I agree. What was I drunk? If someone can create a petition with coherent grammar, I fully support moving to that one. And I'll send feedback asking them to remove mine.

I've already begged them for editing ability, but I doubt we'll see that any time soon.

You can't edit something that people have already signed, for obvious reasons.

The best you could do is to delete it and start again. 2nd best, and probably the only option available to you, is to ignore this petition, stop promoting it, and start a new one.

Yeah, I'm begging them to take it down at this point. I do think wiki editing with notifications would be one way to do edits of something people signed. But yeah, still not practical.

They did have a "review before publish" page that I accidentally clicked right through (the "Oh crap" moment). I wonder if you can share it in a limited fashion to get feedback on the language from that page?
