Request to correct the wrong Wikipedia Link and Allow me Photo Contributions for My village [بيت الوعيل ]

[Aboluai]

Hello @GoogleMod,

I am a Level 7 Local Guide, and I have been actively contributing high-quality, verified content to Google Maps. I am writing to address two main issues regarding my village, [بيت الوعيل ].
1-Incorrect Wikipedia Description: The current description is linked to a different village with a similar name. This is causing confusion. I request to unlink the incorrect Wikipedia snippet.So I will add the correct Wikipedia link for my village down.

2-Restricted Photo Feature: Currently, the option to add photos is disabled for this village. As a trusted Level 7 contributor, I have already uploaded several high-quality, accurate photos that represent the area perfectly.

3-Quality Control: I am highly concerned about the quality of content for this location. My goal is to ensure that only accurate and high-resolution images are displayed to maintain the map’s integrity.So I request to have the photo feature enabled for me only so I can continue documenting the village’s landmarks professionally.

I am committed to monitoring the location’s photos and reporting any low-quality or irrelevant content that others might post, ensuring the village page remains at the highest standard.

Village Name: [ بيت الوعيل]

Google Maps Link: [Google Maps]

The correct Wikipedia link for my village:
[بيت الوعيل (شخب) - ويكيبيديا]

Thank you for your assistance in improving Google Maps data.

Hi @Aboluai

The village is not normal in many ways:
Villages are normally and area and not just a pin.
If you want it to become a normal village you will need to find an official map showing the name and the precise border.
Villages do normally not accept reviews and photos. Photos shown for a village are automatically selected from places inside a village.

Villages do not have links, and Wikipedia is rarely accepted as a credible website.

So there are a lot to consider before moving on.

Also, there might be restrictions on what can done on Maps in Yemen.

And most importantly, such data issues are better dealt with in the Google Maps Help Community.

Ok, thanks a lot

Hi @Aboluai,

As @MortenCopenhagen shared, visiting the Google Maps Help Community is indeed the best course of action.

To keep the community organized, I am changing your topic category to “Google Maps tips & tricks” category with “Map editing” as the tag.

As a note, using the right tags and categories on your topics makes it easier for other Local Guides to find what they’re looking for in the community.
