Edit - Stack Overflow

You are not logged in. Your edit will be placed in a queue until it is peer reviewed.

We welcome edits that make the post easier to understand and more valuable for readers. Because community members review edits, please try to make the post substantially better than how you found it, for example, by fixing grammar or adding additional resources and hyperlinks.

Rev

the fact that you don't have comment privileges do not allow you to edit others' answers to add your comments; you edit others' answers to improve them in formatting, syntax, ..., not to add your opinion on them. When you'll reach 50 rep you'll be able to comment everywhere, in the meantime I'm quite sure you can resist (or, if you really can't, write your comments to existing answers in your post). (note for others: I write this because I saw - and rejected - his proposed comments-edits to other posts in the moderation tools)
