Map location edits not approved

Hiya fellow LG

This is perhaps something @ErmesT or any moderators to check please? 

I suggested an edit for Woolworths Woolloomooloo  but rejected. I suggested the edit because on Google Maps the suburb shown is in Balmain East  but this Metro Supermarket is in Woolloomooloo NSW  . Also the postcodes are different and I live two minutes walk from Woolworths Woolloomooloo Metro!

Should I suggest an edit again on Google Maps or not bother, as I've suggested twice and got rejected both times!

Cheers

Hi @SirB 

Thank you for the tag. Unfortunately your links are not working, but I suppose you are talking about this place

Yes, I see that the address is wrong, definitely is not on Balmain east

An edit about a Metro station will be very probably rejected, if you go through "suggest an edit" as the POI is in some way related to the transit layer.

What I suggest you is to use "send a feedback" to Report an error on the map . In this way you can send a screenshot of the area, highlighting the mistake

Thanks so much for your tireless efforts @ErmesT and I apologise for the links not working. But you picked it up what I meant. 

The "metro" in the name refers to a supermarket type (Metro being a small supermarket compare to a full supermarket). However, I've sent feedback on Google Maps and I haven't seen any change. 

Just thought to help Google Maps provide accurate information but I think I give up. 

 

Thanks again @ErmesT 👍

Thank you for the feedback @SirB (new profile photo?), and for the clarification about METRO meaning (I was expecting a subway station, LOL)

I am tagging @VasT here for escalating the issue.

Love your work @ErmesT 

Only in Australia and unique to Woolworths supermarket to use Metro for smaller supermarkets much like Tesco Express and Tesco Superstore in the UK. 

Yep, new profile photo 😉🤣

Cheers @ErmesT and keep up the great work and tips 👍
