way you know if it was user error or reviewers.
How do I request an edit of the location? This is my first time going through this.
You can access it here. Even if the wayspot doesnt appear in pogo, you can put in all detail that you know to request edit
