Re: finding and replacing

Could you possibly put your question back please?

This node (unless it gets reaped) will be around for a long time, complete with the answers that the other monks have given up their own time to write for you, which hopefully could provide useful information to help anyone else who came along in the future with a similar question... except that you've deleted your question, so their answers are dangling meaningless in cybervoid... :o(

Update:

for context: The question in this node had been removed and replaced with "Got the answer already!!"

Thank you for restoring the question :o)

It works for the greater good of the monastry to have original authors understand the value of their own nodes. Especially bearing in mind that everyone's posts collectively (both questions and answers) help make this place a valuable repository of information on the Net (and of course individually are an important contributor to one's XP!) Therefore, in the spirit of 459456 it should be better to encourage people to maintain their own contributions rather than having to get janitors come and clean up after us all, because that way authors know how to do it right next time and the janitors have more time to do their excellent work elsewhere!
