Hazard (Speed bump)
In France (I don't know if other countries practice the same) we are faced with situations where speed bumps cover an entire intersection. Knowing that the current configuration only allows two-way signaling, I asked myself the question if we could not have the possibility of having the choice on a crossing and cross, a T crossing, a two-way crossing, A >B, B>A. Because if my deduction is correct today to cover such crossings we must put two Hazards so that the announcement is made from all directions of traffic.

Assign alternative street names to residential places
If a street has alternative names, we need the option to assign those names to residential places on the street.

wme - editor profile - viewability?
hi.
it would be nice if we could either allow or disallow other users from viewing our editor profile, this is because of safety of where certain editors may try to find where a user lives. (exemptions would be the countries co-ordinators and waze staff).
thank you.

Add to all places the field “Located in venue”
The places of the Category "Charging Station" have the field “Located in venue”. The same field should be added to public places of other categories.

Make easier to select segments
Sometimes we need to do a bulk alteration in several segments, like to change max-speed, directions and so. Although it is possible to select all the street, sometimes, we don't need to change all the segments in the street.
Also, if a person has some mobility disability or dificulties, it is common they lost their selection of several segments because either clicked in a wrong place or not hold the ctrl key.
The suggestion is either a creation of a 'Selection mode' that can be activated and allows the user to click in the desired elemnts or a checkbox like…6 votes -
UR Menu - tooltip
The UR menu breaks off URs with a long category. This has the effect that you cannot see in the menu when it was last updated, and you have to open the UR for that. So I suggest to make a tooltip for those URs, or alternatively make it 2 lines instead of one.

Residential - show closest semgent where the drive will lead
Hello, there,
in the new editor v. 2.242 there are no possibility to show the residential names. I have to choose each to be able to see their names. And there is no possibility to show the neariest part of segment where the drive will be lead.
Is it possible to enable the option to "show residential names" just as it is for POIs and parking places?
Is it possible to enable "show the closest segment where will be driver navigated"?
It is pretty needed, because to create the residential is very easy, but if there are more streets around,…6 votes -
Parking spaces available in car parks in real time
Several cities around the world have a real-time feed of available spaces in their parking lots.
It would be really relevant to be able to have it in Waze so that we can be guided directly to the city center or bus/tram hub. Currently Waze allows you to get around perfectly, but concretely, once you arrive in town, it does not help you to park, so the purpose is not achieved in a certain way. It’s also a matter of sustainability. Waze should help for less time and gaz wasted.
Morover many cities with real time feed have digital screen…6 votes -
Separators and Decimal Signs per Language
I noticed that in the Waze Editor, under Trips and Segment Lengths, there is a number where the sign for a decimal is a .
For example: At 175 kilometers and 300 meters it says: 175.300 km
In the Netherlands, for example, we use different signs to indicate decimals.
At 1000 meters we do: 1.000 meters
At 25 kilometers and 200 meters we do: 25,200 km (or 25.200 meters).For example, you see 844 meters for the lengths of segments. If you then click on a segment, it suddenly says 1.340 km. For us in the Netherlands, that is 1340…

Leader board changes
The leader board ranking should be updated automatically and not the day after.
The leader board should be split or selectable by points for edits only vs driving.
This should encourage new editors and let them see that their work reflects in a higher ranking (if they are sensitive for this) which isn't hijacked by people who are only driving.6 votes -
Holiday based turn/traffic restrictions on Japan
Traffic/turn restrictions for holidays have not yet been implemented in Japan.
Please support Japanese national holidays.If Sunday becomes a national holiday, Monday falls under the holiday in lieu, etc. There are detailed rules. The dates that fall under holidays are listed in the following law
https://laws.e-gov.go.jp/law/323AC1000000178/Similar proposals outside of Japan have already been implemented and should be less burdensome.

Inclusão de Semáforos, sem ou radar de velocidade.
I propose the implementation of marking all traffic lights, even those without speed radar, in the Waze app’s mapping system. This feature aims to enhance the navigation experience, provide greater driver safety, and enable more accurate and efficient routes.
Including traffic lights on the Waze map would allow:
Greater Accuracy in Route Time Calculation: By accounting for waiting times at traffic lights, Waze’s algorithm could offer more precise route estimates, preventing unexpected delays for users.
Suggestion of Faster and Safer Routes: With the location of traffic lights known, Waze could suggest alternative routes, avoiding intersections that require longer waiting times…

See Editable Areas and Area Managers when zoomed out
The layers "Editable Areas" and "Area Managers" are only visible at zoom layers 12 and above.
It would be helpful to see these layers at larger zoom levels to better understand what areas you can edit, and who the relevant Area Managers are.
