No Pokestops shows up in my entire neighborhood even though there are many niantic wayspots. I looked it up and saw only 2 reaaons this happens is either 1-There is another pokestop within the square(which the entire neighborhood is empty) 2- It is on private proporty which requested removel(which cant be the case as there are many different wayspots from arts to parks but none if them shows up) So i assumed there must be bug on this side of the map, i just moved to this neigborhood and having no pokestops is pretty hard. How can i resolve this if not from here ? Its in Meclis(neighborhood) / Sancaktepe / Istanbul / Turkey ---

There was plenty of wayspots before the Intel Map split for Pogo so questions are… How are you checking there is no Stops / Gyms? Is it possible something like military base has blocked the area? (sometimes they go beyond the base). ---

Welcome to the forum @Amalurr How are you checking for wayspots? Are you using the upload nomination map? ![Screenshot_20240125-144714__01](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/wayfarer/original/2X/8/8ee49940a225c7cc81be7fc38bc9f936be131f97.jpeg) If you are using this map, just be aware that not all of the orange wayfarer icons on the map are actual wayspots. A lot of them are Power Spot imports from a third party database that are not part of the wayfarer database. Under normal circumstances I’d say you could try to ascertain which are Power Spots by their lack of pictures when you tap on them, but as you’re in Türkiye, this won’t necessarily be a feasible strategy, as Türkiye also had an import of data from Foursquare, and those locations _are_ in the database as wayspots and most of them also didn’t have any images. So it would be pretty difficult to distinguish which locations have come from which import. ---

I have looked into this neighborhood and everything is working as intended. There are no issues with Wayspots. ---

I need location coordinates to be able to check the exact location. Please share it if you’re comfortable sharing it. ---

I am checking from the pokestop nomination screen because at first i was going to nominate some things byt realized most if the things are already marked as wayspots. No military base around as i know but the area I live almost seems to be blocked for some reason ---

Yes of course, thank you The coordinates to the wayspot that is close to me in my right side in the ss shows up as XXXX in google maps **Mod edit:** Removed the location details due to privacy concerns. ---

Thank you, yes im using the pokestop nomination map, so even if i cant know which is a wayspot, will it still be tagged duplicate if i nominate them ? Is there any way to turn them into active wayspots from powerspots ---

I have checked again and can confirm that there are no issues at this location. I see Power spots around this location. ---

Okey thank you, Is there a way i can change these to wayspots? If i nominate one as a wayspot will it be tagged for duplicates ? ---

I can confirm that I nominated the point of interest represented by an imported power spot, and it was not tagged as a duplicate by the community. There was recently a post where an appeals reviewer did mark an appealed nomination as a duplicate of an imported power spot, but this decision was overturned. The issue with submitting these imported power spots as wayspots is that they often do not meet criteria to be a wayspot. Check out this post for clarification: > [@Clarifications on Pokémon Go Power Spots \[Discussion\]](https://community.wayfarer.scopely.com/t/clarifications-on-pokemon-go-power-spots-discussion/58655/1): > > **Where are Power Spots coming from? How are Power Spots chosen?** > > Similarly to Pokéstops and Gyms, Power Spots are built upon the Niantic Map. > > Currently the locations where Power Spots can appear are a combination of **unused wayspots** and a **recently imported new database**. > > - **Unused wayspots** : as many of you know, not all the wayspots available on our Niantic Map are used as pokéstops/gyms in Pokemon Go. Those unused wayspots have a chance to host a Power Spot. > - **New database** : To enhance the density of locations, particularly in areas previously devoid of them, we have recently incorporated a fresh database of locations. Note that those locations were imported while not necessarily abiding to our Wayfarer criterias. > > Since Power Spots are transient, in a given area they will rotate between the available locations. > > **What are the eligibility criteria for Power Spots?** > Why are some clearly ineligible locations according to Wayfarer criteria, appearing as Power Spots? > > As mentioned in the previous question, we imported locations some of which did not align with our wayspot criterias. There is no eligibility criteria for Power Spots per se because we do not allow explorers to submit Power Spots, only Wayspots are submittable. If you find something that is an imported power spot (the placeholder picture instead of a real photo is a good sign that it was an import) that meets criteria, then you can submit it.
