You can see your own editing rank from the Waze Map Editor (WME) on the top left of the screen. Your rank appears as a series of cones with a number. Also note that currently the segments you edit on the map will show your rank using the older rank number system in place before January 2012. In the WME when you select a segment, the properties drawer will show you the name of the editor who created and last modified the segment. The number in parenthesis is the older rank system scale.

If your rank is lower than what it should be (based on the criteria below), please contact support to have the team look into the situation. Currently moving from one rank to the next higher rank is not automatic and needs assistance from Waze support.
