Question Editing in critiques

How do I strikeover text when I am editing a post to critique it? I see bold, italics, underline, justification and other editing buttons, but no strikeover. How do you indicate "remove this text?"

Thanks.

There's a couple of different schools of thought.

Strikeover doesn't work though. I never use it and i'm not sure when it faded off,but I checked the coding, [s] [/s] ,and it isn't active.

I simply quote the text and say "Cut this or that" but more importantly follow that up with a reason why.

It's cool when someone walks away with not just how to fix that sentence, but others later.
