Or you may have a 2 year old waymark stripped from you.  This is patently unfair and even worse: it's wrong.  Are any of my waymarks safe?  Can a category group decide to change of "tighten up" the category requirements and then toss out the old ones that no longer fit?  Because that's exactly what you have done here.  I wish to file a protest to have my waymark, "Alabama Welcomes You", reenstated and I believe this issue needs tobe brought up before the entire Groundspeak community.

Sincerely,

I updated four I had listed to better conform to the current standards.  I like the new drop down options.

Declining someone's established Waymark seems to be no big deal to some people.

As a person in the Groundspeak Community, I believe that deleting someone's established Waymark after someone has decided to tighten up the requirements is totally wrong.

Your Waymark should be reinstated w/o question.

I would agree if it was the "tighening" that caused the waymark to be declined but from my understanding the declines were only those that should have been accepted to begin with.  Yes it would have been better if it had been declined when submitted but they weren't.  The group can decide how to handle those, they can either grandfather them or they can remove them... in this case the group decided to remove them.... that is their decision to make.
