The Save button serves two purposes: 1) it displays the current number of changes pending to be saved, and 2) when clicked, it saves all the current changes you have made.

|}


As you make changes, the counter in the Save button increases. The number in the icon is shown to red as a warning that many unsaved changes may be difficult to save if there is a single error among the changes. (This counter is the number of changes you've made which can be undone, NOT the number of edits you get credit for.)
== Cities & Towns ==


When the button is clicked (or the shortcut key used), the editor saves all of the current changes you have made. This process is a little more complex than this sounds, but that is what it does. In order to save properly, your browser receives messages back from the Waze server in the event of any errors. If there is an error when saving, the editor will try to give you a detailed error message and a suggestion to fix it. The map view will typically try to show the error area highlighted in a bright circle.

''Once the save operation completes successfully, you cannot Undo previous changes with the Undo button.''
== Places (Landmarks) ==
Please do not forget that a recent update to WME has '''enabled the Address properties for Landmarks''' (City, State & Country) and ensure this information is filled out & correct. See '''[[Places]]''' in the Wiki for information.


====Undo Button====
[[File:wme_button_undo.png|left]] Shortcut key: {{key press|Ctrl|Z}}
{{clear}}
The Undo button will undo '''unsaved''' successive previous changes with each click.


{{mbox|type=important|text=IMPORTANT: Once the Save button is clicked and the save operation is complete, the Undo button has no affect on previous changes.}}
=== State Parks ===


A change can be deleting a geometry node from a segment or renaming a landmark. It can also be a change to multiple objects at once. For example, if you select 25 street segments at once and change them from one-way to 2-way, that is a single change. Therefore, one click on Undo will undo that change for all 25 segments.
Please see the '''[[Places]]''' Wiki page for information on how to map these. As always, please do not map walking trails, etc. through the park.
{{clear}}


====Redo Button====
If there are errors in the chart below please refer to the original source at [http://dnr.state.il.us/lands/landmgt/parks/ IL DNR].

[[File:wme_layers_expanded.png|right|border]][[File:layers.png]] Hover or click to show the layers available for display on the main map. When the box next to the layer name is checked, then that layer is active and being displayed. There is a default [[Keyboard shortcuts|shortcut key]] defined for each layer, and to make it easy to remember, with two exceptions: The shortcut is {{key press|shift|{{color|X|lightgray}}}} (first letter of the layer name). The two exceptions are the satellite/aerial imagery, which uses the letter {{key press|<code>I</code>}} as the shortcut key for '''I'''magery, and Places which uses the letter {{key press|L}} because it was previously called '''L'''andmarks.

===== Refresh or Reload Layers =====
| [https://www.waze.com/editor/?zoom=3&lat=41.31691&lon=-89.00515&env=usa&layers=485 Starved Rock]
[[File:Reload-layers.png|border]] The small curved arrow at the top right of the Layers list will reload all layers (excluding Satellite Imagery, Cities, and GPS layers) in the current view without reloading the whole page. This is a great way to see changes recently made by another editor in the area without losing the Chat history.
|}
 
===== Reorder =====
[[File:Reorder-Layers.png|left|border]]The six small dots to the left of a layer selector box is a drag handle which enables those layers to be reordered changing the visibility of one layer above another. Only a few layers can be reordered. PLEASE NOTE: The layer order is reversed so layers at the bottom of the list appear above layers higher up in the list. Therefore Satellite Imagery will always appear below all other layers.
{{clear}}
 
===== Satellite Imagery =====
[[File:Aerial_skinny.png|260px]] Shortcut key: {{key press|Shift|<code>I</code>}}
 
Waze uses aerial and satellite photography provided by Google.
{{clear}}
 
===== Cities =====
[[File:cities_skinny.png|260px]] Shortcut key: {{key press|shift|C}}
 
City boundaries as defined by segments assigned to that city are shown in different colors. This layer is helpful in finding segments which are set to the wrong city. Until an area is heavily edited an updated, some city boundaries are likely to be overlapping or appear to be unassociated with any segments.
 
Changing the name of the city for a road is done through the WME interface documented in [[Map Editor Interface and Controls#Segment Edit Detail|segment edit detail]]. If after fixing the city names you still have incorrect city boundaries, review the article on [[Smudged city#Updating the city layer|Updating the city layer]].
{{clear}}
 
===== Roads =====
[[File:Road_segments_skinny.png|260px]] Shortcut key: {{key press|Shift|R}}
 
Roads are all of the streets, alleys, highways, and freeways which make up the drivable street system in Waze. Depending on the [[#Zoom Control|zoom level]], some street types are not displayed so that the map is not too cluttered.
{{clear}}
 
===== GPS points =====
[[File:Gps_tracks_straight_skinny.png|260px]] Shortcut key: {{key press|Shift|G}}


This layer will show tracks from Waze users as they drive with Waze running. Waze records and plots the GPS coordinate of drivers. This layer is useful for relatively accurate placement of new or moved roads when aerial photography is not yet updated. GPS points appear in the map editor as colored arrows. The direction of travel for a GPS point determine its color, so that all drivers going the same direction will show their points in the same color. This makes it easier to determine errant GPS points, or where a road on the map doesn't follow the actual path of vehicles.
=== Bridges ===
{{clear}}
Please see the '''[[Places]]''' Wiki page for information on how to map these.


===== Area Managers =====

[[File:Wme3 area managers layer skinny.png|260px]] Shortcut key: {{key press|Shift|A}}
|- align="center"
 
! scope="col" width="150pt" bgcolor="#E0CEF2"|Bridge Name
The Area Managers layer shows overlapping colored, named rectangles. These areas represent the areas those users have Area Manager permissions.

[[Places]] are also known as POIs (Points of Interest). These can really be just about anything, but tend to be things like parks, gas stations, cemeteries, transit stations, etc. There are two types of Places: Area and Point. Point Places are for most small business, shops, etc. Area Places are for large stores, malls, parks, etc.
 
See [[Places]] for more information on this topic.
{{clear}}
 
===== (Speed) Cameras =====
[[File:camera2false.png]] [[File:camera2true.png]] [[File:camera4false.png]] [[File:camera4true.png]] Shortcut key: {{key press|Shift|S}}
 
Speed cameras, red-light cameras and dummy cameras are shown on this layer. Drivers report camera location and type, and a map editor is required to confirm the existence of the camera, precise location and direction the camera is point before it will appear on the client. Confirmed cameras will pop up a visual and audible alert in the Waze app when approaching a speed or red light camera.
 
See [[Cameras]] for more information.
{{clear}}
 
===== Map Problems =====
[[File:Problem_pin_open-low.png|left]][[File:Problem_pin_open-med.png]] [[File:Problem_pin_open-high.png]] [[File:Problem_pin_not-identified.png]] Shortcut key: '''no default'''
{{clear}}
The Waze servers are constantly analyzing driver's GPS tracks to determine when there might be a problem with the map and uses the Problems layer to alert the editors. Some types of problems tracked are missing roads, incorrect turns allowed at intersection, wrong direction of road.
 
You can toggle visibility of closed Map Problems by using the "Show/Hide closed" link next to the Map Problems text.
 
See [[Map Problems in Waze Map Editor|Map problems]] for more information.
{{clear}}
 
===== Update Requests =====
[[File:Request_pin_open-low.png|left]][[File:Request_pin_open_conversation-med.png]] [[File:Request_pin_open-high.png]][[File:Request_pin_solved_conversation.png]] Shortcut key: {{key press|Shift|U}}
{{clear}}
These are user-submitted map issues while on the road or from LiveMap. This marker shows the location the user reported the issue from. The user's driven route for a distance before and after the reported location will be shown in bright green. If Waze was in navigation mode at the time of the report, the requested route for a distance before and after the reported location will be shown in purple, with markers along the route with the turn direction given to the user.
 
You can toggle visibility of closed Update Requests by using the "Show/Hide closed" link next to the Update Requests text.
 
See [[Update Requests in Waze Map Editor|Update requests]] for more information.
{{clear}}
 
===== Place updates =====
<div style="float:left;">[[File:wme_placemarker_new.png]] [[File:wme_placemarker_new_photo.png]] [[File:wme_placemarker_updated_details.png]] [[File:wme_placemarker_flagged.png]]
<br/>[[File:PalePinkBalloon.png]][[File:PalePurpleBalloon.png]][[File:PurpleBalloon.png]][[File:GreenBalloon.png]]</div>
Shortcut key: {{key press|Shift|P}}
 
The Place Updates layer shows Place Update Requests (PURs) submitted by drivers and beginning editors. When an untrusted driver or editor creates a new place or makes changes to an existing place, a Place Update Request is created. Editors of rank 2 or higher decide whether to accept each request. The most recent requests are a pale pink. Older requests are darker. Accepted but not-yet-saved requests are green.
 
See [[Places#Place Updates (Moderation)|Place Updates (Moderation)]] for more detail.
{{clear}}
 
===== Editable areas =====
[[File:Editable_area_skinny.png|260px]] Shortcut key: {{key press|Shift|E}}
{{clear}}
Where you can edit is determined primarily by where you have driven. [[Editing rank|Edit rights]] are initially granted within a [[Editing_rank#Rank_comparisons|one-mile radius]] of where you have driven with Waze running. Your editable area is shown in lighter-colored areas surrounded by a black border. Users who are Area Managers will also see their managed areas in a colored highlighted area.
See [[Waze Map Editor#Editable Area|Editable area]] for more information.
{{clear}}
 
===== Live Users =====
[[File:wme_live_wazer.png|left]] Shortcut key: {{key press|Shift|V}}
{{clear}}
The Live Users layer will display other map editors with the icon above. Editors' locations are shown in real-time.
{{clear}}
=====Road Closures=====
<div style="float:left; margin-right: 1ex; margin-bottom: 1ex;">[[File:Closure.PNG]] [[File:Closure_Gray_TwoWay.png ]]</div>The Road Closures layer displays a closure symbol and direction when a closure has been placed, using either a WME Closure or the client's Report > Closure feature. A red circle indicates a currently active closure. A gray circle indicates either a scheduled, but not currently active, WME closure or an app-submitted closure. Black arrows show the closure direction(s).
 
===Left Pane===
 
At the left side of the window, below your username, is an area which is both informational and functional. Depending on whether an object is selected, the type of object and how many, different tabs will be available which allow you to view and edit details.
 
====Left Pane with No object selected -- tabs====
{| style="float:right"
| [[File:wme31 hey username.jpg|left]]
|-
| [[File:WME_Tabs.png‎|left]]
|}
|}


When no objects are selected on the map, the Tabs Area displays user information. The top section greets you by name and is always visible regardless of what is showing or displayed on the map. Map Problems and Update Requests are not considered map objects, so the tabs below your name will display when a Map Problem or Update Request is selected.
== Time-Based Turn Restrictions ==
 
=====Me Tab=====
 
[[File:Wazer-with-premission.png]][[File:permission_levels.png]]
 
The '''Me''' tab displays your [[Your Rank and Points|map editing permission level and current points]] for the [[Banks of Servers|server]] on which you are editing (North America or World).
 
A Wazer with a hard hat displays if you have editing permissions. To the right of that icon will be a highlighted cone with a number. This number is your [[Your_Rank_and_Points#Map_editing_rank|editing rank]]. Below those graphics is a sentence about your editing rank and permissions.
 
Below this information is a graphic inviting you to view the introductory editing videos provided by the Waze team.
 
=====Drives Tab=====
[[File:DrivesTab2.png|right|border|255px]]
<!-- Copied from FAQ; consider creating a transcludable subpage for both locations -->Drives are journeys or routes that you have driven with the Waze client running. While you drive, Waze monitors your journey (recording details like location, time, speed) and transfers this information to the [[Servers]]. This data is used to validate the existing map (roads, turns, directions) and to learn average journey times. Other Waze users and [[Area Manager]]s can also view the anonymous GPS tracks of many users when editing the map in the [[Waze Map Editor]]. This helps with map accuracy.
 
[[File:DriveRoute.png|left|border|220px]]
Clicking on one of the five visible entries will center the map along that route and will zoom out to try and fit your entire route on the screen. Routes over about 20 miles / 30 kilometers will usually not fit on the map display all at once due to scale limitations. Use the mouse or arrow keys to pan around on the map. Parts of the route that display in red are not currently paved roads. Consider [[Map_Editor_Interface_and_Controls#Zoom_Control|zooming]] into that area to determine if a road should be added.
 
Select the highlighted numbers at the bottom of the tab window to select older routes in date order.
 
<!-- Copied from FAQ; consider creating a transcludable subpage for both locations -->Drives are typically processed and available for viewing in the Waze Map Editor within an hour of completing the drive. For most short drives such as commutes between home and work (under about 35 miles / 50 kilometers), you will likely find them in the editor in under 15 minutes. If the servers are bogged down, or if your drive is significantly longer (over 100 miles / 150 kilometers), these drives may take up to a week to appear. If you don't see your drive after seven (7) days, open a ticket from the [[Support]] page, Quick Help box. Use the Email link and fill out the form and submit.
{{clear}}
 
=====Areas Tab=====
 
This shows the entire [[editable area]] -- the area in which you can perform edits. Click on your editable area.  The view will be centered on the editable area. If your editable area is spread out, in several sections, it may be centered between areas you can edit.
 
=====Settings Tab=====
[[File:Just tabs settings.png|thumbnail|329px]]<small>This feature was added {{As of|January 2015|lc=y}}</small><br/>
To access user-preference settings in WME, click the "Settings" tab in the left pane. Options include:
* '''Draw new roads as two-way''' - determines whether any new road segments you draw start as two-way or one-way
* '''Draw new roads with all turns allowed''' - when new roads are drawn with a connection to a junction, the junction can have all "turns" to or from the new segment allowed or disallowed
*'''Select only on empty selection''' - affects editor behavior when you select an object (road segment, junction, or place) when there is already an object(s) selected
** If not checked, then clicking on an object will automatically deselect any other objects already selected. This may cause accidental deselection
** If checked, you are prevented from selecting a new object if there anything is already selected. Note that multi-select mode allows you to select additional segments when segment(s) are already selected; use the {{key press|ctrl}} key for momentary multi-select, or press the {{key press|M}} keyboard shortcut to toggle multi-select mode on/off. Also note that clicking an empty spot can still cause deselection.
*'''Enable fullscreen mode''' - when checked, more screen space is given to the map (removes the menu header from the top of the page). Keyboard shortcut {{key press|Shift|F}} toggles this setting.
*'''Units''' - Choose between Imperial (feet/miles) or Metric (meters/kilometers)

</imagemap>The area above the tabs will show how many segments are selected, and a link to "Select Entire Street". The example graphic to the right shows what the Tabs Area looks like when multiple segments are selected.
 
=====Select Entire Street=====
When you click the link "Select Entire Street," or use the keyboard shortcut {{key press|Ctrl|A}} the editor will select all segments connected to the current segment with the same primary name, city, state, and country information. It will also select some segments outside the current visible area. The "Select Entire Street" link and the multiple segment ID numbers are highlighted in yellow in the image to the right.
{{Clear}}
 
=====Address Box=====
When you click on the Pencil button, or tap shortcut key {{key press|E}}, the address box displays more detail information and allows you to make changes to the country, state (US only), city and segment name. Next is where you can add or remove any alternate street name information. An alternate name, technically referred to as a "linked street," can be used for address searches, while primary name is used in navigation instructions.
 
Be sure to review the [[Road names/USA|naming convention used in your area]] before changing names.
 
If you run into an extreme case where you need to rename the city name on a large number of streets. Review the article [[Smudged city]]. The end of the article includes a link to a special form for converting a mass number of segments using the help of Waze staff in the database.
 
=====General Tab=====
On this tab, you can modify the road type, direction, speed limits, elevation, lock, and special properties "toll road" and "tunnel". Further down past a separator line are more general details about the segment(s) which is/are selected.
 
Details on these tab settings can be found under [[Creating and editing road segments#Road Properties|Road Properties]]
 
======Add Restrictions======
When you click the button titled '''Add restrictions''', or use the keyboard shortcut {{key press|T}}, WME enters the [[Scheduled Restrictions]] editing interface
 
<u>TAKE NOTICE:</u>
*The '''Add restrictions''' button appears when there is one or more segments selected.
*If there are restrictions which already exist on any selected segment, the button name changes to '''Edit restrictions'''.
{{clear}}
 
======Edit House Numbers======
When you click the button titled '''Edit House Numbers''', or use the keyboard shortcut {{key press|H}}, WME enters the [[House Numbers in WME|House Number editing interface]].
 
<u>TAKE NOTICE:</u>
*The '''Edit House Numbers''' button appears when there is only one segment selected.
*The '''Edit House Numbers''' button isn't available to click when there are changes which need to be saved. The message, "Save your changes to edit house numbers" appears below the button.


=====Closure Tab=====
Currently, the Waze Map Editor does support time-based turn restrictions. The list below is used to keep track of time-based turn restrictions in school zones so they can be edited each year till we have the ability to set reoccurring dates. You can edit turn restrictions by following the '''[[Scheduled Restrictions]]''' Wiki page.
On this tab, senior editors can enable closures in real time. For more information, read the [[Closures#WME_closure_feature|WME Closure Feature]] page.


====Left Pane when a Camera is selected====

====Street View====
[[File:Wme sv lens blue.gif]]
<u>To Activate Street View</u>, drag the blue lens icon from under the zoom control to the point where you want to see the street view.
As you drag the lens around the map, it will change colors to indicate the presence of street view images:

*[[File:waze_sv_viewavail.gif]] Street View is available here
[[File:Wme streetview directional arrow.gif|right]]Drop the lens. The map display shrinks by half to make room for the street view pane on the right. The lens has an arrow to show which way street view is pointing.
To spin and and zoom the image, use the pan and  zoom controls in the Street view pane, or drag the pane around with the mouse and use the scroll wheel to zoom.  To change the street view position, use the arrows on the street in street view, or drag the lens by its small white handle.
All editing operations are still available in the map display pane, but the space for editing is smaller.  If you use the house number editor, it  will cover some of the street view controls; use mouse and keyboard shortcuts.

* One way is to select the first segment, then use {{key press|ctrl|click}}  (MAC users:{{Key press|command|click}}) to select additional segments.
* A second way is to use multi-select mode.  Use the [[Keyboard shortcuts|shortcut key]] {{Key press|m}} to enter multi-select mode.  {{Key press|Click}} each segment to add or subtract it from the current segment grouping.  To exit multi-select mode, press {{Key press|m}} again.
* To select all segments between two other segments, first select a segment, then use {{key press|alt|click}} (Linux users:{{Key press|ctrl|alt|click}}) to select a second segment. The editor will add to the selection group the segments in-between the first and second segments, based mostly on the street name, but also on simple straight lines.
* To select all segments within a box use {{key press|ctrl|shift|click}} (MAC users:{{Key press|command|shift|click}}) and then drag the cursor while holding the mouse button to form a box. When the mouse button is released, all the segments in the box are selected.
* Segments having the same naming properties can be selected using the "Select entire street" function. See the description in the [[Map_Editor_Interface_and_Controls#Left_Pane_with_segment.28s.29_selected|Left Pane with segment(s) selected]] section for more information.
===Geometry===
Segments and area places have '''geometry''', which means '''shape'''.  You change the geometry by adding, deleting, or moving '''geometry nodes'''.
* to create a new geometry node, select the object. Hover the mouse pointer over the object to show the geometry nodes in white.  Between the nodes, there will be a smaller point where a new geometry node can be created.  Click and drag this point to create a geometry node.
* to delete a geometry node, select the object. Hover the mouse pointer over the object to display the geometry nodes.  Press and hold {{key press|d}} and hover over the geometry node to be deleted.
===Moving objects===
;point place
:[[#Selecting single objects|select]] the point place, then click and drag to the new position and save.There is a limit on how far a place may be moved before saving. To move a place farther, make several short moves.
;area place (entire area)
:select the area. Click and drag the area place move handle to move the area without changing its shape.
;segment nodes (end or geometry)
:select the segment.  Hover the pointer over the segment to display the geometry node.  Click and drag either end node or any of the geometry nodes to move the ends or change the shape.
;area place geometry node
:select the area.  Hover over the area to display the geometry nodes. Click and drag a geometry node to change the shape of the area.
;junction node
:select just the junction where two or more segments are connected.  Click and drag the junction node.  Any segment junction nodes connected to the junction will remain connected to the junction. This will change the shape of the segments.
;junction node and some connected segments
:multi-select several segments that connect to the same junction node. Click and drag the junction node. Only the selected segments will be dragged with the junction node.  Any unselected segments will be disconnected from the node.
===Joining segments===
When just two segments meet at one junction node, they can be joined into one segment. But only if they have identical information in the left pane. The resulting segment will have a new segment ID. There are three ways to do this:
* [[File:wme_button_delete.png|20px]] Select the junction node only and use the trash can icon.
* [[Image:Bridge_idle.png|20px]] Select the two segments and [[#Bridge_creator|bridge]] them. This will raise the elevation by 1.
===Junction Arrows===
{{Anchor|Turn restrictions}}Select a segment to see all the turns leading '''out of ''' that segment, including u-turns.
* [[File:Arrow Green-2.png|20px]] [[File:Wme u-turn allowed.png]] Green arrows are for allowed turns. [[File:Arrow Red-2.png|20px]] [[File:Wme u-turn restricted.png]] Red arrows (with "-" sign) are for forbidden turns.  Click on the arrow to switch it from allowed to forbidden.
* [[File:Arrow Red-2-question2.png|20px]]Unconfirmed or "soft" turns also have a small question mark.  Click the arrow to confirm the turn.
* [[File:Wme u-turn allowed hover clock.png]] Hover over the arrow to see a clock.  Click on the clock to edit time based turn restrictions
* [[File:Restriction arrow yellow mouseover.gif|20px]] [[File:Wme u-turn scheduled.png]]A yellow arrow means a time based turn restriction has already been applied.
===Additional map controls===
;[[Image:Node_idle.png]]  {{anchor|Junction_creator}}junction creator -- creates a junction where segments merely cross
:Where two segments cross each other one time at the same elevation, but are not connected to each other, select the two segments at the same time. The junction creator icon will appear. Click this icon to create a junction.  The two segments will be cut into four segments, all connected to the new junction.
;[[Image:Bridge_idle.png]] {{anchor|Bridge_creator}}bridge creator -- creates a "bridge" from a four-way intersection.
:At any junction, select two segments with identical information. The bridge creator icon will appear. Clicking the icon will join the two selected segments into a single segment, and increase the elevation of the new segment to one more than the max elevation of the two segments which were joined. If you apply the bridge creator to a 4-segment junction, it will also join the two unselected segments, if possible.
==Permission==
There are several types of permission. For a more detailed discussion, please see [[editing permissions]].
;Editing area permission
:You can only edit objects within your editing area -- this includes segments, junctions, places. This also includes closing map problems and Update Requests. Your Editing area includes the area you gain by driving as well as any managed areas you have been granted as an area manager or map raid participant.
;Lock level permission
:Segments and places can be locked. You can only edit these objects if they have a lock level less than or equal to your editor rank. You can only set turn arrows is both segments involved have a lock level less than or equal to your editor rank.  Even if a junction has a segment connected to it locked above your editing rank, you can add or remove any segment you can edit at that junction. You can set the lock level anywhere between 1 and your editor rank on any segment or place you can edit.
;Staff place locks
:Sometimes, Waze staff lock places, often in preparation for an ad campaign. The effect is as if the place is locked above the rank of all other wazers, but the lock is not visible in the Waze map editor.
;Trusted place editor status
:Rank 1 editors need approval from a rank 2 or higher editor even on all places, even if they are locked at level 1. After 10 place approvals, they become trusted editors and their places no longer need approvals. Rank 2 and higher editors never need approval for edits to places locked at or below their rank.


;Closures permission
__FORCETOC__
:Editors receive permission to add and edit Real Time Closures in two ways.
:# '''Rank''' -- upon achieving minimum RTC rank (5 in most countries), editors can add and edit Real Time Closures on any segment within their editable areas, on any segment that is not locked above their rank. 
:# '''RTC areas'''{{anchor|RTC area}} -- In addition, editors may be granted RTC areas.  Within these areas, editors can add and edit Real Time Closures on any segments, no matter the lock level.


;Closure locking
:A segment that has a closure cannot be edited until the closure has been removed from the segment. So if a segment has lock level of 1, but a current closure, then it will require an editor with Real Time Closure permission for that segment to alter the closure so that a change can be made to the segment. In most countries, only rank 5 and higher editors can edit closures.

Revision as of 13:34, 28 August 2016

Want to help out with the map in Illinois? Below is a list of projects that need to be done. Please see Map Editing & Editing Best Practices for a starting point on how to edit the map.

When you are done, please update the info & turn the background gray. If you need help see How to edit wiki pages. Sounds scary but it's easy just watch this short video.

Time-Based Turn Restrictions

Currently, the Waze Map Editor does support time-based turn restrictions. The list below is used to keep track of time-based turn restrictions in school zones so they can be edited each year till we have the ability to set reoccurring dates. You can edit turn restrictions by following the Scheduled Restrictions Wiki page.
