Added place not published

I have added a new place in Google maps- that is Fulgazi Pilot Girls High School- a few month ago. But still now it is not published. What I can do now? Have anything to do or just waiting?

Re: Added place not published

 
This feature's place label displays when it is searched. Essentially, you are asking why it does not have a permanently displaying place label.


There is too many items on the map for them all to get a place label that always displays, so algorithms are used to figure out what to display based on what the user is likely seeking. There are many other features that are also not showing; you just do not realize because you cannot see them. There is no way to influence this, other than making the feature as accurate as possible.

But it really shouldn't be a problem; people don't randomly scroll around the map looking for a plumber, a church, a dentist, a tire shop, etc; but rather they search. When somene searches for the type of establishment you have mapped then it will appear in the results, so everything is working fine.

When someone enters no search terms at all or search terms unrelated to this feature, Google has determined that they are almost certainly not looking for this feature and thus it is safe not to show it. You should be aware that the algorithms constantly are re-run, so it may get an always visible place label; but then it might later again disappear.
