Error adding places in WME
Hello,
For over a week now, I have been experiencing an issue with WME where I am unable to add places in certain locations. What's strange about this is that I can create a lake place say at position (x, y), but I then I can't create a neighbouring lake at say (x+200m, y).
Just for reference, I am editing in Co. Monaghan.
What I know so far:
Here's a screen recording of the error happening in WME.
Permalink from the video if any other editor would like to try to add this location. Any places I have tried to add that haven't worked have a point comment on them. If you successfully managed to add a place, remember to remove the comment!

What I know so far:
- There is no way to tell if a place addition is going to throw an error.
- It is seemingly random, but it happens for a higher percentage of places near the border with the UK. (Although this would not explain the error appearing right in the middle of the county).
- Larger places tend to throw the error more often. These are especially frustrating since it could have taken up to 5 minutes to draw the lake/lough, only for the error to throw.
- You can create point places in "working areas" and move them gradually up to the desired place by moving a short distance, then saving and repeating.
- Whether or not a place is near a "city" in Waze, doesn't seem to have an effect.
- This seems to be a localised problem. Ie. I'm not experiencing this problem when I add places in my UK areas.
- It's an instantaneous error. It happens as soon as you click save. As if it isn't trying to save server side.
