How much deleting do you do? About 50% of my postings here at HN are deleted (by me) once I think about what I want to say, and decide it doesn't really add value. By then, I've gotten the snark or "yeah, but what about X" energy out of my body, it's better for me, and for everyone else when I just back out of it.

How much editing do you do? I write up all of my thoughts. Then move the words around in the compose box until it looks good. Then, after I hit "add comment" I find at least one spelling error each and every time.

You've got up to 2 hours here to edit comments if someone points out issues, I try to make good use of that time.
