The Hi, Welcome and Introduction space!
It has just occurred to me that we do not have anywhere for the new editor, or even an existing one, to introduce themselves to the community.
We want to grow the UK editing community and it is important that we all feel part of the same team and both work well together and also get to know each other. While we have the annual meetup, which some of you will have attended, and this is a great way to meet your fellow editors and have a chance to chat in person, we also need to have a space to introduce ourselves and get to know a bit about each other.
Here is that space!
That said, I thought I would kick this off with a bit about me.
For those who do not know me, my name (unsurprisingly) is Ian and I live in the bottom eastern corner of Essex. I retired from working in R&D for a medical equipment manufacturer 8 years ago and shortly after that found Waze. I have now been editing almost daily since then. After far more hours working on Waze than I care to try and work out I have reached a fairly senior position within the editing community, with still a lot to learn. The more you get involved, the more you find there is in map editing with Waze.
I am also the UK Mentor, trying to help and encourage all new and potential users of Waze to get involved in the editing and hopefully join and become a regular part of the editing community.
Now over to you, any new or existing editor who would like to introduce yourself, go for it.
