Philippine Places Policy
- Introduction
This will serve as a guide for Waze Philippines on what should be posted, approved, and rejected for Places submissions. If a submission is going to be rejected, add a comment why (future feature).
Before taking a picture and submitting (approving for us editors) it, put yourself in the shoes of someone who will be going to that place and does not know where to go or look. The picture should be something that will make it easier for anyone to find that place. Every user (trusted or not) can become blacklisted and banned from adding places once they have tried adding a certain amount of places or updates which have been rejected. We also track places that have been flagged and removed - if we see a pattern where a certain user created many of these, he might be blacklisted. Refer to this link for more details; Places Wiki

Updates on Places' Information The general guideline to use to determine whether to Accept the update is,
"Is the majority of information provided in the update correct?"
A Place update, if the user completes ALL the information, can be extremely long
Even if some of the data is incorrect, or the photo included in the update improper and unhelpful to drivers, the editor can still remove the photo or update/delete the incorrect information after accepting the update. It is better, faster, and more honest to accept the good information from the driver, and fix the problems, rather than rejecting the entire update and filling in the info yourself.
