The Vote Button in the Edit View

Is the "Vote" button still needed in the Edit view? There's nothing to vote on, anyway.

G'day choroba, 'Is the "Vote" button still needed in the Edit view? There's nothing to vote on, anyway.' ++ I can't see that it serves any purpose. The page only shows your own node, on which you can't vote. I'd consider it redundant. A leaf node that you authored (displayed in View, not Edit, mode) also has a redundant `[vote!]` button. — Ken	[reply] [d/l]

I agree -- when you are editing or viewing your own post, there's nothing to vote on, so the vote button's unnecessary. Alex / talexb / Toronto Thanks PJ. We owe you so much. Groklaw -- RIP -- 2003 to 2013.	[reply]
