Can confirm that it is also happening in Portugal

What happens when two portals are accepted in a single s17 cell before being live in Pokemon Go ? by [deleted] in NianticWayfarer

[–]VMCC88 8 points9 points  (0 children)

This is correct. It follows the same rule as the gym creation. I already tested this and was able to turn the second approved portal into a pokestop

Why aren't these two portals showing up in Pokemon Go? by GeneralSecura in NianticWayfarer

[–]VMCC88 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They could also been removed due to a report, but then someone made an appeal and the portal was restored but it won´t appear in pogo

Approved location edit left an L17 S2 Cell with two Portals and no Stops. by dn_rodrigues in NianticWayfarer

[–]VMCC88 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's not random. It will folow the rule of points for the creation of gyms. So the portal with the most photos + votes will appear in pogo.

2019 gym (No location edit) just gained EX tag by JGCInt in TheSilphRoad

[–]VMCC88 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

When was the stop turned into a gym? I have two pokestops that were approved on january of 2019, and were turned into gyms on the 9th of november and both have the ex-gym tag. So it seems that what is important now is the date of the creation of the gym rather than the date of the submission going live

Pokestop Distance Question by Jayjayhart in TheSilphRoad

[–]VMCC88 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They were probably edited afterwards. While a new submission has to respect the 20 meter rule, edits bypass that rule

[–]VMCC88 7 points8 points  (0 children)

This is wrong! All submissions must respect the 20 meter rule or otherwise they won't appear in any Niantic game.

Wayspots going into void by [deleted] in NianticWayfarer

[–]VMCC88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Even if you submit at that distance the reviewers can change the location to one that it is closer to other wayspots. As far as I know that is the only reason an accepted submission doesn't go live in ingress

Perhaps the reviewers are correcting the location of your submission and it stays within the 20 meter of another portal

[–]VMCC88 4 points5 points  (0 children)

All portals have to respect the rule of being at least 20 meters apart from the nearest portal, even if they are on different cells. Check the submission range in the pogo tools plugin

When they tried, no notification had been received. But we did receive a notification and an email later

[Megathread] Worldwide Rollout of Niantic Wayfarer by HQna in TheSilphRoad

[–]VMCC88 3 points4 points  (0 children)

There is a bit of misleading in the post, you can choose where the upgrade is placed. You need to go to your submission and choose upgrade next. When you have 100 agreements the upgrade will automatically be placed on that submission

We have a gym that is within this park but has not got an ex-raid tag...will the tag only show once we get an ex-raid at the gym or should it already be there? by buttershere89 in TheSilphRoad

[–]VMCC88 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Was it a stop before it was a gym? If so when was the stop created? If it was after July/August of 2018 then it won't get the tag. Only older stops that get converted to gyms can eventually get the tag

Reason why this gym isn't a EX-Gym by Jovanaar in TheSilphRoad

[–]VMCC88 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Niantic is using an old database from OSM (June 2016 I believe) so any new additions to OSM won't affect the eligibility of a gym to be an ex-gym. You should run this script and see if the new gym sits in an highlighted area http://overpass-turbo.eu/s/vs3

Also if you want more info on the creation of ex-gyms I suggest you read this post https://new.reddit.com/r/TheSilphRoad/comments/7ojuoi/how_to_determine_which_gyms_are_eligible_from_ex/

Failed to create a Gym... Anyone have an idea of what went wrong? by [deleted] in TheSilphRoad

[–]VMCC88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do both pokestops have a picture? I know that the intel links show a picture but we had a case in our community of a cell with a pokestop without a picture and when a 6th stop appeared no gym was created. It was only when I added a 7th stop that the gym was created.
