What is the point editing?

[tt91]

I added some roads in my nighbirhood months ago and they are not on Waze map.

Are the roads red?

[tt91]

yes

You have to click on the road and edit the road details. Set country, city, road name and hit Apply. Then you can set the direction, road type. When all done click on the save button.

You can read all about editing in the Wiki: http://www.waze.com/wiki/

The roads are not complete. They need State/City/names. Please read:

and

There should be clearer messges.

What if the road has no name or I do not know it?

It does not work when I select multiple segments? Do I have to do them one by one?

No road name- click box no name

Yeah, I think so, I have never been able to select all red roads to edit. Got to go one by one.

Seriously this editor is going to make me crazy. Has it been designed to make you click the most possible number of times?

Default one-way streets? Each time I create a street I have to change it to one way.

Default red junction? Each time I create a street I have to click two or three times to make the arrow green.

This is so user unfriendly.

The wiki links I posted earlier will help you over come some of those complaints. There are keyboard shortcuts you can use to help change direction and turn restrictions. After you have done it a while you start developing a patern for building and updating roads.

2nd. The editing manual in the Wiki needs to be read to understand what needs to be done to properly edit Waze maps. Hopefully once you understand better how it works it will be more enjoyable. With that said, map editing is not for everyone.

Many assume they can just start editing without reading any documentation. That would be a bad assumption. Do you just rip apart the engine of your car and rebuild it without having any training on how to do so?
