The Edit module is included in Drupal core. When enabled, the Edit module provides in-place content editing functionality for fields..
Rather than having to visit a separate page to edit content, it may be edited in-place. Technically, this module adds classes and data- attributes to fields and entities, enabling them for in-place editing.
Users must be given the 'access in-place editing' permission to use the module. Once the user has the appropriate permissions, the an edit icon (a pencil) will appear in the top right corner of nodes and node teasers. Clicking this allows the user to edit the field or delete the node.
