Talk page practice
If you wish to change something you've written on a talk page, there are various approaches. Simple deletion or amendment is only appropriate very soon after you've made the original post, when there's a fair chance that no-one else has seen it yet. If someone has replied, then you should leave the text they've seen and replied to in place, so that other editors can follow the discussion. But if you wish to withdraw something - perhaps it was an error, perhaps the tone was wrong - you can strike it out thus, and usually add a note about it lower down in the discussion - "I've struck a bit, didn't mean it/was wrong/whatever". If you believe the material should not be visible to anyone (for example if it should be private, or it's grossly insulting), then you can request that it be not merely deleted in the usual way but also expunged so that no-one can find it even in the history - that requires special powers.
