WME Events Editor Guide:
== Statewide Maps==
Major Traffic Events, or MTEs are large-scale events that have associated road closures. MTEs can be sport events (marathons, triathlons, etc), festivals, parades, significant construction works (ex: closure of the Golden Gate Bridge), VIP visits, etc. Reporting MTEs enables better communication by alerting your local community about closures and congestion due to relevant events nearby.  
Some data sources are OK to use as reference. Some data have copyright/license agreements that prevents us from using them.
If a road closure is part of a larger event, it can now be added to the WME through the Events tool in the beta WME.

In this first phase of the tool, you will be able to create events and upload closures through the WME, but automatic push message and website creation will still be turned off. If you have any big events that you added through the WME but want a push for, please email waze-closures@google.com with a permalink to the area and the event name and we will consider it.

To create event closures:
[[Category:USA]] [[Category:Pennsylvania]]
*IMPORTANT* You must be in default mode to add closures to an event. This will change in later product phases, but for now, it is the only way to add them. You can only create and edit events in events mode. All adding/editing/manipulating of other features must be in default mode.
 
1. Create closures as you normally would, but instead of leaving the event as “none”, you should see your event name in the drop down menu.
2. Save your closures . They will now be visible on the closures tab of the event in the event editor.
3. Once the closures are attached to the event, go back to the event in event mode and mark it “ready for review”. Save!
 
Once your event is marked as “ready for review”, somebody from the Waze closures team will review the event and decide whether to send a push message for it.
Once this tool is fully operational, the community will have all permissions to self manage this process.
