ituajr says to hold off on this?

The rest will be fixed/implemented.

Ok.

Thanks for the feedback!

Fixed.

Done.

Wildcard_25 wrote:And a report for U-Turns at the end of dead-end streets.

Done.

Wildcard_25 wrote:Also could Incorrect lock level for Freeways (Lvl 5) and Minor Highways (Lvl 3) be activated.
Major Highways in Australia are locked to Lvl 3.

Done.

That would be great for the US as well. Not just enabled U turns, but also soft-disabled U turns.

There is a "Soft turns" check, so I guess it will be reported there.

Fixed.

ituajr wrote:The alternate name isn't empty - it's "Brighton Rd, Glenelg East". Also, the identification of the street at the bottom of the report (ie, "No City, No Street, No City") is misleading - the street does have a proper name.

Can't reproduce this one, but I put some more checks into the street ID -> street name convertor, please check if it helps.

Thanks!

Fixed.

The 0.4.2 is on the Web Store/userscript, so please update!

There is a new functionality: every link, description or how-to now may be overridden for a country. Please see Settings->About->Available checks, there are already some localized links and texts.

I've also started a new thread for WME Validator: forum link

Thanks guys for your feedback!

Edit: eventually it was detected but still not highlighted (at least on the beta editor).

1. Make sure you've updated to 0.4.2 (see Settings->About)
2. Make sure the segment is not selected (Validator does not highlight selected segments).
3. Try to uncheck 'Exclude non-editable segments' (but from the screenshot it looks like editable for you)
4. Try to clear the internal Validator cache (Trash button) and move the map a bit to revalidate segments.
5. Do you see the yellow highlights around? For instance, here: permalink

Please let me know if any of the above helps.

Thanks!

Hah, sorry. I imagine it could be available on a per-user trust basis for "good" L5s who are active on the forums and good at editing. Just code it for L5+ and hope it doesn't get into the wrong hands.

It could be done since scripts have access to who is logged in to WME. So simply restrict to username.

ps_au wrote:bgodette, not a bad idea, but keep in mind, how many L5+ people we have worldwide now. That list would be pretty large. Perhaps just restrict to L5+ would be better?

Why would you trust anyone on edit count alone?

Couldn't disapprove of this tool more!

It needs to not exist at all. The scope for accidental destruction is too great.

We've done a lot of requests for database changes.

Nxxx roads should be minor for example.
Of Major roads locked at lv4, freeway at lv5.

It never happened.
Now we could do it ourselves

This isn't in question but something like this will not stay in good hands. The potential for devastation is more important than the potential for good that it has.

I'm *very* interested in an abbreviation script... though I don't think I want it to be applied universally. The process it should follow is:
1. select street segment
2. activate script:
2a. select entire street
2b. update street name with appropriate abbreviations

I'm very much against a "do stuff, then pan, then do it again" sort of script -- if it was that universal of a change, it should probably be done by Waze on the database backend.

I'd love to take a look at it...
