Wow. I'm embarrassed to see those old posts of mine.

Actually, that's the same button we have marked Edit.
But apparently with moderation to prevent revisionism.
They can't have a very active user pool.

Good on 'ya!

But what'll you do when precisely 50% are conforming and 50% are non-conforming? Start an "Undecided" movement?

You could be like all the rest and get a head start, you know...

But our Edit button is only for the post's author; the example site allows (apparently) anyone to submit changes for approval.
Besides, it would give our Mods something to do... (just kidding, just kidding)

...and/or provide full-time employment for our resident wordsmiths!
