In reviewing 'Flagged' answers what is the recommended procedure - does you edit and de-flag?
Yes - if your editing results in the flag being no longer necessary, it can be removed. For example, say you saw the question 'What is the value of Pi to ten decimal places' - and the answer had been flagged as gibberish, because someone had answered 'ten pieces of pie'. - If you were to replace that answer with the correct one of 3.1415926536, you can remove the flag - as the question no longer has a 'gibberish' answer.
If the answer has multiple flags, only remove the one(s) you're correcting.

Why are some answers flagged for web addresses when those web addresses are used to support answers?
