 * I started a thread in the “Your WordPress – Strut your stuff” forum but the thread
   is competing with my homepage in the search results which doesn’t look very professional.
   I wanted and appreciated the advice, but I also wanted this to happen behind 
   the scenes so to speak.
 * Could a moderator please edit the post by stuartwider to say ‘The title’ instead
   of ‘my website name’ followed by ‘title’. It is in the second bullet point by
   stuartwider.
 * The thread is located here: [http://wordpress.org/support/topic/laptop-deals-website-v10?replies=3](http://wordpress.org/support/topic/laptop-deals-website-v10?replies=3)

 * It is not the general policy to edit or delete forum posts. When a post is made
   and people contribute answers to an issue, that then becomes part of the community
   resource for others to benefit from. Deleting posts removes this added value.
   In extreme circumstances, the moderation team might be persuaded to remove sensitive
   information but. generally, your best course of action is not to publish anything
   that you wouldn’t want to be public.
 * I’m sorry but this is not an extreme case.
