Level 2 Update - Monroe, Connecticut

Post by AFWasserman
My Level: 1
This segment is one example of the many updates recently in town that are still pending from 2017 and 2018. Looks like a serious lack of editors with any review ability in this area, or no-one is watching. Just going through to edit a bunch of store updates I noticed from the app I can see that the updates have been requested (mostly), but no one is approving.

eg.
Store has been closed for at least a year -
https://www.waze.com/en-US/editor?env=u ... 76.2081750

These are both the same new CVS and dupes of each other:
https://www.waze.com/en-US/editor?env=u ... 40.5762731
https://www.waze.com/en-US/editor?env=u ... 40.4655934

Another year old update:
https://www.waze.com/en-US/editor?env=u ... 39.2669677

Just need someone local with common-sense and detail orientation to sweep through and update everything.

Hello AFWasseman,

Thank you for your help in your area of Connecticut. With your forum post here I'm certain someone will be along shortly who has that part of the country available to make and submit changes. Another method that may help you with these changes quicker would be to connect with the other editors from Connecticut and the New England Region by joining them in their Discord collaboration discussion forum here - https://goo.gl/forms/X24ENSZ6ANw2sQpV2 . As you encounter map issues or need approvals, unlocks, etc you will find someone who can assist usually when you are ready. They are a good bunch of folks there who can lend a hand.

AFWasseman,

Thanks for bringing this to our attention, all of the issues you have identified have been resolved.

We do have relatively few editors in CT with a ton of work to do, so Place updates are not as high a priority as User Reports or other map updates. We'd appreciate any help you can offer as it seem you know the Monroe area. Feel free to contact me directly or, even better, as dfw_gis suggested, join us on Discord and speak with CT editors real-time.

Thanks again for the assistance, hope to hear from you soon!
