( - I quite often wish to edit my own comments) At the moment it would be easiest for me to delete a comment and then re-add it. Thanks for the plugin tips. I've seen some comments that are better than the blog post. Hi Priyadarshan,

good to hear from you

I think it would be good to be able to edit comments. ( – I quite often wish to edit my own comments)
At the moment it would be easiest for me to delete a comment and then re-add it.

Thanks for the plugin tips. I’ve seen some comments that are better than the blog post.

If comments are a welcome feature, should not the commenters be more empowered? I do not know if it is possible, but I also wish I could edit my comments.

(-; May I suggest the comments are numbered, as you can do with WordPress? Very useful to refer to others' comments, and built up comments.

One further tip to add to the cheater's guide to writing blog posts when you don't feel like writing is to quote or write up another blog or article.
