None of the cities i have created the last 5-6 weeks shows on map, also existing city borders do not expand with new roads, everything seems to be locked.
Here is one city thats not showing http://world.waze.com/cartouche/?zoom=1 ... FTFFFFTTTT
As i understand it city borders do not shrink either when corrected, but that is some known issue right?

When editing the road details of a road in the new city, just provide the new cityname in the City-textbox.
The new city will be created on Save.

Your edits seem te be from the last few days. As you can see at the bottom of the live map, it has not been updated since June 7th. As soon as this date starts to progress again, your edits should show.

The search tool can take a (long) while longer to update, so don't worry if you cannot search yet, it will become possible eventually.

Mmm, well i'm still trying to update my map... Whit also city name to get it show n the map, but nothing going to happens. I can find the streets whit the search tool but i can't show them on live map or on phone, is this an upload issue? I need just to wait or is an issue, a bug or just mine fault at updating map? Maybe if there was a way to directly mail an area manager to ask him for a chek of his job?

Thanks Strix.
I can see that there's an issue preventing these cities from being displayed but I'm not sure yet what caused it. We're working on fixing this issue right away.

I seem to be having the same problems in Finland in the area where I'm area manager and been trying to map for a few weeks now. The city names don't seem to appear in the map. Is there something wrong there preventing them to appear?

Hello,

There is a serious issue with the city of Brussels, Belgium.
Someone must have filled in the city name based on an unaccurate area.
Every correction I am trying to make is auto-blocked with the comment of a double city name.
1. Specifically for Brussels is that it is one region that consists of 19 communes (relics from the past).
So, very often the same streetname is used in different communes. Try to find your way when every town is Brussels from Finland to Spain (extreme of the present situation)!
2. Furthermore the city or town limits of Brussels are not always correctly drawn. I tried to report the problem on specific points, but with no result whatsoever.

I tried to fill in a lot of streets to help the community, but it is getting disappointing, when I receive no reply or response whatsoever on my problem reports !

Without correction I think this system will be unusable.

But if u look at Live map u see names of towns. I cant see any name that I put in City box! So I cant search for it!
Where I live it´s:
Malmö (Visible) Sweden's 3 biggest town!
Lomma
Limhamn
Oxie
Klågerup
Bara
Arlöv (that is visible for some reason)
Burlöv (same)
Klagshamn
Höllviken
Falsterbo
And so on....
It´s like u have to create a boundary for that town/city/village to show on live map.
