Updated segment data guidance for US
Hello Wiki-sters,
I've been out of the Waze documentation game for a while, so I'm posting this here to find out next steps for updating the wiki. Based on a poll in the US State Manager forum, accessible by SMs, RCs, CMs and Champs alike, we have voted to make the following standard/guideline addition:
Affects: Any segment which 1) has a delivery address specified by the United States Postal Service, and 2) has primary segment City name which is different from the USPS address.
Standard: There shall be (an) alternate street(s) defining the USPS street/city combination.
For example: Why: addresses for which we have no City defined in Waze (for map visualization purposes) are not searchable in Waze using a House Number nor a Residential Point Place.
I have documented several Q&A which may be of use, but not sure how that will fit in the wiki, or where. But can provide those on demand. (They are in the thread linked above.)
