 Editing own comments 

In the context of misrepresentation, may I draw your attention to WP:Talk:

'Altering a comment after it has been replied to robs the reply of its original context. It can also be confusing. Before you change, consider taking one of the following steps:
 Contact the person(s) who replied (through their talk page) and ask if it is okay to delete or change your text.
 use strike-through or a place-holder to show the comment has been altered.
 Strike-through is typed like this and ends up like this.
 A placeholder is a phrase such as ""[Thoughtless and stupid comment removed by the author.]"". This will ensure that your fellow editors' irritated responses still make sense. In turn, they may then wish to replace their reply with something like, ""[Irritated response to deleted comment removed. Apology accepted.]""

Please restore your original wording so that the responses of other editors remain meaningful, and consider alternative methods of making a fresh proposal.   "
