Reformatted (belatedly): added code tags when the (well-deserved) downvotes accumulated sufficiently to attract my attention.
Is my impression that answers submitted to the Q&A editors are NOT editable by the author, until approved into public use?
If so, maybe we should make the input box for Q&A look like (and behave like) those for SOPW, etc.
