Can I remove a “Add to Maps” request?

I mistakenly used the Add to Maps option and wish to cancel the request. Is there a way to do so?

Removing Add to Maps Request:

The location you already entered is in Apple's database. So, there is not to remove. As of it being stored as a location, it is set on your device, and not on Apple's servers.

Contact Apple Support:

If it reads "Pending", then contact Apple Support. They are the Deliverers of the Maps app. So, contact Apple Support, asking to speak with the iTunes Staff.

The location does not exist with the name I entered. I thought I was making a change to my view of the map, not asking Apple to change the name of the location. I wish to remove the request. It still appears as "pending". Also, the options to remove or rename a Guide do not seem to work. Do these require Admin rights?
