NY-Specific

City names

Primary: smallest incorporated entity:

  • City
  • Village
  • Town

NOT:

  • Hamlet
  • CDP
  • Postal

Alternate: Any of the above

Duplicate Cities

Greater XXX Area

File a City form, using the Merge option, to Merge it with city XXX

  • This avoids duplicate identical cities on dropdowns in WME
  • Duplicate nearby City IDs can make "Select Entire Street" not work and cause multi-select to show "No common street, No common city"

XXX (2)

If far away, File a City form, using the Rename option, to Rename it to XXX

  • This keeps a separate city ID for the far away city, allowing separate polygons to be drawn

If nearby, File a City form, using the Merge option, to Merge it to XXX

  • Similar to Greater XXX Area

No City, duplicate is far away

  • Submit city form (Which action?), Waze Staff adds one segment, Editor adds city to segments manually in WME

No City, duplicate is nearby

  • No form, Editor adds city to segments manually in WME

No City, city name doesn't exist

  • L4 creates City, Editor adds city to segments manually in WME

UR Workflow

  • 7+7
  • Forum thread about this

General

Street vs PLR

  • How is this defined?
  • Does Street mean it's a government-maintained road?
  • What about the main road in a Mall, Office Park, or Apartment Complex?

PLRs not named

  • Prevents repetitive turn instructions
  • Known side effect: inheritance of main road name
  • What if it "feels like" a Street and has signs? Does this make it a Street? (See previous question)

Search sources

Address search order I've heard - is there more to this?

  • RPP
  • Nudged Waze HN
  • Google HN
  • Unnudged Waze HN
  • Waze Interpolated HN

Place sources (Ordering?):

  • Waze Places
  • Google
  • Foursquare
  • Yelp
  • YP

Fixing Ad pins

  • Support Case?
  • PUR?
  • What about pins that don't show in WME?
