【Korea Archives】

Update 7/27/2018 11:15 a.m. ET:The Korea Archivesso-called edit button appears to be simply a feature of a third-party plug-in for Tweetdeck called "Better Tweetdeck." Twitter says it isn't testing an edit button, and it replied to the original poster with a GIF of The Officecharacter Jim Halpert shaking his head.

The original story follows below:

According to ProPublica reporter Logan Jaffe, it looks like... wait for it... Twitter may be testing an EDIT BUTTON.

This Tweet is currently unavailable. It might be loading or has been removed.

A tweet edit function is one of the most requested features on Twitter — requests that Twitter has steadfastly denied. In June, Kim Kardashian even lobbied Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey directly for the feature — making the most headway of anyone to date on the issue. Jack, is Kim responsible for this?

It's worth noting that Jaffe's screenshot comes from Tweetdeck -- not Twitter dot com or the Twitter app itself. After being asked for more information, Jaffe tweeted a clarification that she was able to use the edit button, on Tweetdeck, to edit a tweet.

In the meantime — for all you typo-makers, and tweet regret-havers out there — here's hopin' this lil' button could be the real thing.
