Wayspot rejected fast

Hello guys can you tell me what’s wrong with this nomination? It’s a local only business.



Ok. You mentioned that it’s a historical building. What makes it a historical building?

I know what I am about to say may sound rude, but please note that it’s not intended. So if it comes across that way, I apologise. I could nominate every business in my local neighbourhood and say it’s historical without backing it up.

What we would need is some context. Is it a listed building? What is the history behind the building? Besides this, what would make it a great place to socialise? Is there somewhere inside the building where people could meet up, sit down, eat, drink and be merry? (I use this as an example).

I don’t know why I should positively on this one based on what I can see. I would need some more context and information.

The “Wayfarer criteria” rejection indicates this was an ML (machine learning ai) decision. The email will say something about “our team” and happens around 20 to 24 hours after submitting usually.

If this is an eligible business, i would suggest resubmitting with a photo more clearly centered on the sign. But I am not convinced this meets criteria as a great place to exercise, explore, or be social.

I don’t want to use that much time on it when they are so harsh and fast to reject nominations. I rly think I got the information needed. If you look all the wayspots around and close. But it was worth a shot. I understand now why there is so few and new wayspots in Hadsund since I started pmg 2016. The shop and building and area is the centrum of Hadsund shopping and socializing. The last 2 nominations I got accepted didn’t not become Pokemon way-spots, which will make a whole arena, the best area in my city to socialize, a good Pokemon spot. But Bølgen which is the largest art piece/fountain/sculpture in the city is only a wayspot. So when ppl play Pokemon at the most durable place in the city they can reach 1 wayspot.

Maybe try the bookstore on the other side of the street :woman_shrugging:t2:

The bog store Is a big chain in dk.

This is private now but yes old and iconic. The yellow building at right is the old cinema. Closet 10years ago.

I’ve lived all my life in this area.

Edited by a mod to remove personal information

I do have some issues with the spelling and grammar in English, and I take it it isn’t your native language. Keep in mind that you can use any language you’d like to submit nominations, and it’s not limited to English.

Also, you don’t provide much information about what makes this building historic, such as when it was built, if it was designed by a famed architect, housed other historical locations before the clothing store, etc. Context is extermely important for all nominations.

Also, please refrain for revealing personal info here in the forums.

If you look around the other way-spots, they don’t got much information either. And you are correct English is not my native language, but it’s much easier for everyone if it’s on English.

I disagree that it’s easier for everyone to have them in English. It’s best to use the language you’re most comfortable with.

I’m in the US, and I only speak English. However, we get nominations in several different languages, with Spanish being the 2nd most used. I don’t knock any of the nominators using Spanish, as it most likely is the language they are most comfortable about. Reviewers have translation tools available, so we can check to make sure the info is correct and accurate.

Revealing your age and where you live is personal info, especially to those in that area of the world.

Also took my driving license 10years ago at the røde hus. But the front store/facade is an empty store now. Upstairs is private apartments.

It’s still best to avoid providing this info, as it still is personal.

The forums have never required ANYONE to use English. Everyone is free to use the language they are most comfortable with, especially since there is a translation tool.

Well maybe you are 1 of the reasons there is so few way-spots in Europe . You can always edit and help post information.

I’m getting sick of this. Have a good day and thanks to the ones who helped me.

I’m in the US, I can’t even access any Wayspots in Europe. Using something to hide my real location is cheating/abusive, and I would most likely get a ban for doing so. I’d never do such a thing, as I don’t want to lose my access to any of Niantic’s products.

I’ve only ever submitting within the US, and have been at the location I submitted at. I typically only submit within 2 locations, as those are where I spend the most time.

Titel og beskrivelse bør være på dansk, når det er et wayspot i Danmark.

Tilgengæld kan det være en fordel (men er det ikke nødvendigvis! ) at begrundelsen for din nominering er på engelsk, men de fleste danske nomineringer vurderes af andre danskere.

De andre wayspots kan være accepteret under andre kriterier.

Din begrundelse er ikke stærk nok til at få accepteret din nominering. Du skal gribe det helt anderledes an, hvis du skal have en chance.

Enten skal du nominere bygningen eller forretningen. Efter min mening kommer du næppe igennem med forretningen. Hvis bygningen er ikonisk eller hisorisk så beskriv det og bak det op med fakta (links!).

Held og lykke med det! :slightly_smiling_face::+1:

Opgiver også butikken, valgte den kun fordi det var den eneste som var lokal. Altså nu når fodbold mål og små sten, skilte, kan blive stops., hvorfor skulle jeg så sidde og skrive en roman om stedet, nu når man faktisk allerede kan Google alt om stedet. Har fået 2 stops godkendet og placeret i byen, og så Har jeg 3 andre som er godkendt men ikke blev til Pokemon stops.
