@BellVillense requested me to post here.

User can’t edit in a certain area, even that he/she has permits to edit in that area, because he/she has driven there in the past three months.

Error: “That change isn’t allowed at this time and won’t be sent for review”

None

Hi @velezss,

Thank you for your report. I assume the user might not have met one or more criteria in order to add new segments. Those would be:

  • 3-6 weeks of being a WME user.
  • 30+ Waze drives

Unless the user has been granted an editing area or is a special user (partner etc.), which I cannot see based on the user’s profile.
Waruiiko joined Waze on 21 March 2025 and their editing activity/profile history does not show much.

Is there any chance we can get more details from the user?

I will check some other resources explaining editing permissions

Kind regards,
Olesya
