No. The reason is that spammers often make a couple of seemingly legitimate posts and come back later when no moderator reads their edits to make an edit to add spam links.

If you have anything to add/change, there is no problem with posting it all in a reply.

Why would you want to delete a thread? If there really is a reason, ask a moderator to do it for you. Otherwise, information should not be deleted. Maybe it's of no use to you anymore, but perhaps it will be of use to others.

Uh, it does exist. There is a "The reported message does not fit into any other category, please use the further information field. " reason.

Well if for the forum is very usefull for example had this : viewtopic.php?t=8956

and this latest version of same content -> viewtopic.php?t=8958&sid=2169c07a059bd5 ... ec1cd6b996

the latest version is a re-arranged version of the before post, because i can't edit the first post to fix directly from the begining, becuase i need around 7 hours write every step, and re-check each step, on a virtual machine for check is replicable, or if i can, i use a USB and install directly the distro there, and with latest ISO of salix installed on a USB Pendrive, for example right now i need to edit the segment /etc/fstab on the latest post, well , but i got a new kernel 5.15.204, if i can i use this Friday 8/May/2026 to 10/May(2026 for make a new version of that posts of custom optimizations i make on my Salix OS.

I didn't add it. And I don't think anybody else has the rights to do it either. You must have missed it the first time.
