    Posts are only edited
   or removed where to do otherwise might lead to serious consequences. Previous
   examples have included posts that accidentally incorporated proprietary code 
   or where the poster asking has reason to fear for their online safety. Having
   a posted site url come up in Google in NOT a serious consequence. 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. Forum topics will only be edited or deleted if they represent a 
   valid legal, security, or safety concern.

 * Man! maybe it not a big issue for you but it is for me? I don’t even have the
   right to edit my posts at least? speechless.
 * just give me one info about this: [https://wordpress.org/about/privacy/data-erasure-request/](https://wordpress.org/about/privacy/data-erasure-request/)
 * Does it delete my Gravatar account as well? unfortunately, now I have to delete
   my whole WordPress account because of this concern.

 * It can be reconsidered in future (increasing time window for editing posts, ability
   to delete own posts), but even this will not remove quotation of your site url
   of people who have replied to you.
 * Data erasure request will anonymize your WordPress.org account, your posts will
   remain, and replies to your opened topics too.
 * Your Gravatar account will remain intact, because its not related to WordPress.
