SolutionHello @Tarun7, A warm welcome in Local Guides Connect. Thank you posting your query. The world is a big and dynamic place — as it evolves, our goal is to keep the information on Google Maps as fresh and accurate as possibl
In order to do that, Local Guides submit edits to ensure their communities are accurately represented. Sometimes, an edit you have submitted may appear as Pending or Not Applied.
Many of you have asked why your edit is shown that way, so we wanted to share more information with you how edits are reviewed and why they may appear as such.
Every edit submitted to Google Maps passes through automated systems that analyze different factors, such as the information submitted, the location of the edit, your mapping activity, and other factors to make sure everything we are adding to the map is accurate and follows our guidelines.
If we are not sure the edit is accurate, it may be listed as Denied. If your edit status is listed as Pending, it means we need to take a closer look at the information, which can take some time to verify through our staff and other Local Guides through "Check the Facts".
Don’t take it personally.
If your edit is denied, this doesn’t mean you are a bad mapper (unless you are trying to spam the map!) — we may not be familiar with the region you are mapping and need more information to be confident the edit is accurate. Simply collect more information and suggest another edit.
Thank you for helping to keep Google Maps fresh and accurate for the millions of people who rely on your information when they’re exploring the world.
Thanks for being with Local Guides. if you have any question about Local Guides or Google Map, feel free to ask here.
Happy Guiding

Hello,
If Google could trust everyone to always make good edits then there would never be denials, but unfortunately those that purposely or innocently add bad data have resulted in the need for filters. Sometimes those filters will give a false positive, and sometimes those filters kick in due to you unknowingly violating a rule. You can read more in this pinned post.
In addition to the advice given there, you also have the option of providing all the data including exact GPS location, any existing POI, and exactly what data you were trying to add or edit. With that mapping experts can look it over and let you know if there are obvious and/or likely issues that you can fix in your next attempt.
Due to the volume I receive, I do not respond to unsolicited private messages

Not applied.
Pending.
Denied.
Those are three different things.
What does not applied mean ?
What constitutes a valid website? Phone number ?
