Great. I have my answers now. I searched for it but did not find any related topic. I should have used "Editing history" instead of "Edit history". Thanks you Welsh and pkmoney. I am going to lock the topic.

Love yourself.
Mods can see the edit history.

Can admins see editing history of a post?

Yes, though it's a bit of a hassle.

I believe admins are the only ones to have access to the edit history of a post, and I believe it's not as easy as it sounds to look at. Moderators can't see the edit history AFAIK, and implementing something like this would only be useful in certain scenarios where other times it will just be useless. I get annoyed when people on Reddit edit their post, and state "edit: a word".

There's currently no history of profile fields, though, so you definitely can't rely on your signature or anything like that.

I was wondering if the Mods has edit history feature? if yes, then wouldn't it be nice to make it available to members as well?

Recently I'm dealing with a member who opened a topic against me on the Scam Accusations section because s/he is simply mad at me. The guy edits his OP and responses through out the topic too much without mentioning.
Latest archival of post number #1 #2 #12 #14 #18. The user edits his posts too much time with already answered posts. The added contents on the same post then get missed easily to be answered.

We learn from experiences. I never had this experience so, never thought about a feature like this would be in need. I guess in general, an edit history feature (like Facebook) would help the readers to clear their head with all the edited steps in serious cases.

Archive.is helps but it's not actually enough IMO. You are pretty much lost when it comes to too many edits.

Your inputs will be highly appreciated.
