1. A true support for bilingual countries

   I noticed that Waze doesn't approach bilingual countries just like GMM does.
   For example, in GMM, we can write multiple names for the same road in 2 different languages and based on the user's current phone language chosen, the map changes accordingly.
   Unfortunately that doesn't happen in Waze, we are stuck in 1 language only, even if we add "Alternative" name.

   Here in Kuwait, we use both Arabic and English (Even street signs are written in both Arabic and English) , in Google Maps we are having no problems since most of the roads in the map are written in both Arabic and English. But in Waze, it is way different.

   This is causing problems since most of the locals here prefer the map in Arabic, but also there are people who use the map in English.

   My suggestion is:
   In WME, when selecting a segment, we should have at least 2 fields to name the selected segment, there also has to be a drop-down menu to choose the wanted language.
   The user's map should display the correct language based on the user's language settings in his/her phone.

   Thanks for your feedback. At this time, this doesn't fit on our roadmap, but we'll keep it in mind for future product planning.

2. Allow Map editor Zoom on mouse scroll to be disabled

   When editing maps with my Mac and the attached Smart Mouse, the mouse scroll is extremely sensitive. The sensitivity causes the map to zoom in and out un-expectedly. It would be nice to be able to disable the mouse scroll --> zoom feature.

3. Editor-set time penalty on a segment

   Waze currently routes by finding the fastest route, considering both the expected travel time and certain penalties. For example, navigating onto a private road adds a 2-hour penalty to the route, effectively forcing travel around that segment unless there is no other route.

   My suggestion is that all segments have a Penalty attribute that editors can set in WME. Used thoughtfully, this penalty attribute could give the routing engine a nudge away from areas where, based on editors' local knowledge, traffic should generally not be sent.

   For example, if all the segments into a residential neighborhood were assigned a 5 minute penalty, then routing would tend to stay on the main streets. BUT if there was a closure or serious delay on a bordering thoroughfare, then the small penalty would be overcome and (temporary) routing through the residential neighborhood would still be possible.

   Of course it is possible to "hack" this feature using Private Road segments, but (a) that doesn't conform to community standards for editing and (b) it forecloses the ability to use those streets for detours when there is a serious delay or closure elsewhere in the grid.

4. WME Restriction Layer and Invisible chat for newbies...

   Hello everyone:

   I don't know if there is a existent proposal (I checked it at the suggestion box and the forum) about a layer of the WME for newbies editors with Ranks 1 & 2.

   For these ranks I propose remove avtivation layers (Connected users) and the Chat Invisible option.

   ¿Why?

   Because some times when a newbie editor messes up the map and the advanced editor interacts with him does not respond the WME Chat instead following him elsewhere in the map the newbie does not see us because of the "Connected Users" layer is deactivated.

5. WME Save Button confirmation needed

   I would like to suggest that "Confirmation Functionality" gets added to the WME Save button. Because of its location, it very easy to make an unintentional save action and then have to ask for someone at a higher editing level to sort out the error.

6. Eliminierung von Rechtschreibfehlern/Eliminating spelling errors

   Auf der www.waze.com/de sind jede Menge Rechtschreib- und Satzzeichenfehler, was ziemlich unprofessionell daherkommt. Ich bin Korrektor und würde gerne helfen. Wie?
