Description:  
Sáng ngày 17/3/2024, Đoàn TNCS Hồ Chí Minh phường Khánh Bình đã ra quân Chủ nhật xanh lần 1 năm 2024, thực hiện mô hình “Trụ điện nở hoa” trên tuyến đường Lê Quang Định và các tuyến đường Khánh Bình.

On the morning of March 17, 2024, the Ho Chi Minh Communist Youth Union of Khanh Binh ward launched its first “Green Sunday” campaign of 2024, implementing the “Flowering Utility Poles” model along Le Quang Dinh street and other streets in Khanh Binh. Union members removed illegal advertisements and flyers from utility poles and painted vibrant flowers to beautify the streets. This activity contributed to creating a green, clean, and beautiful urban landscape, raising public awareness of environmental protection, and promoting the proactive and volunteer spirit of Khanh Binh’s youth.

The utility poles are located on the sidewalk, visible from streetview since 2023 (over 3 years). This is a volunteer activity to “give a new look” to the poles, promoting a “green, clean, and beautiful” street environment, contributing to building a civilized community and creating a new look for the streets in Khanh Binh ward. The activity was carried out by youth union members within the framework of the first “Green Sunday” event in 2024, bringing practical community value and offering opportunities for discovery to many.

1. Evaluation on three warning email on the submission:

- The flower pole, I provided it is a volunteer event for the flower pole via the facebook link to validate it is an official artwork. I have gotten it settled in one of previous case where I got two warning before. It is in correct location, and it is in the sidewalk.  
[[Happy Ending]Getting an "abuse" rejection + "bad quality submission" + "low very generic" email for flower coloring pole](https://community.wayfarer.scopely.com/t/happy-ending-getting-an-abuse-rejection-bad-quality-submission-low-very-generic-email-for-flower-coloring-pole/108918)
- The decorated stone in a business, that one on me, I tried to explore more and try to make sense/expand of eligible criteria. I have reflected after the email and have not submit such things similar to it.
- The welcome stone to the town, I have posted it once, and I got a reply it is not affecting my ladder abuse, and the assessment of the reviewer is subject mentioned by one of the staff.  
[I got a "concerning email - generic very low severity offense" about a submission even though it is true, location correct](https://community.wayfarer.scopely.com/t/i-got-a-concerning-email-generic-very-low-severity-offense-about-a-submission-even-though-it-is-true-location-correct/116258)

I have learned from the decorated stone in a business and have not submitting anything like that since, and I think that the submission deserved an education email, but I am not sure about the other two, that would lead to my warning.

The welcome stone to town, I have considered not to submit in the future. The flower pole I have given sufficient proof. So now I am not sure what to think.

Is it possible for a staff to explain what happened, because I am really unsure if I should try to explore, and submit more, and contributing to the map?

This is the only warning. It was flagged for the object not being permanent and a decorative item which doesn’t meet the criteria.

Thanks,

Hello, thank you for the incredible feedback and the reply.

I agree this is a low standard submission and agree on the punishment given. I have reflected myself when I got that submission rejected email and know this is not from my normal standard for a good submission and wasting both reviewer and staff time.

Since I got that warning, I have not attempted to submit any similar wayspot or posting wayspot that would be “bad quality” or “horrendous stuff” and understand my mistake.

Is it possible if I can appeal the warning. This is one time I try to explore more and I think I have went too far, and I will commit to never try to do similar stuff, or behave like that again.

Thank you.

Hi,

I just want to give an update that the staff have given a valuable second chance to redeem myself based on the history of my submission and be stricter about the quality of the submission.

My warning have been removed and I hope I will not getting a warning that would reflect on my bad quality, nor any other violation that would contribute negatively to the map.

Thank you again.

Glad you got it sorted, to be honest I was shocked at the warning when I first saw your post but decided to keep quiet as you needed staff to take a look.

IMO: The first 2 are weak but they are not fake, just low quality and I would have expected them to have just been Rejected.

I see no issue with the last 1, maybe the quality gets it rejected but nothing that should result in a warning.

Hope you are back in your happy place and ready for more Wayfarering !!!
