points are not increasing in Checking the facts

I have been contributing in Check the Facts by answering YES / No questions but my points are not increasing accordingly. For one question I am supposed to get 1 point. I have nearly answered 100 qustns but the points not increased accordingly. Kindly look into the matter.

Hi @MahendraJ

 

You are confusing two different things. 

Check the facts: https://support.google.com/local-guides/answer/7186667?

and

Answer questions: https://support.google.com/local-guides/answer/7082158?

 

The latter earns one point per place (not one point per answer)

Hi @MahendraJ. Right now, checking the facts does not award you points. But this is something we are considering, thank you for your feedback.

Re: points are not increasing in Checking the facts

"Checking Facts" option come when you go to Your Contributions. In the FAQ of how to gain points it was written that answering questions will give 1 point per question. Then how it is not giving points. If you will not give points to it, then it will demotivate Guides to contribute in that section. It is also a important part for contribution. People will not invest their time in answering the questions. They will only focus on giving reviews, adding photos.

 

Secondly when I go to add reviw, the message comes that there are no new places to review. Kindly advise then how to give review to the places. Google should advise the places near me for my review.
