Recommended Scripts for new editors

Almost all editors use scripts. They allow you to work much more efficiently and to catch you own errors early.

These are the apps that most editors start out with. Installation instructions can be found in the wiki at the URL at the bottom.

WME Validator

Shows many common errors.

WME Toolbox

Contains many powerful tools and highlights, including fixes common errors at intersections

Color Highlighter

Makes some road segment features easier to see.

Chat addon

Gives your chat window a much-needed upgrade and smooths away a couple of WME chat bugs.

UR Comments

Helps manage URs and responding to them

WME Closest Segment

Shows you where a place's stop point will be positioned

Bookmarklets

These are two Chrome bookmarklets that will facilitate getting to WME from either Livemap or Google Maps.

Livemap

While Livemap already has an edit button to get you back to WME, this booklet will get you back to WME at the point where the cursor is. This allows you to use LMUR to look at URs over an area of several counties and open WME zoomed in to a particular UR.

Google Maps

This bookmarklet allows you to pick a spot on a google map and then open WME at that point. Often when I track down a bad address in Google I want to see the same spot in WME.

It's also sometimes easier to find intersections named in closures in Google and then bounce back to WME.

Although both of these routines could be used as true bookmarklets, practical considerations make them much easier to use under a shortcut manager. Since you are using the cursor to designate a point on the map, it is much more practical to execute these using a keyboard shortcut.

The shortcut manager I use on Chrome is Link.
