So i had 4 stops here and a week later they where all gone. In Ingress they’re still there months later and you still see in Pokémon Go the red marker that shows it’s there. The Level 14 cells there are empty. Is there a possibility to return those 4 stops? It would rally help the local community!

They were likely removed because you’re meant to only have one wayspot to represent the entire course, rather than one per hole.

> Both sports are great ways to exercise and socialize. Wayfarer regards the whole course/play area in each sport as one field of play. This means there should be one Wayspot, which could be the first tee or a marker at the start to represent the whole course. The individual start and end points of each section of the course should not be submitted. There is potential that other qualifying objects exist within the large area of a course. If individually eligible these may be submitted for consider…

Hi there, I think these can be Wayspots because it’s part of a little trail and these are like behind the people who want to play discgolf. If i would’ve submitted the goal of those discgolf things then there would be a risk. But now there is no risk at any time

Like the clarification states (emphasis added by me):

> [@Golf & Disc Golf Courses](https://community.wayfarer.scopely.com/t/golf-disc-golf-courses/12470/1):
>
> **Wayfarer regards the whole course/play area in each sport as one field of play. This means there should be one Wayspot, which could be the first tee or a marker at the start to represent the whole course.** The individual start and end points of each section of the course should not be submitted.

Niantic has been actively removing individual disc golf hole nominations, as can be seen by searching the #Wayspot Appeals section for the word golf. They do not count as a trail, they count as a sports course.

But the thing is, they are still there when you are gonna make a new stop, you see the red marker.

Yes. I disagree with this, but Niantic has only been removing the game locations when Disc Golf holes are reported. They leave the Wayspots. I have no idea why they handle them this way. If these were to become Power Spots and host Gigantamax battles, they would be more disruptive to disc golfers and put more PoGo players in harm’s way. But maybe people will stop submitting them if the game locations are gone.

Yeah, that’s true. They sadly aren’t powerspots…
