HouseNumbers: Too restricted editing possibilities?
I live in Denmark. I tried editing housenumbers with the new house number changes in Waze. I find my possibilities are rather limited. I can to a small degree set new housenumbers, but for half the numbers, I get 'wrong side' or similar errors and there's no force button.
Then I tried editing a segment where I once entered house-numbers in the old format (start and end number for a segment). There I also was not allowed to make changes: "You have no permissions to make some of the changes. Please check and try again.".
I have tried looking for where to post a local area admin update request, but I have failed to find it for denmark. Also I would expect the area admin to be flooded by these micro-management requests. I find it sad that it is so cumbersome, because I fear it will be a major blockage for getting the community to update the maps. Also I find the numbers to be important, as in my personal experience I find I often end up using Google Maps instead when navigating to a location where I have never been.
I hope I didn't end up pouring too much bile there, I guess I'm a bit frustrated that a small excitement to update the 'cool' waze experience, turned into a frustrating task of figuring out how to solve the problem. If the waze error dialog had somehow directed me to a country-relevant forum, that might also be a huge improvement (if such a subpage exists).
Best regards, Alex
