Why this is not accpeted

When submitting a Wayspot Appeal, make sure to include as much of the following information as possible:

  • Wayspot Title: placa del buen trabajo
  • Location (lat/lon):-31.412887, -64.159728
  • City:cordoba
  • Country:argentina
  • Screenshot of the Rejection Email (do not include your personal information):

  • Additional Information (if any):I cant understand… this is a perfect spot… of an university… with a web site (https://upinnovacioneducativa.com.ar/) and have something really meaningful, it even marked that

This seems like something that is mass produced and unremarkable. Comparable to a stop sign. Those sort of things are not normally accepted because they are too generic to serve as a “destination” for exploration.

Now I understand why they don’t accept it. Clearly, short-sighted people only see the sign and don’t realize that the sign indicates the location of the university institute; even with a website, they don’t understand what it is.

This rejection reason indicates that humans have not seen this nomination yet. The automated process is a machine learning model that checks nominations around 24 hours after they have been submitted and can reject the ones it does not see as eligible.

If you are convinced that your nomination should have been accepted, you have two appeals, each on a 15 day counter before you can use it again. Human staff members will review it.

That assumes that the institute itself would meet the criteria…

I was thinking in terms of the sign itself as an art object, since the title refers to it as a plaque.

Hello
I am moving this to Nomination Support as appeals is for some set admin tasks, and this can be appealed via contribution page.

I’ve tried like 20 times to get this approved but I don’t know why cant be voted. there is something wrong with the system…

Have you tried this yet?

yes… tried…but I don’t know who is the one seeing my nominations but it´s been a while since I don’t get one approved , for example..


this was approved… and in the other building 2 blocks away another painting wasn’t…
and how the reviews see the thing is ridiculous…

they rejected it because they DONT read and assume this submit is at a school… not an university…

If they all are rejected by the auto system( nickname Emily) then you have to appeal.
It is not unusual for Emily to reject buildings. We do not know, nor should we, what it is that the system considers reject worthy.
Essentially your building looks like many others with this art work that is not instantly recognisable as art. But it is probably not just the photo.
Do you send in the same photo?

It is either a case of let us help you which we are happy to do or you decide to call it a day on this nomination.

I used like 20 different photos… 5 friends tried… there is something weird in this area since we are all getting rejections… here is another one…


another one…

another one…

another one…

and all valid things EVEN a BAR with 20 years in the city was rejected… and all this thing appear in the maps.

Ok
The first 3 are all auto rejects.
Let’s look at the 4th which is rejected by the community because they felt you hadn’t made the case for the bar being significant.
We really need to see the full nomination in order to give the best advice.
A general point is that you probably know this place well and without knowing it you may be forgetting that the strangers reviewing it are not familiar with it. So all the little things that make it special need to be drawn to their attention clearly and explicitly.

well i don’t know what to do… getting tired of trying…

I don’t know if your comment is a joke or if you’re just commenting to get attention, or what kind of comment it is, because it’s very simple: if you don’t live there, you don’t know the bar. Even if it didn’t have a website, just going to Google and seeing if it exists and has at least 100 reviews is more than enough…

I have moved some responses that raised questions about a separate wayfinders submission to a different topic.

Providing this as a link.

This is helpful.
Let’s concentrate on this one nomination.
You can take a screenshot of the google rating and add it as one of the 5 supporting images if you submit via the web. And add a link in the supplementary text.
As the submitter you need to put all the evidence as to why this is good in front of the reviewer. Reviewing takes time and effort……make it easy for the reviewer to say yes.

look the “reason” of the rejection… nobody reads anything in the moment of the review…and the “note” from niantic is clearly a joke…the “human” here did not read ANYTHING… its say university in google maps


even if you see it in a map you see what it is…

That link takes me to a website for a company that provides services to businesses and professionals.

A reverse-image search of the photo gives me results where the “AI” summary is “This is a sign for Goodjob Indumentaria y Seguridad, a company located in Córdoba, Argentina, that manufactures workwear and uniforms .”

This definitely isn’t a school for under-18s, but it also isn’t anything that is eligible as a University, because it isn’t one.

(that was a reply to the intiial post)
