==Starters Summary==
You're new to Waze map editting and like to help. Great, you're most valuable with your local knowledge! This page lists the possibilities for a starting map editor (level '''1'''). But - very important - please read first the [[Quick start guide]] and keep the [[KISS]] principles in mind, otherwise you could end up by other editors correcting your work. 
 
Beginners are not allowed to do all changes, more important roads and other map elements are locked on certain levels to protect the map for unwanted changes. More on locks, see the [[Locks]] page. If you want to change an explicitly locked road or place, place ask in the [[Slack]] editing channel for assistance. There are always people glad to help. Example of a starters limit: f.i. a maximum of 30 street names per day may be changed by a '''L1'''.

When working in the [[Waze Map Editor]] (WME) please keep all options checked to be sure you don't miss anything. Click [[File:Layers-menu-icon.png]]. And keep an eye on [[Slack]] so other editors can reach you. 
 
Are wondering about all these abbreviations? Check the [[Abbreviations|Abbreviations used in Waze]] page. 
 

===Points of interest===
Check the already created [[Places]] in your neighboorhood via de [[Waze Map Editor|WME]] with
Adding [[Places]], keep in mind that the first 10 submitted place proposals need to be confirmed by another editor. If you're waiting for approval you can submit your confirmation request in one of the editing channels of [[Slack]].
For adding an external provider you must have at least level 2. 
 
Please add missing Gas stations, Hospitals, Libraries, Police stations, Schools and other points of interest that are important as destination for Waze drivers. If the most important other POI's are already entered you could also look at [[Charging Station Place|charging stations]].
 
Update the details of already existing places. Depending on the [[Place categories|place category]] more or less details can be filled in. Most places have Auto lock (1) and can be updated by you. If you want to change something of a place that is explicitly locked, please ask somebody to help you. 
* All kinds of shops, organizations: check website, telephone number, opening hours. 
 

Some places like [[Parking Lot Place]] are protected by a specific level lock and cannot be updated (without assistance) yet. 
Linking a place to a Google place isn't allowed yet for a '''L1''' editor.

===Roads===
'''New streets''' 
If there are in your neighboorhood new developments, new houses build, new streets, you could make a start with mapping them. A nice way of working is to drive first through all the new streets and use your drive information ([[Waze_Map_Editor#Drives|WME Drives tab]]) as aid for the new roads to draw. You can even use the [[Waze app|app]] pave function while driving around and use this track as base for your editing. 

Roads in new housing estates are used by the builders, new residents, emergency services. If they are not paved yet but drivable you can map them already: you can start with [[Off-road]] roads. Change the [[Road types|roadtype]] when the road get its definitive paving. 

Other new roads should be mapped only just one or two weeks before they become available for the public traffic. So speed information pollution is minimized by the movements of constructors. 

Possibly you have to ask for assistance when connecting a new street to a locked (primary) street. 
 
'''Updating streets''' 
Some streets are not yet fully defined, in other streets new developments are going on. It is important to keep the information up-to-date.
* Add missing [[Speed limit|speed limits]], or correct changed speed limits. Nice tool for this sort of work is the [[WME Toolbox|Toolbox]]
* Add missing [[house numbers]], or if old houses are replaced with something else, correct earlier added house numbers. Use also for this type of work the [[WME Toolbox|Toolbox]].
* Sometime a street changes from 2-way to one-way vice versa.
* Connect [[Walking trail|walking trails]] and [[Pedestrian Boardwalk|pedestrian boardwalks]] to the regular streets if not already done so. 
 
'''Cameras''' 
Check the red light and speed [[Camera|cameras]] in your neighboorhood.

===Closures===
Another important aspect of the map is the availability of the roads. If you read about upcoming roadworks or see road work signs being placed, please report this in the [[Slack]] closure channel. As a '''L1''' editor you're not yet allowed to add [[Closures]] yourself. 
 

===Suggest an edit===
Via the feature Suggest an Edit editors are allowed to suggest edits on the WME when map attributes are locked due to lack of permissions, instead of asking for a Map Unlock in Slack or the forum. More info, see the [[Suggest an edit]] page.

===Scripts===
As a starting editor best first edit a while without using [[Scripts|scripts]]. So you get the best feeling what editing is about. If you have some editing practise you can start with installing informational scripts such as [[WME OpenMaps script|OpenMaps]] and [[WME Junction Angle info|JAI]]. 
 

===Tips===
* Testing is only possible after the [[Map-update|map-update]] and done best in the [[Waze app|app]].
* Don't add footpaths that aren't interesting for navigating or for reaching a destination: [[KISS|Keep it simple]]!
* Don't copy GoogleMaps. Use your own knowledge of your environment and only real copyright free [[Resources|resources]] like [[BAG]], [https://melvin.ndw.nu/public Melvin], [https://www.wegstatus.nl/home/ Wegstatus].
* Take the Waze course [https://skillshop.exceedlms.com/student/path/1151972-waze-map-editor-basics Waze Map Editor - Basics].
 

===Promotion===
If you like the work and are actively participating in our [[Community]] can request promotion to an '''L2''' editor. Quality goes above quantity; don't focus on points. More about this on the [[Community Levels]] page.
