   I would like to ask:

   What is the difference between edit_post_link('Edit'); and edit_post_link(__('Edit'));?

   Thanks in advance for your help!

   The second one is prepared for localization (l10n), i.e. it must come from a theme that is "internationalized" (i18n).

   Thank you for the reply. Do the parameters for the former stand for the latter too?

   e.g. edit_post_link(__('edit', '<p>', '</p>'));

   Because my tests show they don't...

   Never checked, although they should. However, if it doesn't work and you don't intend to distribute your theme to international users - you don't really need it.

   I see.

   Again, thank you!
