I don't know if it is something that changed in Validator or an incorrect setting on my end, but it is annoying. Can someone help to get rid of this please?

Thank you!
The Validator version hasn't incremented from early November. I'd venture a guess that WME changed in such a way that Validator appears functional again, but it doesn't look like it was specifically updated to be compatible with recent WME versions. That could explain why the disclaimer keeps popping up and perhaps other functionality may not be solid.

You should read the discussion above, but Validator is no more. Check out the new replacement, WME Magic.

Text bubble reads "Click 'Report' to review map issues" but there is no button named "Report" that I can see. There is a "Show report" button though.

Example where reverse connection does not appear to be detected: https://www.waze.com/editor/?zoom=6&lat ... s=33330449. All three 2-way segments have an allowed connection reverse into the 1-way segment, but WMEV doesn't catch it.

Suggestions: If you can have only one active "report" then I would suggest a single icon to run the report and then clear the report. The two buttons which look like "Play" and "Trash" are ok, but a single button which switches makes more sense. Also, I was a bit wary about clicking the Trash icon because the possibility of it meaning "delete something from the Waze map" was present in my mind. The icon currently matches the Waze delete icon, so at least that should change.

Request: Add detection of segments which share the same two endpoints: https://www.waze.com/editor/?zoom=6&lat ... 4,61233176

This is known to cause routing errors and incorrect start-point display issues in the app. Also can cause the "requested route" information for Update Requests to show the wrong segment.

I agree. WMEV should not give this guidance. And WMEV links to https://www.waze.com/wiki/Fixing_%22smudged%22_cities which doesn't say anything about No Name for freeway segments.
