I don't notice that I would normally not have the edit button... so it might cut it down a little bit. Though not completely. So perhaps only on one end of the deal. Definitely not for the time between approval and someone 2k+ coming and editing. | |

So basically do the edits off site, and then quickly paste them in to avoid some of the rejects? Perhaps that ratio is unimportant. I can't see your statistics, for example for accept/reject ratio. | |
