hello, i am having an hard time understanding why all my previous comment were refused because i was on site when i made them, so gps coordinate match.
i have not been insulting or whatsoever so this is a big question mark for me on what is going on ? also i can’t find the contribute button anymore on either pc or android ( the one where you could check new information or change about a place ) i made photo that accumulated around 70 millions views, i participate fairly and honestly in the program and contributed lots of fact and verification.
even before this happened i was surprise that some of my picture on my hiking trip where i made 360 using drone or my smartphone were remove from map ( you can find my previous post talking about it) because it is exhausting to go up there with a drone, doing picture if google is just going to remove them for no reason at all.
they are still there but cant be accessible by the public, where some older and worst looking picture are them visible.
i would be glad to have a response on what is going on not from user but from staff that can look into this
thank you

Hello @masterac
I can’t understand your points but i am saying to you, if you add the correct place with Time, Website, Photo it will be approved in the seconds. If now it’s your problem if your edits was in “Pending” or “Not Applied” you can read Why is my edit status “Pending” or “Not Applied” this one posted by an Google Contributer.

Hi @masterac
Google Maps is running a test in France to learn how to inform Local Guides about hidden reviews.
Recently, Google admitted that the spam filter for reviews has been too aggressive, and therefore offered an opportunity to have a Googler check our contributions.
Please use the form called Account investigation for contributions not visible on Google Maps if you believe that some of your contributions have been wrongfully unpublished.
After submitting the form, your will need to wait 3+ weeks, and Google will not inform you about the result of the test. So you will need to check now and then if your reviews go public.
Best of luck

Regarding your 360 photos: I remember a guideline stating that 360 shots should be taken at eye level (and not higher). Could that explain your issue?
