The preface to all the clarifications is here: [Wayfarer Criteria Challenge - #4 by ScopelyExpTintino](https://community.wayfarer.scopely.com/t/wayfarer-criteria-challenge/103/4)

> **Submissions Summary:** While there are very unique and interesting nominations that would make great Wayspots, there were others that seemed to tip-toe very closely to the rejection borderline. We hope that the clarifications and poins made below will help you with your nominations next time you come across a great Wayspot candidate. Several things were very apparent across majority of the submissions, check out these points below:
> 
> 1. Our Eligibility and Acceptance Criteria do not mean that the nomination will or should be accepted. There are many great nominations that meet one or two criteria but then end up being clear rejections based on location, intended use, presentation, and overall falling within the rejection criteria.
> 2. For many of the submissions, we kept asking ourselves “What story does this place tell? What makes it interesting?” There were many submissions with potentially great Wayspots but the description, titles, and supporting information could have used some work. If this is something interesting to you, tell us why. This can help take what may be a generic and commonplace nomination to the next level and make it a more interesting and eligible candidate.
> 3. Do what you can to prove its uniqueness, permanency, and access. Dig a little deeper into its story to share with us. Keep this in mind with something that may be generic to some people but is actually important in the local community. Think about the supporting information you’re adding (photo, description, pin location, etc).
> 
> These points were a higher level summary of the submissions and points that kept being questions. Now we’ll dive deeper into some of the submissions. While I wish there was a better way to show this, I wanted to make sure we gave you more information than not enough. Hope this helps! (1/6)

Then it goes into a “deeper diver” that builds on this.

If you skip this part, you miss the main thought process behind the clarifications.
