Show fountains / water sources as POI
Add "Water fountain / spring" object to point of interests.
That's useful, specially if you break down, to be able to get some water. I suggest adding the "Fountain / spring" place, maybe with the optional flag "drinkable / not drinkable"1 vote -
Make Issue Tracker keyboard (next/previous) shortcuts more prominent
Some editors still have difficulty using the Issue Tracker, and some are totally against it, preferring to use the UR-MP script. One reason this may be the case is that it's not completely obvious how to navigate between the issues.
My suggestion is to make the Keyboard Shortcuts for "Next" and "Previous Issues" more prominent, showing them at the top of the Issue Tracker panel. This may encourage more editors to use the feature.

Editors' 2do List
Basically having a special context menu or "Editor Report" that will help us remember things to fix once we go into WME. So, this is a communication from production application to WME.
Sometimes we drive and find an error or something that needs to be fixed. so it would be valuable to have a pin, with text or voice notes that would give me details on what to fix so I can go to this list or this special type of reports once I go to WME.
The difference with normal UR's or MP's would be that it will not…

Newly reported UR - Poor wording on blank URs
The 4 lines on a new blank UR about there are no comments yet feel free to ask a question is overly worded and takes up a lot of screen space.
It basically makes editors scroll down on every UR to write custom comments.
"No comments yet.
You can ask the Wazer who
submitted this report for more
information."Ask for more info here." sums up all of the above.

A/B Testing of map changes
Imagine if we could test two versions of a navigation instruction with different driver groups and use real data—like User Reports, detours, speed changes, and quick feedback—to see which one works better. This could make a big difference for things like lane guidance, difficult turns, and complex instructions.
A/B testing would give us real insights to help make navigation clearer and safer for drivers everywhere. If we could get Waze on board, it could mean big improvements for the whole map-editing community.

WME External providers marked as Permanent closed as a Places Problem
Many Places in Waze have a External providers marked as Permanent closed, and action needed to either remove it (if the places are permanently closed) or remove the problematic External providers link( if the places are active but the External providers link are marked as permanent closed).
However, we as an editor are no ways to know if the External providers link are still active nor it is marked as permanent closed.
So. can we have WME to detect those External providers link and trigger a places problems (something like map problems) for editors to check and fix the problematic…12 votes -

Mark gas station brands as "Top Tier"
When refueling, many drivers are much more interested in fuel quality than in the specific brand. But at present, the Waze gas-station finder offers no means to limit searches by fuel quality.
Waze can solve this problem by supporting the identification of brands selling "Top Tier" gasoline. "Top Tier" is a consortium of vehicle manufacturers that approves certain gasoline brands as preferred for their engine designs (toptiergas.com).
"Top Tier" designation is associated with all stations selling certain brands and not with any individual station. I'm not sure what mechanism to suggest for Waze to support editing a brand-wide feature like…
