How do you remove or edit your question or answer?

Why is it that after every question I answer the words edit and delete stay under my answer?

  • when I type in an answer to a question and then submit it the words edit and delete remain at the bottom.can someone please help?

  • Answer:

    The words "Edit" and "Delete" will be shown under your answers to YOU only while the question you answered is still OPEN. If you click on them, you will be given the option to either edit or delete your answer. - Clicking "Edit" will let you change or add anything in your answer. - Clicking "Delete" will let you completely delete your answer BUT you will lose back the 2 points you earned for the answer and you WON'T be able to answer that question again. They will not be visible to other people because only you have the option to do this to your answer. They will go away when the question becomes RESOLVED or IN VOTING as you won't be able to change anything by then anymore.

That is so if you want to change your answer, or withdraw it for some reason, you can. It happens to everyone, but only on their own answer. We can't see it under your answers, only under our own.

Because you can still edit or delete your answer. That is only visible to you on your answers.
