Welcome to sixth Editors Community Newsletter :)
In light of the constantly evolving situation with CoViD-19, we hope everyone is safe and healthy. We'd like to thank you, our busy community members for helping each other navigate to safety always, and especially at this time. Read on to find out what our communities did in recent months
Waze Communities Team.
The all new Wazer to Wazer website was launched with many resources and procedures for all Waze community members!
Browse the site to find which Waze Staff member manages your community, webinar materials, Beacons information and more!
The site's kickoff was especially exciting as it enclosed an interview, with none other than our very own Chief Wazer, Noam Bardin!
Take a few minutes to watch the interview where Noam answers community questions and talks about plans for 2020.
Thanks to local communities, the Toll Prices feature is also now available in Mexico, France, Germany, Lithuania and Honduras! This makes a total of 40 countries which enjoy routing with the Toll Prices Feature!

Featuring Top Contributor - Yoav Yaacoby!
Yoav started editing the map 7 years ago and has since become a Global Champ.
Yoav is always looking to help new editors, so he created several videos and Wazeopedia pages. As one of the leaders of the Israeli community, Yoav decided it would be nice to present 3 Area Managers with a certificate of excellence each year, and this kind tradition has been going on since 2017. Yoav posts a weekly riddle, which he also shared with us here.
*Yoav's photo contains another riddle!
The mistakes’ park is used as the final part of mentoring level 1 editors towards level 2.
Yoav posts a weekly riddle in Hebrew in the Israeli forum and everyone is invited to enjoy them using Google translate, even though most are location specific.
The Nepali community organized their first Waze Cafe which was top-notch!
15 members attended, most of them new editors who were just introduced to Waze editing.
The day before the Cafe there were 3 editors with 236 edits, the following day, there were 11 new editors with 455 edits! A week after the cafe, there were 15,021 new edits in Nepal!!
Congratulations to the Nepali community and a special thanks to moweez and MadanKPradhan for organizing such a great event! We welcome the community to keep growing and editing!
