Considerations

• Notifications: Editing a comment does not send a notification to the comment's author.
• Flagging of edited comments: Edited comments display a "Last edited by " message below them that identifies who made the latest edit, and when it was made.
• Comment moderation: If comment moderation is turned on, edits to existing comments require moderator approval before they are applied and visible to other users.

Who can do this?

• Enterprise administrators
• Workplace administrators
• Space administrators, but only in their Space
• Members who have Full access to the content
• Comment authors can edit their own comments
