This would help fix a problem going back many years. In the past problems with maintaining the database were given for not doing it but the result has been incorrect navigation because of discrepancies between Google Maps and Waze. I have handled many user reports of wrong destinations and that is frustrating to both users and to editors. It's time to fix it.

Great timing! We’re currently working on being able to track the number of closed map suggestion. Keep an eye out for updates on the WME.

Thanks for your feedback. At this time, this doesn't fit on our roadmap, but we'll keep it in mind for future product planning.

Recently I handled a situation where a kid playing with his mother's phone dropped over 40 "turn not allowed" URs in about 5 minutes as she drove on I-85. Then I spent over a half hour figuring out if any were legitimate and cleaning up the rest. WME also has difficult when multiple URs are dropped in exactly the same spot. This needs attention too.

Who makes the decision to designate a road "dangerous or unsafe." That's a very subjective decision that will generate comments both for and against by Wazers. Perhaps it will be a bit more objective if multiple editors can actually drive the road and reach a consensus, but in many cases that will not be possible.

Add a space at the beginning of the correct name and apply. The correct name will be accepted and the space will be automatically deleted.

This is also involved with ALT cities. Now if a street is outside the city limits we are supposed to add it to the map with "NONE" as the primary city and then add an ALT city to show the mailing address.
At the time the ALT city program started I was part of PNW and was involved in one of the first test area and spent many days adding the ALT city name to streets in the Grants Pass and Medford areas. Adding the ZIP Code would have been much easier and less time consuming but Waze staff didn't want to do it that way. Now 10-12 years later we're still doing it the hard way and still debating whether we should add the ZIP Code. Of course we should!
Also in many areas new/inexperienced editors have added what should be the ALT city as the primary city but that causes problems with what is shown as the city area and someone is supposed to fix that, requiring even more editing time.
Some have objected from the very beginning of this discussion more than 10 years ago that there are problems with ZIP Codes in some areas, but wouldn't it be better to use ZIP Codes and then fix them in the relatively few where there are problems?
Please forgive my rant. There is a previous comment by me that was a little more polite but I have strong feelings about this and wish it could be resolved. Thanks for listening.
