  2. JB, RRC, Camera: Edit only when the layer is on

    For Place you have to enable the layer. This is a good feature so you can‘t create something what is still there but hidden.
    Can you expand this also to JB, RRC, Camera?

  3. Closed Place - Permanent/Temporary

    Suggestion:
    "Place Closure" Feature.
    Please provide an option for editors to mark any place as closed, preferably with permanent closure or temporary closure options. Based on these two choices, branching options should be displayed.
    For example, if a place is marked as permanently closed, the reason should be displayed along with an option to delete the place from the map.
    If it is temporarily closed, options for duration and reason should be shown.

    Additionally:
    Display a warning to drivers before starting the journey, along with a red icon indicating that the place is closed.

  5. Category for map issues

    I was driving the other day and the speed limit indicated by Waze was incorrect. I went to the map issue button in the car, but that was not one of the options for telling what the problem with the map was. The editor who handled my problem then needed to contact me just to find out what the problem with the map was. While I don't mind the contact, it would have quicker and easier for everyone if a speed limit change was an option. Where I'm currently living there is a housing boom. As new subdivisions go up,…

  6. 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.

  7. 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.

  12. Show place sub-categories sorted A to Z

    When a general category is assigned to a new place, its sub-categories are shown in some constant but not obvious order. I suggest sorting the sub-categories in A-Z order (according to the used language).

  13. Organize Urs

    It would be good if when there are many overlapping URs, clicking on one would open only one window and within it the nearby URs would be sorted by date and time. This way, if a user reports several times by mistake, there is no need to respond several times, which can lead to annoyance for this user. I think it would be better organized.

  14. "All Issues" should have an editable area & level restricted (permissional area) filter.

    I'm liking the new "All Issues" section but it needs another filter where I can filter out all the stuff I can't edit due to permissions such as areas outside my editable areas and level restricted edits.

    I'm currently a L1 and want to move up higher but not having the ability to only see what I can edit, it's time consuming going through them all.

  15. Propose map changes that I'm not allowed to because of my level

    As a Level 1 Editor, I would like to propose a change in a map where I'm not allowed to so the change is not applied until an editor with the adequate level approves it.

  16. 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.

  18. 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.
    Thanks for reading
