Editing submissions - the way forward
@Dave Hawksett @admin staff
Regarding this recent submission where an incorrect score was submitted...
https://www.twingalaxies.com/showthread.php/187331
Once upon a time, a mistake such as this would have been cancelled/rejected & resubmitted, and the community would have voted as such.
Given the precedent of https://www.twingalaxies.com/showthread.php/181877 (and I believe there may also be other recently edited submissions), is this also a suitable candidate to have the score edited?
If so, will any voters receive notification that this submission has been changed since casting their vote? (strictly speaking both Yes & No voters should be notified)
If this is the way forward, then I suggest this be considered a policy change worthy of publishing, so voters can be aware to not vote prematurely where such an error may be "fixed".
I still maintain that staff/Admin have more important things to do with their limited resources, and that submitters should be held accountable for their own errors. Especially considering that nowadays you need to double-enter the score.
