My Request is there should be an option to select that there is no website for a place. OR. Default should be no and then Local guide while updating can make Yes and enter the URL.
OR
Make some changes in the Google Maps where the new Beta version asks for the website details.

SolutionHello @SørenB @GéraldM, these fields are not mandatory so you can leave them blank if they are not applicable. 🙂 As @deepakjhic notes, there have been similar discussions previously and I'm going ahead to merge yours with those.

Just curious, what's the reason of that? I believe you don't need to put a website to add a location right? It's optional?

@YK1001 Gotcha. I wasn't sure what he was referring to. I haven't had a chance to play around with the new beta feature to be honest. Need to set aside some time to do that.

Can we also add an na for telephone number as well? None of the city parks I have been to possess an individual phone number... Thanks!!

As @AtmaR mentioned the new Beta feature asking for missing info, have an options to mark website field as "na" should hopefully stop Maps from asking for missing info for that Place again.

Hi LGs,
Thanks to forum for your support.
Today i have doubt about Missing Info. on GMaps contributions,
I'm add missing info of the place as much as possible. But when i am adding temples or small shops or medical shops, etc. it asks websites and working days / hours and telephone numbers, if it has.
For eg. In India, there are lot of mini temple you can see in each street (mostly for Lord Ganesh) which will never going to have phone number and website. Not only for temples some more places don't have any web / phone.
I want to specify them as "No website" and "No Phone number" (only for the cases, places not having either website / phone number)
But possibility is, We can only add Phone / Web or leave it as Blank. There is no option to specify "No websites / phone".
Is there any feature going to avail for specifying "No Website / Phone number were found".

@LogarajS At the moment this feature is not available on Google Maps. The only thing you can do is to leave these fields blank. You may send a feedback to Google Maps team requesting this feature or you can post this request on the "Feedback and Feature Requests" board of this forum.

I’m not the first with this suggestion but a lot of time is wasted looking for non-exsisting websites (or phone numbers) — so it would be nice to have a “n/a” function for these two fields.
Thanks for listening!

could be indeed a good idea

Sounds like a good idea. I know there are many other thread with same request but will not be easy to find in connect.
@BruceDM allow me to tag you here.
Finally I've found two post in connect where it was discussed/posted before, here and here.
