You can agree or disagree with how anyone defines what a nature sign entails. At the end of the day in Wayfarer, “how does the POI relate with the criteria” is the best measure towards a decision.
If you are getting “nature sign” from the categories, please read through that list a little more to convince yourself that it is not a list of what is eligible. It has “Elementary school” and “Fire station”. It appears that they imported a list from somewhere else, and it has nothing to with Wayfarer. I suspect these may have something to do with Niantic selling its data for use by other developers. People who submit in Ingress don’t even have to choose categories at the present time.
Ty for for taking time improving my understandings.
To be honest, I still dont understand defenition of nature sign.
I can agree its some sort of boundry, but its free for all to walk and talk and do what you want, but you are not allowed bring back wood from this area.
I might be too caught up If you look away from everything pogo-related, what is the definition of nature signs ? Im curious
This applies to streets too and those are generally not eligible without further context. A better question, what type of recreation does it support?
Wayfarer is already game agnostic. The game permits submissions but is subject to criteria not set by PGO.
At the very wide definition of it, any sign that relates to nature. One can even argue survey markers and any sign containing a tree is a nature sign. I highlight my previous comment
To drive my point even further, fitting a category does not entail it is eligible.
This is the wrong question. “Nature signs” are not categorically eligible.
You need to ask yourself how it meets criteria of a great place for exercise, exploration, or being social. You need to prove that it meets at least one of these in your nomination. You do not need to prove that it is a “Nature sign”
This does give “Nature signs” as an example of something that could be eligible so I understand the confusion: Niantic Wayfarer
But you are overlooking this part:
A note on eligibility: if a Wayspot nomination meets one of the below criteria, that’s great! But remember that eligibility alone isn’t sufficient to turn a nomination into an accepted Wayspot.
I can explain in norwegian if you want. That list is simply examples og things that can meet criteria. But the criteria is not a list, its the “A great place to explore… socialize… exercise.”
