I tried to edit [a recipe](https://cooking.codidact.com/ar/275936) I'd posted, by using the "edit" link below the post text. That gave me a 404 Not Found error. Looking at the URL, I noticed that it says /answers/.../edit, which is wrong because that's not an answer. (It's not a question, either.) When I manually changed the URL to /articles/.../edit instead, editing worked fine and I was able to save my changes. This is almost certainly related to [URLs in RSS feeds wrongly assume that all top-level posts are questions](https://meta.codidact.com/q/275940) (which has been fixed). Given that this is already two very similar bugs, I wouldn't be surprised if there are some other hardcoded assumptions elsewhere along the lines of "top-level posts are always questions, and anything that's not a question is an answer".
