Good afternoon, everyone.
I’m new here and I’d like to know how I can get access to map editing on Waze (adding speed bumps, speed cameras, and others). On my routes, I see that there are some objects like the ones I mentioned that aren’t marked; I’d like to be able to edit them to contribute to these markings. I’m from the Guarapari-ES region. I made a similar post in the general section, but an editor suggested I post here in the regional one (Southeast/ES). Since I mentioned I’m a newbie here, I don’t know if this is the correct place for this post, so I apologize in advance.
Thanks

Welcome to the Waze editors community!
The objects you mentioned are permanent alerts and, to ensure map security, a specific editing level is required for each of them.
Since you are still at level 1, you can only view them, but you can sign up for the Mentorship Program through this form. This will help you better understand the editing process and advance to the next levels with the help of an experienced editor.
Thanks, @PatrickBLopes@daviaraujo93 for the welcome.
Davi, I’m filling out the form you pointed out and I have to choose a mentor. Can I choose you or do I have to choose someone specific?
You can leave it blank and one of the available mentors will get in touch with you. But if you’d like, you can suggest Patrick; he’s from the same state as you and is closer to help you!
I’ve created this new introduction thread so that new and current editors who are starting out and/or already editing in the state of Espírito Santo can introduce themselves: tell us your name, where you’re based, what you usually edit, what you do, etc…
I’ve been a Waze user for a long time, but I’ve always wanted to participate and help more. Finally, I’m managing to balance my time and learn more about this fascinating app that lets us collaborate in real-time with many people and also provides very relevant public utility services. I commute daily along the Serra, Vitória, and Vila Velha axis; whenever possible, I will keep the entire community informed about events and updates. I hope to contribute a lot from now on, always mindful of the community rules.
Many thanks to @PatrickBLopes for the support and mentorship so far.
You’ve already got off to a great start by sending detailed information for creating new events, which will directly contribute to better routes for users during the events.
And with Patrick’s help, you’ll be an excellent editor. Happy editing!
