This thread is for sharing the work of overzealous editors (whether new or experienced).MapWrangler wrote:I’m a newbie.

But to answer your question, please refer to https://wiki.waze.com/wiki/Best_map_editing_practice
and specifically https://wiki.waze.com/wiki/Best_map_edi ... rking_Lots
Those should answer your question regarding why much of your detailed work was undone.
Always keep in mind that Waze is not a mapping app, it is a routing app. The goal is to get the driver to an address, and once there, to get them away and back on the main road. When you are in a parking lot, the only "road" that you care about is the one closest to you that leads to the exit. That is also the only road that Waze cares about. "Please drive to specified route" with a purple line 6 lanes away is much simpler for the driver than "Turn left, then left again.... Turn right, then in 400ft, right again..."
