Allow Editors to Set Functional Status of EV Charging Stations
When mapping EVCS, I've noticed that there are comment sections on charging stations like PlugShare that allow users to share their experience using the stations, specifically if it's working or not. Would like to propose that apart from the comments, we can add in a functionality for editors to set the status of these charging stations based on user reports or own knowledge. As a result, users can see clearly the status of each charging station even before they navigate to the charging station, saving frustration when the station is unserviceable. Users should also be given the option to either…

Average speed calculation in average speed zone
The idea is that once you enter a speed enforcement zone there will be an aditional box that displays the average speed driven inside the enforcement. This allows you to gauge how much you can speed up after stopping or going slow for awhile.

Suggest "Warehouse" and/or "Loading Dock" categories for Places in WME
Lots of warehouses in my area, lots of truck drivers are dropping Places that would meet this criteria. They usually select the Parking Lot category, and i generally end up changing them to Factory/Industrial.

Detour routes
We need the ability to add detour routes (paths) that can be added and removed in real time and/or scheduled to use in conjunction with closures. Often when local authorities announce closures, the also specify preferred detour routes.

Combined Red Light & Speed Cameras
The UK now has a growing number of red light cameras that also double-up as speed cameras. These should be able to be captured and displayed/warned as having both functions to drivers.

Zoom in to selected map suggestion
When we select a map suggestion in the Issue Tracker, the map is centered on the suggestion, but the zoom level isn't changed. The map should zoom in to the suggestion.

"Check and try again"
Save error suggestions should provide useful, actionable info to the editor to help them know what to do to solve the problem.
"Check and try again" isn't helpful. Check what?

[REQUEST] Feed Filters
It would be very nice if we could filter the feed by notification types (more or less like URO+ does, but without having to reload the feed several times to find the ones you selected).
Options suggested:
Notifications (checkboxes):
- PURs (and subtypes);
- URs (and subtypes);
- PMs.Areas:
- State XX (particularly useful for SMs and CMs);
- Areas driven [last XX days];
- Country (useful for CMs);
- All editable areas.Those above are what I miss the most. But, since we're at it, some extra suggestions would be:
Listing reason:
- Reported by you;

Change timing of color change for URs in Feed in WME
Presently, the bubbles in the WME Feed for URs change to Orange around 6 or 7 days, and Red at 10 days, to indicate attention is needed for a stale UR. Most AMs think this timing is too long. Either set the color change to a standard enterprise-wide timing (4-7 seems to be the most popular), or allow editors to set the color changes to personal preference.

Unlimited Sign for Germany
Hello,
in Germany, we have no speed limit on many roads. At the moment we do not enter a limit on roads without a speed limit. However, this often leads to confusion, because users do not know if a speed limit was not entered for a segment or if there is no speed limit on this segment.
It would be great if there was a possibility to enter a "unlimited sign" for Segments without a speed limit!
For example, you could simply insert a symbol like this "/" into the speed field in WME and in the Waze-App users get…

3000 modifications to reach level 2 !!
I am disappointed to have to make 3.000 modifications to reach level 2 ... 25,000 for level 3 and 100,000 for level 4!
It's a 24 hour job!
At level 4 approval from the team and local experts is needed ... stupid!
it's easier to get into the FBI!
With my 56 edits that I'm so proud of ... I'm ridiculous!8 votes -
Select left hand drive or right hand drive vehicle
My car is a left hand drive vehicle however while using the app on an android headunit the directions are on the left side of the screen while the map is on the right hand side of the screen which is very hard to see. I suggest an option if your car is a left hand drive vehicle to swap these two and revert back if it is a right hand drive vehicle.

On WME you can create some category of building (shopping, industry, professionals, supermarket, parking, port, beach, sport area...) why not a search option to select a specific of one? think you're in a city and looking to found a restaurant, being able to select restaurant and see all restaurant around yourself. looking to hostels being able to do same etc etc... being able to search same kind of POI than WME editor got. could be useful to found some kind of area

Give editors a pushbutton to clear the WME search location field
Please give editors the ability to remove the text that is already entered into the "search location" field. This could be as simple as when clicking to put the cursor in the field, all the text is highlighted so that you can start typing. Another option would be to give an icon that clears the field. Of note, the looking glass icon appears to do nothing, we could replace it with a clear field icon.

Consolidate the two WME suggestion boxes
Please consolidate the two Uservoice-based WME suggestion boxes. There has been a "Waze Map Editor" subcategory of the "Waze Suggestion Box" for at least a few years, and due to default links and navigation that is still an easier suggestion box to find than this one. Or, is there a reason to have two different suggestion boxes for WME?

Possibility to adjust fuel prices with WME.
More and more gasoline prices are no longer kept up to date by Waze users. To ensure that people in my region can see the current prices at the gas stations, I now enter these via the app. This takes a lot of time. I would like, and many others probably with me, the option to enter these gasoline prices via WME.

Add garden center place category
Include "Garden center" or "Landscaping" as a place category. Right now the most accurate thing to call places like this is just "Shopping / Services", however almost every individual place in this category can be given a more specific category.
