[Update Page]Map Editing

Post by voludu2
I would like to update the page to really highlight information for new editors.

It seems to me the most important message is something along the lines of: "Experienced editors have learned what makes the map work for wazers. Work with them and learn this for yourself."

Two ways to accomplish this are
1) Feature a link to the new page https://wiki.waze.com/wiki/Waze_Map_Editor/Welcome
2) move/copy/replicate/transclude some of the information from that page onto this page.

What do you think?

The WAZE app is absolutely terrific. But trying to find help with entering a road closure is an unbelievable chore.

There is a road near me that is closed for construction for the next two months. I have tried every conceivable combination of what the app tells me to do to enter a closure -- and nothing works.

What am I doing wrong?

The easiest and most permanent way to get a closure on the map is through the online Waze Map Editor. This is not the correct forum for this discussion or to make such a request. You can get help in your area by reaching out to your local community, every country/state has their own forum where you can reach local editors. and theres a general forum for editing questions. Here is the wiki page discussing all about closures and how to enter them.

PS generally we discourage replying to threads which have been dormant over 6-12 months. Its best to start a new thread with your issue in the topic.
