Strange, confusing wording on closed questions in Meta [duplicate]

$

I've just realized that in Meta, this part of the wording for improving closed questions is confusing on Meta:

close post notice

Want to improve this question? Add details and clarify the problem by editing this post.

On Meta, if you don't have edit privileges which are available at 2,000 reputation, you cannot suggest an edit to a Meta post.

I would suggest removing this message for people who have <2,000 rep to stop causing confusion.

I've realized that closed questions need editing by the author, so perhaps we could remove this message for everyone except the OP.


Related:If I click the "editing this post" link, then what happens is that it goes to meta.stackoverflow.com/posts/XXXXXX/edit, but instead of notifying that in Meta you can't edit a question if you have <2,000 rep, it says this:

There is a pending suggested edit in the queue. Try again in a few minutes.
