| Jul 27 at 12:22 | comment | added | Valorum | I've posted a million comments on SFF leading people to the meta post about asking better questions. I always see it as a gentle nudge in the right direction, not a shove. | |
| Jul 27 at 11:25 | comment | added | Napoleon Wilson Mod | Okay. I understand how you mean that now. | |
| Jul 27 at 11:04 | comment | added | galacticninja | @NapoleonWilson "You can as much click on that reason willy-nilly as you can on any other." True, but you'd need to explain your reasoning if asked—just like with any close vote. What about the question "needs details or clarity"? Without a good explanation, it'll likely get "leaved open" in the review queue. | |
| Jul 27 at 10:52 | comment | added | Napoleon Wilson Mod | First of all, thank you for your insightful ideas (well, everyone actually, but I'm commenting here now ;-)). But I'd like to address your point about the close-reason. You say "the "needs details or clarity" reason requires close voters to specify why the question lacks sufficient details, encouraging more thoughtful close voting". However, that isn't actually the case. You can as much click on that reason willy-nilly as you can on any other. I do agree that removing the specific reason adds a bit more of a hurdle, but the only reason that really encourages explanations is "other". | |
