Posting corrections ?

[Barnac]

Is there a way to make correction to a previous post, if after being posted the editor of the post wants to make adjustments or corrections to the post He did  create ?

I know the preview is not there for nothing but It's seems I always noticed my mistake afterward :-(

Regards

Barnac;

Well, in a story submission, yes. Comments to stories can not be edited by anyone to my knowledge. I regularly correct spelling errors on submitted stories and correct for image sizing and how a story displays such as adding some whitespace to ease reading of the story. Editing  for content after comments have been submitted would raise lots of issues so, personally, I don't think that is a good idea.

However, we can delete a comment so it could be resubmitted in a corrected form if needed.

The easiest thing to do if a story you posted has errors is to simply resubmit it in the corrected form with some kind of note or comment that it is the one you want kept and I can delete the previous post. Again, once replies have been posted deleting a comment will delete replies to it [I think] so more "issues" of fairness arise.

We try to be pretty flexible here so let us know what you want and we will do what we can.

Cheers.

Tom;

Thanks for you answer, just wanted to know. After I posted a comment on the post "Furling system" I noticed some spelling errors,typos and space missing. So my intention was not to change the essence of it but simply to do a little bit of manucure. Nothing major. You know when your writing in your second language (Ok Ok I admit it's only an excuse here cause I am not even better in french.)

If I ever post something with wrong informations then I will resubmit it in the corrected form with appologies to every ones :-)

Regards.
