Map Edit request from WME

Post by smokeeater
Is it possible to "advise" an editor to change something on a map (like road not closed anymore) from WME? I know you can do Map Issues from the APP, but what about WME? I can only edit Level 2 and this closure is level 5.

Thanks

Switch over to Livemap and click on the location, "Report a problem."

You can PM the editor that locked it. Or you can drop a UR there from the live map too.

"PM the editor" means use the Forum's Private Message capability. You know the name of the editor, so run a search for them (using the Members button in the top right next to FAQ) Once you find them, click "Send Private Message"

"Drop a UR from the live map" means go to the place you want to drop the Update Request in WME, then click on the "Live Map" button above it. You will go to the Waze Live Map in the same location. Click where you want to drop the UR and then click on where it says 'Report a Problem' in the bubble that comes up.

Also, posting in the Update/Unlock Request forum or the State Forum has been suggested. That's four ways. Certainly one of them will work.

You can post in the US Unlock forum, or the forum for your state. Please include a permalink so they know where to go.
