Hey Chris good to have this topic for all India wazer, by the way last night i sent you a beep beep and a message not sure if you got it. Paritosh sent me a test message but then i came to know he is using the Google play version, will test with him again after he installs the beta version.

Hiya there everyone!

I’ve been Wazing for a few months and editing for even fewer months but I’m totally hooked. I’ve managed to climb the ranks pretty quickly and am quite happy with that.

I’m glad to get your help in making edits more accurately and consistently.

It’s also great to see more and more Wazers on the streets. Gives me hope that this will be the top urban sat-nav app in India at some point. We sure do need it.

Hi lunarplexus,

Welcome to WME… Have seen you once in kolkata… i guess you travel a lot.

Yes we definitely need a lot of hands in editing as theres a lot of work in the map of india, its just that waze needs more exposure in india. The best thing is that now the regular wazers can meet up here and discuss any issues and queries that one might have over here. Take care and happy wazing :slight_smile:

ah, you did see me in Kolkata. I did come down there for a couple of days. I don’t travel as much as I would want to though.

Nice to meet you, man. Thanks for the encouragement. I’m trying to promote the app as much as I can now but people turn away because it’s not quite up to the mark yet. But since we can see its potential, I guess it’s up to us to make it awesome.

:slight_smile:

Yes i did :slight_smile:

There lies the problem… people don’t stick around long enough to realize its potential. Together the few of us who are there can make a difference and even i feel the same. Lets see how successful we all dedicated editors can be.

Hi,
I am just new to the Waze community.

Need some help regarding the map editing and general practice.

I have gone through the wiki, forum as well … From past 2 weeks or so I am doing that only! :wink: but didn’t get the hang of it!

Thanks

Dear Geetanjali,

Warmest Welcome, to the Second Indian Lady Wazer, on the Forums. If you could PM me your area, then I’ll request an Area Manager (AM) to assist you. I would be more than happy to help you get started as well.

Regards,
Chris

Welcome to the community Geetanjali. I know it can be a bit confusing in the begining, but as they say practice make man (& woman) perfect. Just keep on editing and you will slowly realise how it works, later when you realise you had made a mistake earlier then you can always go ahead and correct it. As you mentioned you have already been through forums, still here are the two links which may help you understand some stuff.

In the first link Chris has already discussed with Indian wazers and has concluded upon the mapping guideline on POIs, and in the 2nd one Darryl-BHP has suggested and then a discussion has happened upon road policy to be followed in India, these will be really helpful to start with.

Also in the forum we have some active wazers who are always happy to help, Chrianchris is the country manager, so if you have any locked segment and you know that its not correct or has changed since the last edit then you can contact him and he can unlock it for you, you just have to send a permalink to him.

Then there is sk2380 who is ranked second in our country after Chris and will also be able to help you with any issues.

After these two there are some active wazers like Parithosh, Lunarplexus and yes me too who are active on forum and can help when you need one. But remember that always paste the permalink because that will help the others to identify the segment.

Take care and happy wazing :slight_smile:
