Can't edit my post?

I’m confused… it looks like I can’t edit my recent post (Ramo-Wooldridge RW-300). Is there a period of time after which edits are disabled? I would like to correct a document citation.

Yes indeed, there’s a limited edit window. If you need to update a post, please send a DM (click on my avatar, use the Message button.) Probably also worthwhile to post a new reply noting the update, so people notice.

There’s no Message button on your avatar, but it looks like I can message the moderators.

(is my trust level too low?)

Ah, yes, could be a trust level thing - but messaging the moderators will do the trick!

Sorry for the inconvenience.

I have never been a fan of limited edit windows. Sometimes I notice little things months/years later in a post and want to fix them but can’t.

On the other hand, I have seen people vandalize their old content for whatever reason but it just gets reverted.

If there is an important edit to be made, anyone can message the moderators and ask for a correction, of course!
