Private places (houses) with no address?

Post by BugLaden
I've run across several new place submissions that are for the most part private homes with a picture included. However, there has been no address included. Are we supposed to delete such submissions?

Thanks Carl. What is the proper way to submit these places for review?

I can't keep up with the places submission process. I thought waze was making it so residential places couldn't be saved without an address, but can't find that statement now. Maybe it was wishful thinking on my part, but I haven't run across one without the address recently.

I was trying to find the correct address for some the early ones, but its not always easy or even possible. Without an address, I don't see any reason to keep such a place on the map.

At this point if you find recently submitted residential places without an address, we should submit them to waze for review as a problem with the place submission interface.

Waze has said they the bug causing the issue and hope to have a fix live next version. So I guess at this point we will need to simply reject private places with no addresses until the next the version is released.

Yup. I reject private places (residential) without an address, because you'd never be able to see the photo without an associated address.
