Why can't I review a suggested edit to my answer

Question

I received a "please review" notification of an edit suggested for an answer of mine (It's also my question, but I think that's irrelevant). The edit seems good, and I wanted to approve it. But I couldn't see how to do this - I couldn't see a button or link or something to do it. I noticed the following two things:

1. It says that someone reviewed the edit.

2. Next to the user who suggested the edit, it says that 0 of his edits have been rejected, and 0 approved.

I take this to mean that the reviewer who looked at it didn't have a conclusive opinion and left it for the "next" reviewer to decide. But if that's true why can't I approve it?

Answer 1

Your post was merged, which I think is the cause of the confusion.

Regardless, you wouldn't be asked to approve edits to your questions or answers. That isn't how the site works. Others can make edits any time and (with sufficient reputation) they are automatically approved.

If users make an edit to someone else's post, and have less than 2000 reputation, your edits are peer-reviewed by someone who does.
