Undo edits

[#1]

We all make mistakes. Currently, if we make a mistake in an edit in Maps, and realize that mistake, there is no way for us to withdraw an edit if it is in a pending state. We are forced to wait for the edit, even if wrong to be approved and published or "Not Applied".

Please consider adding an "undo" or "cancel" for edits in a pending state. Why should any editor want to waste another person's time checking facts when they know its incorrect.

Eventually this ability should be extended to pending edits submitted through the feedback process (roads and other miscellaneous).

you are absolutely right.

I have thought about this.  It would be very useful to be able to cancel a pending and other edits.

@NABILazeez this suggestion already was created - see https://www.localguidesconnect.com/t5/All-Ideas/Ability-to-Cancel-Pending-Edits/idi-p/694543

Mods, please merge this suggestion.

Would be a very good option. There has been a time where I accidently closed a POI or  mispelled a name, address, etc., and would like to cancel the edit (or change it) so it could be done correctly.

Thank you for your idea! @NABILazeez. I merged your idea here since it's the same idea.

This is very needed!

I made an unfortunate mistake recently in an edit, and I immediately wanted to cancel/delete that edit. However, there was no way to do that! (That edit is still pending, and eventually will not be approved.)

It would save much time and effort if I could undo my mistaken edit.

Thank you for your idea, @Massima! We need more information to better understand what you’re suggesting. Do you think this change might result in more mistakes in Google Maps?
