Wow, really? You have the magic touch. I've reported a handful of incorrect address locations up to 8 times over the course of 6 months and haven't seen any of them fixed.

If you're only editing for points, you should get a new hobby. Waze does use internal address numbers in certain countries. And soon, will start to use internal address numbers for app-side address searches as well as POIs. It is not a futile effort. Just maybe no extra points.

I wouldn't say useless. What will be useless is if Waze starts relying on internal address numbers and that data isn't accurate because not enough of us have entered or verified the info.

I would hope they would give us some warning...

Hi,
I have a corner house and Waze usually routes me to the side of my house. Is there any way to fix the house number so that I'll end up in front of my house rather than the side of my house?
Thanks

Not that I know of... I don't think you can change the default address search behavior in the client.
Herve-rv wrote:- When will waze fix its editor to manage the street numbers again ? (I hope they didn't simply thrown this away ....)
The new version of WME (currently released) has a "House Numbers" tab when you select a segment. It's there, it's not great, but it will at least allow the address range to be entered. However I haven't seen any "house number" reports from users... Waze has said that they are working on more of a point specific address system, BUT it will take a while.
Herve-rv wrote:another question : is it a issue specific to the "world" site or is it also the same for the "normal" one too ?
I'm pretty sure it's the same on both...

On a side note, you can submit address updates here - read the page, links at the bottom to the two primary providers to GPS systems: http://www.gps.gov/support/user/mapfix/

The house number system is on beta WME. Just waiting to go into production. ;)
