Area Managers - Oldest Update Request?

[gettingthere]

FYI, there are 600 open URs in Netherlands.

Don't I recall a post where the Netherlands editors stated that they have enough Area Managers/Editors in the country? With 600 open URs, seems like this is not the case!

A pittance compared to what must now be open in California.

I think the majority are in non-managed areas. I will see thonight if I can find large conentrations...

Should be quick to sort out with your 3 screen display

We have new screens! There are still 4 of them, but they are HD widescreens now...

I never tried what happens to either editor when I stretch a browser window across all 4 screens....

My mistake, 4 screens. Seems to me you are better off Chrome and Papyrus running on each screen so that you can work 4 Update Requests at the same time! And since you may still have to overcome the road layer not updating issue on the World Papyrus that will give the other's time to catch up when you work on the next issue!

I've seen some in the mid-600's but so far you hold the record! It's good to see more editors here in the center of the country.

I'm a new AM. Where do I find a list of update requests for my area?

Log onto Cartouche. In the View Panel, click on the "Update Requests" link.

BTW, welcome aboard!

I just started editing maps and updating requests. I just made a general rule for myself that anything over 200 days can be closed with the canned response "If this is still an error please re-report". So far none that I know of have been re-reported. I think either the user is no longer using Waze or the issue was fixed but never closed.

If Waze Update Requests took a more Help Desk like approach to the broken parts of the map I think there would be alot quicker turn around time on the fixes. Yesterday I went through and updated maybe 150(?) URs in about 2 hours. 90% were old and no longer valid and closable.

Did you have to send in permalinks for the whole state to get AM status?

FYI, there are 600 open URs in Netherlands. 356 in the UK.

Where did you found that?

The World update request spreadsheet. I downloaded it to Excel and then use Autofilter. Country is one of the fields.

URL please.

I've responded to a couple a little over 600 days old. But 700? Wow. I'm sure Mr TubaGuy is happy people can finally locate that house.

From the blog, it looks like May 25, 2009: Great buzz around waze’s announcement. That was 749 days ago.

So what do you say when you respond to someone who left the UR that long ago?
