Hi @MahabubMunna

Just wanted to let you know that the name in English looks OK now. But the location is still off.

BTW, would love to hear about your experiences from local guides working together locally as a team. What are the benefits you see? Maybe you could share this in a separate post.

Cheers

Hello @MahabubMunna

I find the original label “Dhaka College” still intact near the “Dhaka College Playground” at plus code P9PJ+3Q Dhaka, Bangladesh.

However, this original location is not searchable.

Nevertheless, you can still try all the three actions as below,

  1. Suggest an edit by shifting the pin to fall at the right location.

I had come across a similar incidence earlier & then relocation of pin helped to restore the POI at the correct place.

  1. Use the send feedback option to highlight the error.

  2. Edit your post here by including the screenshots of the incorrect and correct locations & then tag a moderator.
