  • To see ideas you have already voted on, select the "My feedback" filter and select "My open ideas".
(thinking…)

  1. Temporary downgrade of own editor level

    I’d like to suggest in the WME a switch (perhaps in the user control panel) for downgrading the own editor level.

    For example:
    If I’m a level 5 Editor, but only want to edit simple streets which are only on level 1, i can switch my own editor level to something lower than 5 for this action. This would prevent myself for accidental editing more important street e.g. highways.
    Compare this with an account in the IT… Even if I am an administrator… I shouldn’t be logged in always as an admin but just as a normal user with rights…

  2. Editing permissions - change request

    I suggest to chane some editing pernissions as follows (the current required level is given in parenthisis):

    1. Giving a "narrow street" road type to a segment: 3 (1)
    2. Entering a TBR / TBTR (this includes difficult turn and toll road designation): 3 (1)
    3. Enter a turn instruction override: 3 (1)
    4. Delete a segment that someone else created: 3 (2)
    5. Create a new MTE: 4 (1)
    6. View RTC details (view only): 1 (4)
    7. View of house numbers: 1 (2)

  3. Unsaved edits - apply to map without saving

    Related to this announcement:

    https://www.waze.com/discuss/t/introducing-submit-unsaved-edits-never-lose-your-edits-again/358354/25

    if there were an option to simply “apply” the unsaved edits to the map, without saving them (basically treat the unsaved edits as a draft) that would be awesome. Sometimes the browser crashes or something gets in a weird state while doing a complex edit (common use case where this happens a lot is dividing roads for the falcon snapper) and I have to start over.

    I think the times when I have a crash in a place where I'm actually ready to save my changes are much rarer than when I'm in the middle…
