Looking to be better at nominations.
I’m starting to read arcticals.
Just thought I’d reach out.

Go check out the criteria clarifications and wayfarer basics pages here on the forum. They are full of useful info.

These are very helpful because it provide some example. If you have question, you are free to ask

I like to point new folks to this topic:

It’s hard to give advice without knowing your general environment - there’s things I could say that just don’t make sense if you live in certain parts of the world, for example, but are super useful in others.

For example: nearly thirty percent of my approved wayspots (31 out of 106) are swimming pools in hotel, apartment, condo, or mobile home park communities. They’re everywhere, and (with good pictures and allowable locations) almost a sure thing nomination (unless the reviewers misapply the ā€œprivate propertyā€ thing, which I have had happen three times, all three were overturned on appeal and are currently live in game).

But in other parts of the world (I’m in Southern California) those might be rare or non-existent.

Meanwhile, I’ve been adding national cycle network signage and stone carvings on old buildings. :upside_down_face:

It really does just depend where you are.
