What are little things (that are not Wayfarer abuse etc.) that irk or annoy you on Wayfarer? A few of mine as examples: • Trailmarkers that are not numbered, being numbered in the title • A UK specific one, but postboxes that either don’t say which monarch it is for, or say the wrong one, or don’…

[IMG_3931] So I had asked this and was told it shouldn’t be a spot because it’s unsafe but the sign is for the pond in the center of the trail that loops around it as a warning . My thought on this is people are normally looking at Pokémon go on their phones and not the area around them so I thoug…

Welcome to the forum! The main criteria for a Wayspot to be accepted ( Niantic Wayfarer ) is: Must meet at least one of the three eligibility criteria A great place for exploration A great place for exercise A great place to be social with others Since this is a warning sign, I don’t see how …

My pet peeves: 1- Lower case titles and descriptions. 2- Poor grammar. 3- “Dear reviewer” requests in supporting info. 4- “No pokestops in the area”, then you go check the map and there are plenty. 5- Main photos with too much foreground or background (road, sidewalk, sky, other objects). 6- M…

You know, I started writing up a big list here…I’m prone to hyperfixation on small details, after all! But I thought it over and decided that might be disheartening to newer Wayfinders here who might have made those mistakes (mistakes in my opinion, anyway) and that’s not my intention. I don’t wa…

Appreciate that info and I did not nominate it or the pond .

Memorials and plaques of people not noteable. Generics pools. Generic businesses. All schools. Foot bridges.

Two that I’m noticing recently in reviews. Main photo and supporting photo are the same, so I can’t tell where the Wayspot is located, or if someone is trying for a fake because the object doesn’t actually exist there Supporting photo doesn’t contain the Wayspot at all (a recent one was a E II R p…

Another one for me: Submitting a wayspot and having it rejected for the wrong reasons (like being rejected for PRP when it’s clearly not).

I nominated a foot bridge before checking here, comments made me think that it would not be accepted but it got straight through… My main pet peeve are the trail markers that are just a disc (or even just a sticker) with an arrow. One of the questions include “is it unique?”, well no as there about…
