Beginning Editors

Where To Start

Specifically regarding how roads are named, and text-to-speech functionality within the Waze Map Editor and client application.
It is recommended that one get oriented with the forum, as it is a large source of information for editors of all levels of experience.

NOTE: You can see your "recent editing activities": "//www.waze.com/user/editor/" & "editor name" in your browser (e.g. https://www.waze.com/user/editor/ramblinwreck_81)


Alternatively, you can click on the editor's hyperlink after selecting a segment edited by that editor.

How what do in the Waze Map Editor shows up in the client app, and how we get it there.
Includes discussion on median segment names.
Also useful with update requests.

Discussions

Read these forum instructions before requesting a road to be unlocked in the Waze forum.

Forms

Where editors of all rank and experience within the Southeast Region can communicate, share tips and ask for advice.
Other regions (South Atlantic and South Central, for example) have channels where we can communicate with other editors who do not edit primarily within the Southeast Region."
This form can be used to report advertising place points that are incorrectly placed (among other things).

Intermediate Editors

Editing Practices

Includes discussion on when to divide and un-divide roads.
Includes functional classification table and segment types.

Forms

Before loading scripts, consult with a senior editor on their application. It is usually best to not load multiple new scripts at the same time. Instead, learn how one functions before going to the next. Note that you are responsible for all your edits. Whether a script identified and suggested the edit or not is irrelevant. Improper use of any script - may lead to demotion or loss of editing privileges.
