Re: No option to report - wrong location

@JohnPeter  The first location is not for a POI or the fort you mentioned, it is for a town. I see the first Sadras is a town that is why it has pulled the description from the Wikipedia.  I am not sure if the location is wrong. If the marker in the map is placed in a wrong location then you might need the help of Google moderator to fix this. 

 

The second one is the POI/fort.

Thanks dear @SaifIS ,  the first location wrongly added and the history showing in wiki is about the second place where the palace and other heritage sites are located. 

 

How to report town or POI?

Hi @JohnPeter,

 

There are certain prominent places which Local Guides can’t edit in Google Maps, such as cities, towns, rivers, natural formations, and more. If you come across a spammed, fake or duplicate location for which you cannot submit an edit or your edit is automatically rejected, let us know in a comment below. Make sure to tag a Google Moderator and provide the following details: 

 

  • Google Maps URL of the location (Eg: https://goo.gl/maps/qAZfCWDfZzoqchHL9);
  • What’s wrong with the place? Is it spammed, fake, or duplicate?
  • Which is the wrong information? Is it the name, category, or contact information?
  • What should the correct information be? Tell us the original name of the place in English and in the local language (if applicable), the right category (Zoo, Museum, etc.), and the correct contact information (official website, address, phone number, etc.).
