Chain sushi restaurant keeps putting promo message on their venue names. Is it a good practice?

Google Maps tips & tricks

Hello! Lately I have been seeing a local chain sushi restaurant Genki Sushi updating their venue names - from simply “Genki Sushi” to “元気寿司 Genki Sushi｜{region}｜壽司刺身｜堂食外賣自取優惠”, which the Chinese words mean “Sushi and Sashimi” and “Discounts for dine-in and take-out”.

I tried to edit them back to “Genki Sushi” only. But after a while they have all been renamed again. Do you think this is a good practice to name their shops? And can shop owners just put on any messages they want on their venues…? :thinking:

There are dozens of them but here are some of the examples:

Hi @jerque

I daily feel the same pain from getting legit edits to remove naming guideline violations reversed. This happens both repeatedly and quickly.
