[Page Update] Editing restrictions

Post by
The Editing restrictions page needs to be updated to include the new permissions released today in WME version v2.4-21. In particular,

* Changes in permissions: L1 editors cannot delete segments unless they created it themselves
* Changes in permissions: L1&2 editors cannot set difficult turns
* Changes in permissions: L1 editors cannot close URs

Would anyone object to a direct update of the page or should I copy it to my user space, make the changes, and post here for approval?

Anyone ever thought of simplifying this page with making a Table of Rank and associated abilities?

I would add that info to the rank table at the bottom in a format that matches what's already in the table, like Category:Update requests Description: The minimum rank to close an update request is 2... etc. I think this qualifies as uncontroversial maintenance of a page, and you should feel free to update the table. As for detailed description of these things above the table, you may want to propose some text here explaining these new restrictions

Came across this page while doing other things. At first glance it seems to overlap significantly with the Map Protection article. I wonder if the two should be merged, or...?

Regrettably I have no time to pursue this myself, just bringing the apparent redundancy/overlap to folks' attention.

urclose should be "2", not "3", yes? It became 3 on the Editing Restrictions page when it was converted to use the lookups: https://wazeopedia.waze.com/wiki/USA/in ... did=162381
