Who are the moderators on Connect?

Hello

Googlers are Google employees and everyone need not be a moderator.

Only some designated Google employees would be assigned with the job of moderation on this forum.

There is another class of connect moderators who are Local Guides carrying out the function voluntarily.

You can also aspire to become that through consistent and all-round contributions.

Hi @Diyarjaf

As your account has been suspended, here below you will find a link to know how to contact the Local Guides Team for a verification of the account:

Please remember that, who is banned, through the account, is the person that is managing it, as the account is not acting independently of him.

Bookmark this link, and follow the instruction in there to know how to contact the Local Guides Team: Why was I removed from the Local Guides program?

"If you think you may have been wrongfully removed from the program and your account hasn’t been reinstated for more than 10 days, don’t create a new account to post on Connect. (That’s against our program rules, too.)

Instead, fill out the Appeal form, letting us know you’ve been removed. Be sure to provide us with your Google Maps profile URL so we can look into it. It can take up to three weeks to investigate banned accounts, so please be patient. Our team will reach out privately as soon as we have an update.

For your privacy, please edit your post, removing the contact informations in there. The team will not use this post to contact you.

Close this account now. Having two accounts is against the program rules

Thank you for reading

Hi @RenuK and thank you for reaching out.

When you have a question, a great approach is to search on Connect. Maybe the question that you have has been already replied to before. Please note that I merged your post here, where you can learn more about the moderators on Connect.

Hi,

I’m wondering why my recent story titled “Perfect Place for Wedding Engagement” was not posted. I actually posted it under Travel initially, but I decided to move it to Local Stories. However, when I did that, it prompted me that my post is still being reviewed but I could not see the draft anymore. Any idea where I could archive my post? Thanks!

Update: Got the answer from here: Why was my Connect post marked as spam?

Hi @marium ,

yes of course you can record your video wearing your hijjab, applications are open to everyone, no matter the religion and Google respects everyone’s religion.

Just stick to the requirements and go on, you can have a look at Video tips for your Connect Live 2020 application.

Good luck!

Hi @user_not_found ,

currently there are not yet news about the revamp of the program but keep an eye on the announcements.

Hi @CSouza ,

are you referring to the Connect Live 2020 applications? If yes please have a look at the Connect Live 2020 application guidelines, here you can find all useful information. Or you can check the official website as well where you start your application (note to have the required materials ready as you will need to provide the links to that).
