I made an edit to a question but after I submitted it, I discovered that although the user intended to say
method instead of
variable, the answers and comments were correct regarding the question as is and my edit made all the answers (including mine) look out of place.
Any one reading the question now would wonder why the answers were saying something completely different to what the user asked. I think it would make more sense to change the question to what it was before the edit. Is is possible?
