The edit link doesn't appear in a question

Question

I noticed that I don't see the edit link in a question asked 2 hours ago, but I see the link in other questions, including the ones asked less than 2 hours ago.

Free backup software

How to clone a harddisk excluding some directories?

Address Book: Is there any way to move the fields up/down?

This behavior is not the same I note in other Q&A sites where I don't have the privilege of editing posts.

Answer 1

Anonymous users are limited to suggesting edits for posts more than 8 hours old.

As a registered user with < 2000 rep you should be able to suggest edits on any post, provided

• the suggested edit queue is not full.
• the post does not already have a suggested edit.
