There is only a certain window of time (a few minutes, from memory) during which edits can be made, reducing the need for the extra complexity of implementing it.

Then again, maybe not. Hmm. Official word?

A 'last edited' wouldn't hurt. In fact, it seems more important than the original posting.

Oops! blush There's so many comments now I missed it.

Maybe post-beta we could start new, seperate posts for bugs and requests?

Maybe a separate sub-reddit for bug related topics, to group them all together, or a tag.

I've since posted the article, but I'd still like an explanation of drafts and saving.

Think of 'drafts for username' as a private site where you can post articles - i.e. a 'holding area' - until you think they are ready to be viewed in Less Wrong.

An article can only exist in one 'area' at a time, either drafts or lesswrong.

If you delete an article, it will remain deleted regardless of which site you post it to. (I'm unsure if you can undelete an articles, but its status would remain deleted if you moved it).

Also, when you are logged in, you should be able to edit posts via their 'edit' link on the bottom right hand side of the article.

If you've ever used reddit, think of it as a private subreddit (as that's what it is).

In my preferences, I've marked the checkbox for making my votes public. However, I'm not sure where I can see the votes I or anyone else has made. Is this simply not implemented yet, or hidden somewhere?

They should show up in the liked and disliked pages of your user profile. If they don't, then there is a bug!

(The 'tabs' will show up if the user, like yourself, has the option selected).
