IGN Map editors are paid by Waze to edit parts of the North America and World maps. They generally focus on areas where major content is missing, there was no base map import for that country, or significant problems are occurring with the map and no local editors are available.  
* Waze is rongly committed to supporting the different countries and languages of the world but depends on your help.
 
* The Waze client app has over 1000 words and phrases to be translated into languages used around the world. Some are nearly finished. Some are halfway done. Some of them haven't even started! If you read and write more than one language, you can help [[Translate waze (client text) to your local language| help with the translation]]. Even one phrase helps - you don't have to do it all!
In the past, IGN editors were more active in the map, but there were situations where some IGN editors were not knowledgeable about particular areas. Some non-IGN editors would argue their presence may have made the situation worse. In North America the presence of IGN editors in the map are much less common now. They tend to focus on the World map in newly added countries with few local editors.
* This Wiki is used by people from countries around the world, speaking different languages. Maybe you'd like to help add and improve [[pages specific to a country and language]]
 
When an automated [[Map_Problems_in_Waze_Map_Editor|map problem]] is reported and an editor marks it as "not identified", eventually Waze will consider sending IGN editors to that location to make changes to fix the problem. This is one reason why "not identified" is not recommended for automated map problems.
