When submitting a Wayspot Appeal, make sure to include as much of the following information as possible: - Wayspot Title: Mandai Tekong Park Playground - Location _(lat/lon)_: 1.435703,103.793413 - City: Singapore - Country: Singapore - Screenshot of the Rejection Email _(do not include your personal information)_: - Additional Information _(if any)_: what’s the reason for this gym being removed? The gym had been around for over 9 years. It is located within the playground area and it’s a wonderful area for residents to gather and play. The spot is safe to access ![IMG_9411](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/wayfarer/original/3X/4/a/4ad2db8caefbac0d2229385e6c2911656cce6ca0.jpeg) ---

Hey @IalLaIccl Welcome to the forums, we are glad to have you here. Well done filling in all the information for the appeal, the wayfarer team will have a look when they are available. I have taken a look in the area. I think I might have the reason why it was removed though. This playground has another waypspot connected to it, which makes this one a duplicate. it is called **The Monkey Jungle Playground.** ---

How are you seeing Monkey Jungle Playground? I looked at 1.435703,103.793413 on the wayfarer map (and submission map) and couldn’t see any wayspots for this playground. ---

Thanks for the appeal, @IalLaIccl We gave this a second look and decided to restore the Wayspot in question. ---

Unfortunately the restored Wayspot (circled in blue) now appears as a spot used in other Niantic games rather than a Pokemon Go Gym which used to be. Based on the in-game location map attached, any chance for others nearby Pokestop to convert into a Gym? Any expert here can advise? ![IMG_9927](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/wayfarer/original/3X/7/f/7fef9b89c4ff10df5afa406c1f44495bca151ac1.jpeg) ---

Can you give the long / lat co-ordinates. The most likely answer is the proximity rule that states that only 1 waypoint to be a Stop / Gym within a cell. Sometimes you will get 2 in a cell but 1 should be removed when Niantic “re-calc” the location. ---

It was answered above by @AMG7070 if you combine his posts. Location is 1.435703,103.793413 This playground has another waypspot connected to it, which is in the same cell, as shown by @AMG7070 it is called **The Monkey Jungle Playground.** ---

Thanks, did find the location. Not sure if shown on the other thread but here is the visual… ![Screenshot 2026-03-13 114101](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/wayfarer/original/3X/a/b/ab5eb1734f6d3d9fdc6851b9f374a905b360e447.jpeg) ---

Since there can only be one pokething per L17 S2 cell, it will not be able to appear in pokemon go as a pokestop or gym. There can only be three gyms in a L14 S2 cell, and there are three already. So for the time being neither this nor other nearby wayspots can become a gym
