@Ivi_Ge さん、こんにちは。

久しぶりにトピックを投稿したところ、コミュニティからの通報によりoff-topicになったとメールが届きました。気づくのが遅れたためなのかトピックが表示できないため編集も出来ませんでした。

コミュニティーガイドラインを見ましたが、理由が思いつきません。今後の参考の為に、このトピックの何が問題だったのか知りたいので教えてください。

Hi @Yotaroh, thank you for reaching out.

I’m sorry to hear that your topic was flagged as off-topic. Unfortunately, once a post is hidden due to community reports, it can no longer be viewed or edited.

In these situations, the best option is to create a new post. As a reminder, we encourage topics that are connected to the Local Guides program and Google Maps contributions, such as travel tips, cultural experiences, great places to visit, and stories from your contributions or achievements.

@Yotaroh , when you are notified about a post temporary hidden because flagged by Community reports you have the possibility to edit it. But if after that the post was checked by a Googler and they found that the report was correct, then the post is removed, like in this case.
As a reference you can read this reply by @AngieYC in a similar case:

I didn’t have the possibility to check your specific post, but looking at the link it seems the post was about Comet C/2025 A6 (lemmon) - here in Wikipedia.
As mentioned by @AlexandreCampbell , in Connect we focus on contents that are about the Local Guides Program and we share our original experience, avoiding generalist contents.
With this in mind of course you can rewrite your post, but if it’s not focused on the elements mentioned above it will be removed again.

I know, a year ago you wrote a similar post: Comet C/2023 A3, and that post is visible. But honestly, also that post should be removed because it is “off topic” in Connect

@ErmesT さん、こんにちは。

off-topicの仕組みを教えてくれてありがとう。前回のLGCの変更からトピックの考え方が変わっていたのに気づきませんでした。或いは以前から勘違いしていたのかもしれませんね。危なく再びoff-topicのトピックを書くとろこでした。
まだ新しいルールに馴染めていないので難しいですが、別のトピックでトライしてみたいと思います。

ところで、類似例へのリンクが表示されないので参照できません。修正をお願いします。

Hi @Yotaroh
I could say that the concept of Off Topic was the same even before the migration. However the structure of the category was different, and for sure we were a bit more flexible.
But the community is growing, and we need to keep the contents strictly related to Connect’s topics , otherwise it can be difficult to keep the boundaries.

@ErmesT さん、こんにちは。

リンクの修正ありがとう。トピックを読むことが出来ました。
LGCはGoogle MapsおよびLGの活動により重点を置くようになっている事は理解していたつもりでしたが、まだ理解が不足していたようです。
