Hello Mappers,
We’re delighted to have such passionate mappers continuing to contribute valuable suggestions for improving Google Map Maker. We’ve incorporated some of your ideas and have also been working on introducing in-product help support in Map Maker. Please post your thoughts and suggestion on this release here.

Currently, in-product help is available in the following languages:

This is now fixed, and you will no longer see any such error.
“State” will now be called “District” in Cook Islands

As always, thanks for your continued input as we strive to improve Map Maker for everyone!
Cheers,
Sneha, on behalf of the Map Maker Team, Google
