Hi @KarthicKumar1989 , welcome to Connect and thank you for asking.
Also thanks to @PrasadVR and @WilfriedB for tagging me here.
First of all I want to inform you that, to keep Connect organized, I merged your two identical post. In this way you will not receive duplicate answers. If you post in the wrong category of Connect you can easily change it by editing the header of your post.
Did you noticed for which kind of contributions you lost the points? Knowing this could help a lot to troubleshoot your issue.
There are two most common reasons for loosing points:
- The place where you contributed has been removed from Google Maps, as mentioned by @WilfriedB . In this case the review will disappear and the photos will be associated to an unknown place.
- You deleted some of your answers. This can be done manually from your profile in Google Maps (on desktop only) or on My Activity, like @AbdullahAM tolkd you. Please read: New in Google Maps: A Better Way to Manage our Answers, for more details
Let me just add a note about the deduction of points because our contributions are against the rules.
In theory you are right, @AbdullahAM , and it is mentioned in Local Guides points, levels & badging - Computer - Google Maps Help
“My points went down. What happened?
Points may be deducted if your contribution is determined to be in violation of our content policy. Contributions that violate our policies do not count toward your Local Guides level.”
However they says “may be”, not “will be”. It means that it depends of the type of violations (e.g. fake edits).
As it is possible to appeal for photos and reviews most probably Google will not reduce points if they are mede private, like Wilfried said.
Again, @KarthicKumar1989 , please try to identify the contributions where you lost the points.
Thank you
