Cant merge locations?

Hi all, I am trying to merge 2 locations, but every time, I get no result.

1- Jawahar Navodaya Vidyalaya Jhansi
https://maps.app.goo.gl/yzWipQddBmchFSv48

2- Jawahar Navodaya Vidyalaya, Jhansi
https://maps.app.goo.gl/G4H5w66YoBt7h7Dw9

Please note that 2nd location is uneditable. I can’t add any info. Is there any way to edit such places?

It will be quite difficult to perform a merge between the two places, @samar00 , because they have different characteristics, and the second one seems to be an incomplete creation from Map Makers.

The best thing to do in situations like that is to highlight the issue in the Google Maps help community, for them to escalate the issue to the team.

Also please note that you are writing in Road Mapper, a section of the community related to a different aspect of the program.

I am tagging @TsekoV to move your post on How Tos, where the local guides ask questions or search for help

Hello @samar00 ,

As of now, I have escalated the issue.

Once I have an update, shall keep you posted further on this.

@ErmesT , In past, connect mods were able to move posts between sections. Aren’t they authorized between new forums?

Good Day

On the new Connect the posts on the General Discussion board are categorized by Labels (Topics) @deepakjhic

Without the label a post will not be visible, so the move needs to be completed by an action that require edit capability of the post.

Only a Googler can edit a post (and I am very happy of this)

Hello @samar00

The team has made necessary changes, please check. Also, please forget those available links. Let us know if there is any pop-up beside listing available.

It may take some time to be publicly available.

Thanks. I can see the change.

Do we have to report each time if we see such a case?

Hello @samar00

What you have reported were polygons, and it is not easy to add them on maps.

If there is any listing, then you can report via fake listing as duplicate.

The best section to report such issues is Browse the Google Maps Community - Google Maps Community

as mentioned by @ErmesT .

Good day

Hi @samar00 ,

I am happy to notice that you have received shelpful support from our fellows members. I wanted to let you know that I relocated your post, moving it to the relevant How-tos section, which is the most appropriate board of the forum for this kind of question.

Since this is your first post, I suggest you read more information about the forum in Your guide to Connect. :slightly_smiling_face:
