Why do the words "edit"  /  "delete" appear below an answer to a question?

cause you wrote that question, and in case you screwed up the spelling or decided not to do it after all cause it would be a dense question.

There is usually a place you can click to get rid of it.  Sometimes it is the word "Close" or "Skip" hidden in there somewhere.  Very annoying!  But take a close look and you should see a place to click to close it in most cases.

You can probably ask the administrator to do it for you, but in the meantime, if you really want to remove everything, start in your profile to find all the questions you asked (if any) - there should be a little box to the right of the text, and one button will say "Delete question."\n\nFor your responses, there should be two links ("Edit" and "Delete") right below the text of your answers.

that isnt a question, why do you have a question mark at the end? and also that makes no sense at all, try to re-write it.

the answers crew will delete it after a certain amount of time goes by. They leave it up for awhile so people can look at it in case they have the same question.

I'm not sure, you don't say why but from your message.... ....I'd say the "spelling moderator" had something to do with it!! LOL!! ;)

Delete means that there is no sign that any word is present sometime ago.\n\nwhile whatever the Eraser is there is always you can identify that something is written before.

I hate it more when you have chosen a best answer and they delete your question. I rather have it be deleted before it was ever put on here so people could answer.

when i ask or answer, i try to edit my words before it is posted. i try not to offend that person's typing abilities when i answer a question.

programming issue? your question got deleted?

It is good that the answers never get deleted. That way there is a good knowledge database of answers built up over time.\n\nHowever, I agree with you that we should be able to remove them from our 'personal folders', or move them to a 'resolved folder'. \n\nThose of us on Level3+ have maybe 300+ answers.....it gets a bit messy at times.

Just go back and delete the question under the wrong name. \n\nthen type it in under the correct one. \n\nYou can probably cut and paste it.

Put your pointer over the icon that looks like a pencil. One of the choices there will be Delete Question.
