Let's Start Again!

Dear All
I am astonished and also disappointed to see that every time someone take action to find solution , everybody complain…not to be involved (consulted!)

I fully agree and support what done by medim84 to find solutions on road editing (it could be fine tuned if needed) and mainly I am happy because he took the initiative TO DO IT !

Since April I asked to find a solution but no one reacted.
Why?
Because it’s much more easy to criticize than try to build up something for The Community.

It’s too easy to talk about Community without getting involved………in order to always be free to criticize.

That’s too easy !!!

So, following the good job done in BiH by medim84, I believe that’s is the time to implement the same system in Croatia . Kiki-rovinj will do few local adjustments and than PLEASE follow the Editing Instructions.
If someone want ho cooperate (in a positive way) is absolutely welcome, but please be proactive and not polemic !

Medim84 contacted us and he has been proactive, asked information, made suggestions and than came out with, what I believe, is a good solution….meanwhile it seems other people just criticized.

It is so easy to create editing rules, as done by all Waze Community that they continue to update it; here nothing !!

Waze improved in a dramatic way : WME changed drastically. Last version has so many novelties and all Communities are preparing new instructions (in these cases mainly not related to each country).
I have hardly seen any interest in this Community and ,only tanks to the action of kiki-rovinj and medim84 , something has been done………otherwise nothing would happen !

We are all volunteers here at Waze, and the fact someone of us become Country Administrator with an increase of job load, meas it has been considered reliable partners by Waze

Please do not argue again everything has to be discussed by all editors together…

Croatia for instance has no more than 80 active editors…it would have been enough for Local Champ Group (already existing) to take the matter in his hand and solve it in few months…but something seems to block any action.

I personally received from abroad request of explanations about some local actions…: that put us in the condition to monitor the situation and propose to Waze some solutions , if needed.

In this very moment is not my intention to act in such a way but Kiki-rovinj and me, we are fully entitled to take any action to develop and/or protect the Map.

I invite all of you to cooperate and propose/find solutions.

I believe you do not have manuals keeping clear instructions :

  • how to edit roads (available in BiH)
  • how to manage soft turns, hard turns, U turns (also according to different editing levels permissions)
  • Problems in TTS pronunciation
  • editing name instructions to solve TTS problem
  • list of extensions (if needed) for TTS (every country has his own)
  • edit round about depending on what you want the TTS to say
  • instructions for editing Railroads (or related turnaround)
  • editing landmark instructions

These are just few of the thing that Local Champs should establish/build up

I thing it’s now time to stop useless discussions and start building up The LocalCommunity ,as per Waze Scheme

As Administrator , I can give you all the help you need : the only think I need is you to cooperate.

Are not my ideas that you have to carry on (I can make some proposals based on my acknowledge an my experience )…they can only be a starting point (see BiH)

The only important thing is to really start working together !

Just to start this conversation…
I am all for implementing BiH road editing instructions, I think it suits us quite well.
Also, I have a major issue with locking everything to high level. I just don’t see any point in making it hard for other people to contribute, lvl 5 locking means that basically only a few people are able to edit. Isn’t there already Waze rule for Railroads?
I am not familiar with TTS problems…

Tell me what you need and i will let you know.
if a downgrade is needed tell me.

I’m sending unlocking request to Kiki, I’m just saying that if something is to be locked it shouldn’t be lvl 5, 3 or 4 is more than enough.
I not familiar with TTS problems, do you have any links to that?
And just to clarify my stance on road editing
Autoceste A - freeway
Državne ceste D - Minor Highway (excluding some mayor roads like D1 to be left major highway)
Županijske Ž - Primary
and everything else Street
Also, maybe a bit offtopic, Hungary apears to be the only country with street markings, how did they get that?

This will be implemented as soon as it is ready.

Ciao vjekooo, problem sa level je vezan za stari editor kad se nije moglo odabirati nivo nego je bio vezan za level pojedinog usera.
Dobro da si primijetio taj problem i gledati ćemo da se ceste više ne zaključavaju na takav način nego se moramo dogovoriti za neku alternativu.
Pozdrav svima.

Ciao vjekooo, the problem with the level is linked to the old editor when he could pick the level but was tied to a particular level Usera.
Good thing you noticed this problem and we will watch the road is no longer locked in such a way but we have to arrange for an alternative.
Hello everyone.
