Improve/change the error message
Improve/change the error message when low level editors tries to delete the house number on streets with higher locks. Now we got "Error saving, try later" message. It gives, to editor, no idea of what the problem is, and the user may thinks that's a WME bug. By changing this message, it will give to editor and mentor/higher levels editor's more information to understand where the problem lies.

Update gas prices where Waze venue is linked to GM place via external provider
Idea by reivaxX162.
Around the globe, Google Maps has already rolled out gas station prices. Many gas stations mapped in Waze are linked to GM via the external provider setting. Waze could automatically update the Waze gas prices where it is linked via the external provider. This would allow automatic price updates globally with little ease, and leverage the work GM has already done.

Issue Tracker Option ~ Add ability to have Map Area and Managed Area at same time
We need the ability to have the "Map area" option selected along with either the "Managed area" or "Specific location" option selected.
Why you may ask?
This just happened to me.
I keep my settings as "Managed area" or "Specific location" so that I can work URs, PURs, etc anywhere any my managed area or State without being at a specific map area
Someone contacts me by chat for assistance in a location that is not in my managed area or specific location (whichever I have set) and I help them out. Reporter is a happy camper.
Since I don't…

Please add covered bridge warnings like the train tracks warning you have. Lancaster Couny PA’s covered bridges are damaged by large vehicl.
Pls add covered bridge warnings like the train track warnings you already have. I live in Lancaster County PA where such bridges are severely damaged by large vehicles that shouldn’t be on them.

Add map comments to the "All issues" section
It would be great to have all map comments in one place, and the all issues sections seems perfect for this. Include some filters like comment type (point, area), comment expiration date, comment creator (me, other), etc.
73 votesGreat timing! We’re currently working on it. Keep an eye out for updates on the WME.

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.

Please can you introduce sub and sub-sub folders etc. for saved places.
It would be great to be able to have and categorise sub folders with labels such as restaurants, hospitals, friends, clients etc.. These might be further nested to a higher level by area, county or country for example.
It is really very cumbersome to scroll through hundreds of saved places to find the one I want. When I travel abroad I have different countries places all mixed together in one long list. With nested sub folders, finding a particular saved place could be done in mere seconds.6 votes -
Opening hours, by appointment only
Looks useful to me to add the option 'By appointment only' to 'Opening hours' in WME. You still need to choose the days on which an appointment can be made. It is important that the telephone number is stated correctly in the data.

Editor visibility default state should be Visible (not invisible)
Problem Description:
I frequently see my status as invisible when logging into WME, even after I have previously explicitly set it to visible. The visibility appears to reset back to invisible after some time has elapsed, maybe a day or more, or perhaps it resets after session expiry. I am not certain exactly what criteria causes the visibility to reset back to invisible. I would much prefer to remain visible in WME without having to repeatedly check and manually set myself back to visible each time I authenticate or access WME.Requested Solution:
Please adjust the default value or default…42 votes -
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 -
Habilitar botón de Obras Temporales
Seria una buena utilidad, habilitar una nueva función en el panel de avisos de acceso rápido en la App, para notificar Obras de larga duración, o Obras de Corta Duración, estipulando un intervalo de tiempo fijo para mantener los avisos.
Un ejemplo: Cortan un carril por obras, por una rehabilitación de la mediana en una autovía, el tiempo de la obra no lo sabes, pero al ver que es una obra de gran envergadura, pondrías Aviso de Obra Larga duración.
Ejemplo 2: Vas circulando y ves que están asfaltando una calle, seguramente en 2-3 días, este terminada. Notificas aviso de…9 votes -
Hallo. Wäre ein Option für Grenzübergang zu sperren nicht schlecht.
Hallo. Wäre ein Option für Grenzübergang zu sperren nicht schlecht.
Mit Einsatzfahrzeug darf ich nicht über die Grenze fahren, aber manchmal führt die Navi mich dort durch. Und manchmal verbietet auch keine andere Option.
Wie ich mich errinere, in iGo Navigation war diese Option verfügbar.
Ich glaube könnten wir hier auch nutzen.4 votes -

Display capture date for Satellite and Additional Imagery
This topic has been brought up in many meetups. The usual response is that the date is available and can easily be surfaced in WME.
However, this feature is still not implemented so here's the official suggestion for it. Could you please display the capture date for both Satellite and Additional Imagery?

Layer toggling keyboard shortcut for Hazards
There are some discrepancies between the shortcuts and the actual Layer menu when it comes to Hazards. Currently, there are shortcuts to toggle Speed cameras and Railroad crossings only.
However, there are other Hazards with more frequent instances on the map that could also benefit from keyboard shortcuts. In my opinion, a single toggle for the entire Hazards section would be sufficient. Nonetheless, I'd welcome additional individual toggles along with the general one.
