Edit timeframe and new content types, namely Article

[beerForo]

I would like to see a separate edit timeframe for Articles since I already have users that post "articles" (tutorials, etc.) as threads and need to update them. Would like to just keep it unlimited for the new Article content type and put the limit on the others types. Thanks!

A longer draft time frame for Article is a MUST.

If the use case is not obvious the best example is, take a very popular article, people reply with more info like "Did you know if you did this...?" And the article writer says "Great information, let me add that!" Articles have a longer lifespan than discussions and can be used for years. They are usually stickies on my site, but are threads. The new Article type is awesome. Thanks!

Another use case is following Kickstarter or other product releases and such. It's nice to have the OP updated with the latest info and pics etc.

It makes sense to me because this is the way it works with resources isn’t it?
