Using a text editor to edit a zone file for deleting a certain resource record. Does that take effect upon saving the file ? or another thing also needed to be updated in the zone file before saving the modifications "e,g, some parameter" ?

We're taling DNS, right? You need to reload the zone files by sending a -HUP to the named pid.
kill -HUP [named.pid]
If you are running a slave server as well you'd need to incrememt the serial by at least one or the slave won't get the updated zone data.
