Not sure why, but my recent posts are getting rejected - some examples.
Any Google moderators here which can look into this? I’m a bit reluctant to post more reviews before I understand why my reviews are rejected. These are reviews I’ve not done before and the images are taken from my own device.
Thanks in advance
Today I realized the same thing happened, and I’m not much of a reviewer, but the few I had were listed as unpublished and there are too many to claim individually. it certainly is a very frustrating experience. I hope your issue will be resolved soon.
Agree - this is very confusing. I had a couple of reviews declined today as well. One of my own workingplace, with original images and videos inside the building.
Makes me reluctant to post reviews until I understand why they are reject - in a specific explainable way.
Seems also that there is no one to reach out to, to understand?
I would love to assist you, but I currently don’t have any solutions to suggest to you.
You mentioned reviewing your workplace. That is clearly against the guidelines. So you should delete such reviews.
Cheers

Thank you - I forgot about reviewing your own workingplace. Deleted now.
I wish it was a place where we could engage Google Maps moderators review this cases - or maybe the ML models will be better over time and lift these declined reviews. I guess I just have to experiment with other reviews.
Happy news … Things seems to move in the right direction.
Almost all of my reviews are now released from the “decline” and visible public. It’s only one left, which I expect to be released too as it’s genuine. I don’t know what happened, but the only reasonable explanation I have is that I have deleted every review and image I posted from my old “Google Workspace” account, which was on lvl7. This old account does not hold anything as for now. Maybe that did the trick with the “bot’s - AI / ML”. Let’s see what happens on my next reviews.
… not so happy news. I’m back to have a decline on 6 reviews again. All original, stores locally and unique images taken on spot.
Geee this algoritms are frustrating. Currently I’m not trusting how G is handling reviews. It seems so random.
Just for the records and feedback now approx a month later.
All my complains was accepted - it took a while…
Now the reviews seems to flow better, not any for the last 5 which has been rejected initially. Maybe the ML is improved, or my reviews was easier to detect as valid. However, all is fine regarding my reviews which was rejected.
Enjoy your summer !
