  1. Enable closure duplication on expired closures

    It would be very convenient if you could duplicate an expired closure as you currently can with an active or planned one.

  2. Show name of editor on expired closures

    The new status of real time closures in WME is good. It would even be better if we can see who the editor was who set the closure when the closure is expired; now this is not possible. That way you can liaise with the editor if a UR comes in relating to that closure.

  3. Add a keyboard shortcut to toggle the Issues Layer

    The new issues layer is not linked with a keyboard shortcut to toggle it on/off, at it is the case for other layers like roads, place, closure,....

    This would really help, especially for koifish suggestion, so we can quickly toggle on/off the suggestion and see what's under it on the image, or even if there is not a already existing segment hidden by suggestion.

  4. Add checkboxes to flag unusable/inaccessible gas stations

    Editors occasionally find angry URs from drivers who couldn't use or reach stations listed in their gas-station finder. For example, a substantial fraction of drivers -- the majority? -- cannot use non-gasoline fuel, cardlocked stations, military-only stations, or private stations located inside secure installations. Many cannot use members-only stations, such as Costco in the US.

    One way to prevent these misroutings would be to add checkboxes for limited-audience gas stations, for example as follows. The app could then let drivers opt in as desired.

    In WME, the list might read:
    - Military only
    - Members only
    - Non-gasoline fuels only…

  5. House numbers for villages with no street names

    There are many places where there are no street names - it's just "City name - number" as the address.

  7. Allow marking issues unread from the Issue Tracker

    Currently, editors can "star" and "unstar" individual issues from the Issue Tracker panel, but there is no similar way to mark issues "read" or "unread". Once an issue is "read," you need to open it and then mark it unread from the issue's interface. Suggestion: add a button next to the star to allow toggling each issue's read/unread status.

  8. Possibilità di vedere i distributori lungo la strada senza doverne fare una ricerca.

    Sarebbe utile vedere se lungo la strada che si sta percorrendo (con o senza destinazione assegnata) ci si avvicina ad un distributore senza doversi fermare per farne una ricerca apposita.
    Grazie.

  9. Incluir alerta de quebra-molas. Hoje não temos como alertar sobre a existência de quebra-molas nas vias urbanas ou rodovias.

    Em várias vias temos construções de quebra-molas pelas prefeituras e mesmo em rodovias, onde este pode provocar acidentes caso o motorista não saiba da sua existência. Hoje não temos como incluir alerta de quebra-molas, o que é um obstáculo muito importante de dar ciência ao motorista.

  10. 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.

  11. Make the roads bigger on smartphones

    I would like to be ble to correct directly from my smartphone (i.e. Android)
    It is perfect from a laptop.
    But on smartphones, roads are too small.
    If it is possible to make them bigger only for smartphones that would be perfect

  12. Representation of average speed meters in Lithuania

    Average speed meters in Lithuania measure not only the average speed in the specified zone, but also the instantaneous speed at the beginning and end of the section. Therefore, the beginning and end of the average speed measuring section should be marked on the map with speedometer symbols.

  14. Last Edit

    Track last edit for self as editor in WME and have a link to go there.

    Sometimes WME gets stuck. Requires hard refresh. But if last edit was important and was not complete, where was it. I was too busy to capture a link.

    Would have to be a 2-phase commit. Capture the location for the editor. then attempt the edit save. Otherwise, If it crashes, the last edit would not get recorded.

    Please have a link to go back to last edit on WME load.

  17. The possibility of making edits similar to Google Maps editor

    I suggest the possibility of making edits as is done in Google Maps editor. There, anyone can edit freely and these edits are subject to technical evaluation before being approved. Here we can improve and, for example, put that these edits are evaluated by editors of a higher level than the one who submitted the edit.

    The reason for this suggestion is due to the probable problem that more places, besides my city, may end up facing: currently I am a level 2 novice editor, and I live in a small town in the state of São Paulo, but this…

  20. 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.
