To process requests efficiently, please provide:
In the subject of your post
- Segment(s) lock level (e.g., L5)
- Your level (e.g. L2)
- The location (City, Village, Area)
In the message
- Describe why you need the unlock
- Give a [Permalink](https://wiki.waze.com/wiki/Permalink#Permalink) to the segment(s) you wish to unlock
When a request is completed
- If your request has been completed, mark the topic as resolved (green tick)

Example

> [https://www.waze.com/editor/?env=row&lon=85.31140&lat=27.69455&zoom=7&segments=339360264](https://www.waze.com/editor/?env=row&lon=85.31140&lat=27.69455&zoom=7&segments=339360264)
Please note that a higher level editor may choose to fix an unlock request themselves, so higher value segments will remain protected at their level.
