Error in PM error message is ineffective

I could easily make my offer in the form of a letter to Habrahabr’s technical support, but I wanted to know if I needed what I was going to offer someone else besides me.

Ashpeak


Quite often in the process of reading top posts on Habrahabr and Geektimes there are typos. It is not uncommon for these typos to break the whole point of a sentence or simply add discomfort when reading a post.
Despite the fact that since ancient times it is customary to report problems of this kind in private messages, I constantly see amendments in the comments, which, moreover, dilute holivar with useful comments, they also become irrelevant after making changes to the text.

Why are we all gathered here?


It's no secret to anyone that the content of Habrahabr and Geektimes is created by its users. It is clear that different authors create content of different quality, and sometimes even shamelessly copy someone else's work. Karma and voice for posts are used to regulate content, and it works great, but there are no tools to contribute to someone else’s article.

Editing and Versioning



In the screenshot, an example of editing someone else's question with the display of changes. Those who use, for example, git, this picture is very familiar. I generally keep quiet about stackoverflow users. I propose to add to the functionality of Habrahabr and Geektimes a similar editing system. Accept edits, I think, should the authors of posts and editors. Thus, you can very quickly correct a typo, hide a long post under the cat, make additions to the post.
