I have a map edit that is locked because I don’t normally edit maps. Suggestions? Can someone level 5 do it for me?
Thank you.
Hello, njlondres!
There are several ways we can go about this.
-
There’s a US Unlock Forum where you can request the necessary segments be unlocked to your level.
-
There’s our NOR (Northeast Region) Discord server, which has an unlock channel.
-
We can just work of this forum thread.
Let me know what you prefer, and I’ll let you know how to make a Permalink to share the segments in question.

Thx Greg, I am a complete novice so I am happy to rely on your recommendation.
Discord would be the fastest way to communicate - and you’ll have access to our entire editing team.

This forum thread would be the second-fastest, since I get email notifications (so should you!) that there’s a reply.
The Unlock Forum would be the slowest out of our three options at this point.

Oh, and of course you can always message me directly via the forum messaging system.
(Your inbox is found up in one of the top bars of the forum website.)
Anyhow … here’s how to make a Permalink to share with other editors: https://wazeopedia.waze.com/wiki/USA/Map_Editor_Interface_and_Controls#Permalink
Go ahead and make one for the segments you need to work on and share it via one of the three ways we talked about above.

The Discord invite address is “invalid”. Help!
Ugh. They expire after a while.
Looks like you found us though!
My apologies, I don’t understand now any of this works. I can’t make heads or tails of discord. My edit has to do with the junction of route 1 and 295 in Lawrence, NJ. WAZE treats US 1 as an exit when in fact 295 is the exit. The driving instructions are thus confusing and the map is incorrect. I have screenshots of the map and the highway signs. I’m an Uber driver and local which is how I know it’s wrong.
Yeah, it’s a bit like drinking from the fire hose.
Discord is just another chat platform.
Myself and another NJ State Manager are very familiar with that area.
If you can’t figure out how to post/share images here on the forum, just email them to jerseywazers@gmail.com and put NJMedic2535 in the subject line so they get forwarded to me.
I’m not currently aware of any junction (north or southbound) where users are getting an “exit” instruction for staying on US 1.
