How long does it take for a PokeStop to get approved?
In my experience, the higher the portal (pokestop) density, usually the longer it takes for you to receive an answer. Submissions at empty towns receive an answer within the first two weeks. In big cities within other portals around, might take months.

How do I turn a PokeStop into a gym?
To turn a Pokestop into a Gym, you need to submit other things in the same L14 S2 cell. The 2nd, 6th and 20th new Wayspots will create a Gym. Either an existing Pokestop will convert to a Gym, or the new Wayspot will become the Gym.
Who decides where PokeStops are?
The data that determines what are Pokestops and gyms come from Niantic’s other game, Ingress. Someone reported the Portal in Ingress and got it removed, then someone submitted it again through Ingress, and it then became a portal and then turned into a Pokestop.
How did Niantic chose PokeStops?
Founder and chief executive officer of Niantic Labs, Mr John Hanke, told Mashable in July: “The PokeStops are submitted by users, so obviously they’re based on places people go.” Players are still able to create PokeStops and Gyms by submitting addresses to the developer.
