Hi,

At http://www.google.com/mapmaker?gw=55&t=k&ll=12.916904,77.626219&spn=0.002803,0.005107&z=18&iwloc=0_0&editids=GpBqC90xjRXlhgFLDW,
the "Venugopala Swamy Temple" added by someone else has been commented
asking the author to add a shape. This PoI is no bigger than a house -
does this mandate a shape?

On the general front, when does one add a shape - methinks when the
area is big or covers more than one building would be a good choice.
But the aforementioned comment from a Google employee (I think) leaves
me confused.

Regards.
Prasanth

Hi Prasanth,
You are absolutely right in your observation that a shape is to be
added only when the area covered is significant. In the present case,
the moderator must have assumed that the constructed area nearby is
included in the temple premises and advised to add the shape if
needed. Hope that addresses your concern.

Regards,
Map Maker Guide.

P.S: We will follow up with a more elaborate post on the 'Google
Moderator' tag that everyone must have noticed recently :)
