| Feb 6, 2013 at 8:18 | comment | added | John Gardeniers | @longneck, I've come across at least one instance where I voted to close a question as a dupe of another, without realising that other one had already been closed. | |
| Feb 5, 2013 at 14:05 | comment | added | longneck | I take exception to the idea of closing a question as a duplicate because it's off-topic. There's an off-topic close reason built-in that should be used. If you want to provide the question asker more detail as to why it was closed then add a comment. But using the duplicate option just because you can link to another post is a mis-use of the close system. (If that's not what you were suggesting, then disregard, but you did say "I would prefer to close those questions as a duplicate".) | |
