I have been noticing since 3/4 days that points are decreasing from my contribution profile, for which I appealed as “I lost points” but got no resolution, even today my points are decreasing.
“Helpfulness” here was 13 points 4 days ago, yesterday I noticed it was approaching 11 and today I saw it reached 9.
Thus I lost many points, is there any solution to this problem?
If we did not have an open issue on photo views not being updated I would be able to draw you attention to the amount of photos and reviews that has been made hidden by the moderation system.
In my tutorial called How to Get In and Out of Trouble as a Local Guide
you can find out how to check for hidden contributions and what typical photo and review violations are.
Please check it out.
Your observations are consistent with a lot of your contributions being taken down.
Cheers

I am not surprised of what you are showing, @Md_Zobayerul_Islam , because only 48 of you reviews on a total of 290 posted are visible, and many of them should be removed because not showing a real “personal” experience of the place. Basically many of the reviews that are visible are seriously violating the policies that you can find in your link.
The same applies for many of the media you uploaded in Maps. How is (just to give you an example) a video of a train running, filmed from the window of the train, be related to a “Subway station”?
The form you filled is for suspended accounts, so as you are not suspended (not yet) that form is useless for you.
Kindly check the policies linked on your link, and deeply review your contributions. In this way you may have the possibility to save your account.
Good luck
I have now deleted some pictures and the video you mentioned, now how do I know that I have “Which reviews were published and which were not”? @ErmesT
I understand the problem, thanks for the help @MortenCopenhagen
@Md_Zobayerul_Islam my fellow Level 8 contributor, I haven’t seen a reduction in my points. Only my photo views have been affected until now. All new photos reading zero, while my Star Photo and some other older photos showing reduced view counts. Hoping Google esolves this soon.
Open this link in Incognito mode on a browser, @Md_Zobayerul_Islam , and compare it with your public profile
I hope it will be resolved soon @tony_b
Thanks for the good advice @ErmesT
It seems the same happened to me even though I cannot see why my videos or photos all of a sudden do not comply with the guidelines. As of three days ago I am not credited for new reviews and/or photos/videos I provide. I have no idea how to solve this, but for the time being stop contributing my experiences.
