  2. Añadir editores en UR

    A veces es necesario involucrar otro editor en un UR, yo normalmente envío el PL y le contacto por el foro, chat, etc... ¿sería posible enviarle el UR al editor directamente desde el UR con algún comentario?

  3. Limites velocidas estandares España

    En España hay unos limites estandar, 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80, 90, 100, 110, 120, creo que sólo esos, pero no sé porqué el editor permite números no usados (p.e. 82 o 17), se podría hacer un desplegable simplificando y algún "otro" para poner el número exacto.

  6. "Show on map" in UR should zoom in to UR itself, not to its route

    It happens rather often: when I open a UR and click "Show on map", WME zooms in, but the UR isn't visible. I need to zoom out 1-2 levels in order to see the UR and then zoom in to it manually.

    I guess, the algorithm of WME calculates the "Show on map" point basing on the user's route. But the user saw the problem in the point of the report, so WME should zoom in to it.

  9. Center the elevation in the box

    When editing the elevation, currently the number in the elevation box is left justified. This puts it right next to the negative (-) sign making it look like it is a negative elevation.

    I recommend center justifying the number to make it more obvious what the actual number is.

  13. Message "Do not response by mail" when editor commented an update request

    When an editor commented in an update request there are hinds in the mail from waze the user should answer per app or at the WME. In my opinion it's urgent to make clear the response per mail is not working. There should be a hint: "Do not reply by mail, it will not be delivered!"

  14. School zones variable speed limit

    Most of our speed zones in province of Quebec are variable in time of day, day of week and month of year. Do you think you could add this feature so it represents the actual speed limit in real time.
    In a regular 50km/h residential zone, the school zone is normally active from 7 to 17, monday to friday, september to july.

  15. Add surveillance camera as an option under the "enforcement cameras" category

    Add surveillance camera as an option under the "enforcement cameras" category. Currently there is only red light, speed, or fake. There are times where a camera is tagged as red light in my community but, in fact, it is only surveillance.

  17. Change the wording in the automatic email when an editor comments on a UR

    When a user reports a map problem in the app, then an editor responds to it in the Waze Map Editor, the reporter gets an automatic email that says:

    "An editor from the Waze mapping community wants to solve the problem, but needs some more information.", followed by the editor's comment.

    The problem with this wording: This is not always true. If we can identify the cause of the report without needing clarification, then often we may simply use the comment box to thank the reporter for their report. Thus, the comment box isn't always used to ask for more…

  20. Provide helpful suggestions when showing a save error

    When you display a save error in WME, please give us helpful suggestions on how to resolve the issue, not just a generic "check and try again." Check what? What are we looking for? How do we fix it? What is "modifying GuidanceMode? What are CS Lanes? Saying "Check and try again" doesn't help.

    Example:
    Modifying GuidanceMode is allowed only for CS Lanes
    Suggestion: Check and try again
