As far as rank, your edit count is what determines that, not total points. 363 edits would put you at rank 1. You can read more about points here.

Edit area only lasts for 3 months after your last drive in an area. So say you last drove in France 6 months ago, that area would no longer be available for editing. Your drives will still appear in the Drives listing, but edit area would not. And as others have said, synchronizing between the servers can take some time.

Last drives "recorded" by waze are from November 19 2017
All of my recent drives, right up to yesterday, are shown in my Drives tab.

One thing to check would be that you are signed in to the correct server for your country. Check the top left of the editor window:

Staff does not monitor these forums. That has been mentioned before. These forums are users helping other users, and unfortunately there is nothing any of us can do about missing drives. It has also been mentioned before that drives will either show up at some point or they won't, there really is nothing that can be done about it

No updates other than what is shown here. My drives also stopped logging on the 18th. We'll just have to wait and see what comes of it.

I also have several drives still missing from the April 22-May 13 time range. Some show my morning drive but not my afternoon drive.

Honestly, I don't want Waze tracking my every move if I am not running the app. "Big Brother" is a feature I am glad Waze does not have. But seriously, I can't imagine the infrastructure required to track every move of more than 50 million Wazers, so little glitches here and there don't surprise me.

Sending logs has nothing to do with your drives or other personal information, this is for troubleshooting only, as mentioned here.

They will probably show up in the next couple of days. My drives have been taking a few days recently, especially the longer ones.

There may be something else going on then, my drives are posting recently, a 150 mile drive I took today posted already. Check your data settings maybe? Permissions?
