I made a mistake in typing some MathJAX in a comment, and the mistake is such that I cannot edit or erase the comment(s). (Yes, I also duplicated the comment. Ugh.) How do I fix this?

$\begingroup$ I once had a similar problem with my comment running well into the margin covering the "Related" area (and thus making the edit-icon unclickable). Flagging the comment/answer together with a suitable accompanying note caused a friendly moderator to drop by and fix things. $\endgroup$– Jyrki LahtonenCommented Jul 30, 2013 at 18:37

$\begingroup$ It happened to me as well. I think we can call that a "bug". $\endgroup$– JulienCommented Jul 30, 2013 at 18:58

$\begingroup$ Maybe you can post what you did, since the problem seems to be fixed now. At least I don't see any trouble at the linked post... $\endgroup$– draks ...Commented Jul 31, 2013 at 5:36

$\begingroup$ Yeah, I saw that it was deleted. I wish that I didn't have to see what was left over. $\endgroup$– Ron GordonCommented Aug 1, 2013 at 12:26

As pointed out in the comments, a fix for this issue is to flag the comment with a note to the moderators explaining the situation.

$\begingroup$ Well, I tried that, but I couldn't find a flag -- it is that messed up. I flagged the original question, which isn't good, but couldn't think of anything else. $\endgroup$ Commented Sep 6, 2013 at 3:57
