[Solved] One user removed International Exhibition Center of Tehran

Hi dear Googlers,

One user removed the POI of International Exhibition Center of Tehran and because of this hundreds of reviews and thousands of photos removed. I added it again on the map, at the location I remember from last time I saw the main point.

Indeed I don’t have any link to find exact location but I see there are several photos in these locations:

Main:

35.790989, 51.403112

Other possible locations of old (removed) point:

35.791181, 51.403201

35.790871, 51.403054

Dear @DeniGu I really appreciate it of you can help to recover all data contains photos, videos, reviews, Q&As and crowd hours. The team can check the coordination I prepared and can recover data or can attach them to new point.

This sad situation happened a lot for important POIs and There should be a way to prevent such spam removals

Thank you so much

Hello @Amiran

A good thing you noticed.

yes ! that happens alot to these POIs. In Nigeria we have a UNESCO site a historical and religious site taken over by some careless lady for her business. I haven’t checked on it for a good while, I will do that right away and see if it has been rectified.

I have reported it in the past and tried to make edits on it but it was a bit difficult.

well done and thank you for all your efforts as a local guide in your area,Hopefully actions can be taken over this.

Happy Mapping

Cheers

@Amiran Tehran is a country full of beauty and wonder. I would love to see more posts about it on Connect.

Hi @Amiran ,

Thanks for reporting this.

I forwarded the information to the relevant teams to look into it.

Thank you so much dear @MashaPS

Some other explanations:

After adding new POI I found that one user also added it on the map, so I moved it to right place to merge with point that I added. Anyway these new points are not the case. The important thing is to recover main and old point.
@SamanS also found some old links (those currently refer to no location) that are good to be checked for finding the removed POI: Link1 and Link2.

Again thank you for your great help

Hi dear @MashaPS

Thank you for your effort to recover the Tehran International Exhibition

Now, the place is back in its previous place, the link

We always appreciate your support for the care of the Google Maps

I wish the best for you and the team

Hooray! The POI of Tehran Exhibition Center and its data are now alive.

Thanks a lot dear @MashaPS to you and to the team

It is so appreciated if you can also investigate a previous case that I described before, here; about spam removal of one World Heritage Site. Although my newly added POI now have dozens of reviews and photos but main POI (removed one) had several thousands and I described those are still there just need to connect to a POI. So it will be really good if the team can recover that point, too.

How can appreciate your kindness and help? Just wanna you to know your support and help are so valuable to us and really helps the society.

Cheers
