Facebook Allows Users to Suggest Edits to Places Pages

Facebook users will now see a “Suggest Edits” link in the top right of the info tab for Places pages. When clicked, it reveals a content editor allowing them to add and edit information such as the website or email address of a business. The edits do not immediately go live. Instead, Facebook tells us it implements edits to unclaimed Places after review when appropriate, and is working on a system for presenting potential edits to the admins of claimed Places.

The ability to suggest edits will help Places stay up to date over time and give users the sense that they have a stake in local businesses.
