Thanks for wasting 1 hour of my time! (I googled "comedy capers"...)

Solution could be to make the UR visible only to the originator for a few days, then to make it visible to higher level editors, and only after that to the general public.

If I'm leaving a note, I always put "txemt" that way people know either to stay away from it, or that I'm directing them to something very specific. Two nights ago, I put a UR down that said "delete rest area--txemt" so if anyone saw it, they'd know to delete the rest area, but 2 weeks ago, I put down "investigate--txemt" meaning that I knew something was up, but couldn't explain it, so when anyone saw the UR, they'd leave it for me, and when I saw it, it would trigger my memory as to why I made such UR.
But my proposal is foolproof. To encourage doing ones URs by one self, a single mail could be delivered with links to the self-created URs - along with links to the wiki, the forum.

If it is not your own truck, you can be picky.

Idle threats!
This is probably just the tip of the iceberg: lawyers all over the world are spamming Waze, pressing for "financial contribution". That may be how the speedcams in Germany were lost.

Problem: Kerstmis
Reported on: yesterday

Kerstmis means Christman. Yeah I could see how that'd become problematic in July.
My guess: user tried to report "kermis" (fancy fair) as a reason for a closure but the autocorrection got it wrong. And who is Christman? :-)

User performed a U-Turn and went on his/her way. I guess Waze needs to keep train schedules and route accordingly :lol:

Definitely not.
On my iDevices I get redirected to the iTunes-page advertising googlemaps. I have googlemaps installed, but it isn't launched.
