Why multiple approvers for proposed edits
I've come across what seems to be a strange behavior of stackoverflow:
- I have the privilege to edit other user's questions. When I do so, it does not need to be approved and other people see the edited question.
- When an edit of a question needs to be approved (I guess because the editor does not have sufficient reputation), I can approve that edit. Still the edit needs to be approved by a second user. Until then, people see the original version of the question.
What is the reason behind this? In my opinion, someone who may edit a question without the need for approval should be able to approve an edit such that no second approval is necessary.
