Add Location Category?

I’ve noticed this in the other Niantic game, whose name we may not speak on these forums.

This seems to be the same list that you get when you nominate something in this game to categorise it.

I know that we currently don’t have to do that for Ingress nominations, but I believe it’s meant to be coming Soon™️ (I understand it’s an extra data point, but it’s a pain to do when you’re already in a low signal area and the list won’t load) so I wondered if we would also get this?

You seem to get 400 of these type of edits a day, but it’s not clear why you should do it, or who looks at your suggestions. If I put that a plaque is a bridge as the location instead, where would I see this information on a Portal eventually, and will it affect anything for Ingress? Is it maybe only for Pikmin Bloom? Maybe people will do it if they can do it via Portal Keys and know why they should as well.

I have posted this on the Wayfarer forum too, as it’s related to that, but it’s not clear if those using Wayfarer would review these edits or not, and I just wanted to see if we would get this new edit category (after the Golden Child of course).

    I thought Wayfarer improvements were still coming to Ingress especially with reporting wayspots?

    Almost a week later and I finally got blood out of the stone that is Pokémon GO support.

    So, no additional work on it for Wayfarer folks, it’s all received and reviewed by Niantic at present.
