At this time, we’re deciding against an ‘edit’ button whereby folks could modify their own comments. While such a feature would allow folks to fix their typos, it also would come with some downside potential, per the experience of other site moderators I’ve talked with regarding such a feature. Sooo, if you would like to try to avoid entering typos, I would suggest a quick proofread before hitting send. Or maybe compose what may be a lengthy comment in Word or some other text editor that is easier to see lots of text in and that offers some sort of spellcheck functionality, and then copy/paste into the comments box. At any rate, most typos don’t keep one’s point from coming through, and if there’s any question, folks can always ask for clarification.
