If editing is rejected dont delete the post (i am afraid to edit my posts)

You guys have me scared to edit my posts with a lot of votes because i know that if the edit is deemed not acceptable by the mojang staff, they will delete my whole post. Please just reject the edit if you don't like what i'm editing, we shouldn't have to be afraid to edit our posts because of the fear of them taken down.

    It isn't really constructive and it doesn't help with listening to the community if they are afraid to edit their posts. I have a post with 370+ votes that i want to edit to include something, but i'm not doing so for the sole fact that i'm afraid it will get deleted. Mojang did that to another player and he never got back the votes his first one originally had when he remade it.

    Once I had a great (in my humble opinion) post that got removed.  After reading the rules of writing feedback, I realized it was because I had added some unnecessary pictures.  Because of one edit, my post got removed.

    A post I recently edited and attached an image to got taken down for whatever reason. It's really annoying that it keeps happening and that Mojang hasn't given me an email telling me why they did it or anything.

    Edit: Turns out, after some trial and error, the post was getting taken down because of the image. I don't understand why since its only purpose was to display the structure I was going for, but that's what was causing it for whatever reason. Still shouldn't even be happening regardless.

    They just deleted one of my posts that had 27 votes after I corrected spelling that had been accidentally duplicated! Mojang fix this! I had to edit some of my other posts because of this and now they risk getting deleted too! They don't even send an email, or send it to another pending category where I can correct the problem before it gets deleted.

    Do not be afraid as long as the posts are backed up elsewhere.

    If you back up your posts, there’s a problem. All votes are not retained after a post is deleted.

    I had a post that was rejected almost right away and it was in the middle of editing. It was the Fireflallay and no email or message was sent straight after rejection. It was a well written idea. I was trying to fix flaws in the post but could not do it in time. Maybe posts need at least 5-7 minutes to get accepted or rejected.

    Edit: Corrected a mistake: changed ‘I’ to ‘in’ in “could not do it in time”.
