I would like to be able to edit and delete any post in my tvs' travelogs for two reasons: (but mainly because of 1.)
1.
If I think (part of) an update is inappropriate I would like to be able to delete it immediately or to take out a photo (e.g. one showing an address) and not have to wait for the host or a moderator to do so.
2.
It would also help if I could help with linking photos properly or adding the correct coordinates if the host has trouble with this, esp. if the host vanishes from the site and can't be reached to make these changes.

why it's not appropriate to have a photo showing an address? do you mean, if it is a photo that only shows an address but does not contain a toyvoyager, then it would be considered as inappropriate.

You shouldn't show an address online for everybody to see without consulting the person who's name and address it is first. If you show a tv crawling out of its envelope, please be sure to cover up the address or to make it illegible later with a paint or another programm.
See here.

Just another point of view ... I would prefer that mentors not have the right to edit my writing. I think having administrators who can delete as needed works. Somehow I would feel as if I were a writer working for the mentor who was my editor/publisher. Losing that sense of ownership of my contribution to the TV's story might make me less motivated to do all that work ... i mean, all that labor of love.

Petra didn't find my post to be clear and suggested I add this clarification from our PM exchange:
Someone a year ago suggested that mentors be able to edit their TV's travelogues ... even the parts written by the hosts, by other people. I am just saying I'd like to keep things as is. When addresses have been showing, in one case of mine, the host was quick to make the fix when I PMed her. And I think you or Neil or Isobel would make any important changes quickly if requested.
