That's now fixed.

You can.  "The voting code has been rewritten so that if you vote
twice, it overwrites your earlier vote" (from the top of the opening
page, "things you should be aware of" :-)

It must be madly popular! :-)  I can't do much about that at the
moment.  Let's wait and see whether it becomes a real impediment to
usage.

You can edit your own RCRs; when you view one of them, there should be
an "Edit this RCR" option.  For the most part I think the Ruwiki
format should be adequate without inlined HTML; at least I'd like to
see how it goes.  In the old version I had a very convoluted and
unwieldy filtering process; I'd like to try to keep it simple this
time around, I know there are a few stray escaped HTML tags in the
ported data; at some point I'll look into batch-unescaping them or
something, if they're enough of a nuisance.
