| Sep 23, 2017 at 5:04 | comment | added | NVZ | @EnglishStudent I just chanced upon that comment. Please check whether or not I have a comment under a post or if I have made any edits to it before leaving a comment for me. I won't get notified otherwise. :) /// My answer would be a duplicate there. | |
| Sep 22, 2017 at 9:44 | comment | added | English Student | @NVZ Your deleted answer here actually answers very well another very recent meta Q posted by another OP: interpersonal.meta.stackexchange.com/questions/1748/… -- can you actually migrate an answer from one Q to another? If not then please consider posting it as a new A to that Q. | |
| Sep 22, 2017 at 6:17 | comment | added | English Student | It's amazingly nonsensical that this meta Q about close voting has itself received 2 close votes. Unclear what you are asking? Some close-voting members sure don't want to understand what OP is trying to say here. | |

| Sep 22, 2017 at 0:17 | comment | added | user288 | @OldPadawan "Why doesn't OP get a chance to read comments and improve?" the OP does get a change to read comments and improve, and once that occurs, the question will be reopened. This is basic Stack Exchange philosophy on every site in the network, see meta.stackexchange.com/questions/98022/… | |
| Sep 21, 2017 at 23:45 | comment | added | Catija Mod | No... I'm asking you literally what have you seen... give some examples. | |
| Sep 21, 2017 at 23:44 | comment | added | apaul | That it's necessary to ploddingly say "is this a problem" in one question and then, in a new question "we've decided this is a problem, what now?" @Catija | |
| Sep 21, 2017 at 23:41 | comment | added | Catija Mod | What have you seen? | |
| Sep 21, 2017 at 23:37 | comment | added | apaul | @Catija Ideally that would be the case, but from what I've seen so far... | |
| Sep 21, 2017 at 23:36 | comment | added | Catija Mod | I don't know that I agree with that. I think it's valuable to be neutral in your observations and to not present a solution in your question but I don't think it's necessary to ploddingly say "is this a problem" in one question and then, in a new question "we've decided this is a problem, what now?" | |
| Sep 21, 2017 at 23:22 | comment | added | apaul | @Catija I've noticed that it's often better to separate the observation from the "what to do about it" on this meta... | |
| Sep 21, 2017 at 23:19 | comment | added | Catija Mod | I think you should add the gist of your comment on NVZ's answer into your question because that isn't something I picked up from what you're saying, which is why I'm not sure my answer really responds to that angle. | |
| Sep 21, 2017 at 23:18 | comment | added | apaul | My bad, not technically the "front page", but the issue still remains. @Catija | |
| Sep 21, 2017 at 23:17 | comment | added | Catija Mod | OK, but you don't say that in your question. Personally, I never use that view, so (as I said) your phrasing was confusing). | |

| Sep 21, 2017 at 23:16 | comment | added | apaul | @Catija if you open the questions page and sort by newest, there's an option at the bottom of the list of questions to show 15, 30, or 50 questions per page. | |
| Sep 21, 2017 at 23:08 | comment | added | Catija Mod | I have to admit that, since you asked the question I've been unsure where "3 out of 15" even comes from. The front page of the site has many more than 15 questions on it, so I'm not sure why that metric is what you chose. | |

| Sep 21, 2017 at 23:02 | comment | added | user288 | What is the problem here? If questions should be closed, then they should be closed. this is true if there is one question or fifty. if there are specific questions that should not be closed, lets talk about that. | |

| Sep 21, 2017 at 18:10 | comment | added | OldPadawan | Agree with you, but sometimes, it's more than fast! Earlier, I was reviewing (1st post). I was writing a comment to OP so that he takes the tour and read help, then edit and improve. Q got 5 close votes within a couple of minutes. Wow! Do we need to be TFGITW? Why doesn't OP get a chance to read comments and improve? | |
| Sep 21, 2017 at 17:23 | comment | added | Rory Alsop | Similarly to Tycho - I view them as "hold" votes, really. Close only happens if they can't be fixed... | |
| Sep 21, 2017 at 16:56 | comment | added | Tycho's Nose | It depends. I almost always try to help someone improve their question either before I vote to close it or as I'm about to. I have no problem retracting my vote once the person edits their question. A lot of times, I see comments and requests for a question being improved and it still won't get improved. I don't know what I am expected to do then. | |
