Hi there, It's nice to see brand new users who want to get involved. But I strongly encourage you to learn about editing on the "regular" WME first before requesting beta access. You've only made two map edits so far according to your profile. The beta editor is for testing new features and that requires knowing the basics first. Others who requested access have usually at least reached level 2 or a few hundred edits already.

Getting involved with the community can also mean posting in your country's forum and getting to know other editors from your area through the WME chat. In fact there was a time when that was how people would hear about the beta, by talking to others or their community leaders, new users would most often not know about it without getting involved in their communities first.

I don't know what is Irad's opinion on this, maybe you'll be added, but I just wanted to share my thoughts and advice to you as you are a brand new user and editor.

Yes, you can actually find it on Google if you search for "Waze WME beta login" or anything similar.

Here's the URL https://editor-beta.waze.com/editor/

Let me try WME Beta.
I suppose you know because it's obvious, but WME beta can be less functional and have more bugs than regular/prod WME sometimes, because it's a beta. If you want to try it for "more stability" or less issues, then get ready for a roller coaster ;)

In any case I hope you will participate in the forums to report bugs if you find any.

I didn't even know it existed, I checked and there has been only 2 posts in 2015, the rest are all from 2013... I guess it is not really used anymore. Maybe ask top_gun_de for more information.

Saying AYE here is only for/about the global WME beta forums.

World like to join your team as I'm familliar with maps and navigation software because I did work quite some years as "Head of QA" at TomTom :)
Hi,

Just some recommendations since you have never made any edit on the Waze Map Editor before according to your profile and this seems to be your first forum post.

It is recommended to search for your local community if you seek help about local issues:
viewforum.php?f=19

Check the wiki to find guides on best map edit practices and other useful information:
https://wiki.waze.com/wiki/index.php/Waze_Map_Editor

Have fun ! :)

Not sure why I need to re-apply as I'm already a Beta tester. But I have no access to the forum.
Waze removed people only from the beta forum group in December, but nobody was revoked WME beta access.

As it seems there have been a few mistakes, so if you lost your access to the forum and wish to regain it please say "AYE" and I'll add you back.

Thanks!
