This bit is too broad:

  • working with services hosting or enabling your information technology

We still aren't wanting to accept such things as end-user shared-web-hosting questions. But excluding these in the list of topics is tricky.

I think this is a bit better:

  • deployment to and management of third-party provided information technology platforms

This still isn't perfect (and I'd like to hear ideas for improving it further) but the remainder of the proposal is such that I'd rather see it go in quickly and work this out later, than to hold off the whole thing until someone comes up with the perfect wording - which, if meta is any guide, will never happen.

In the end, such questions aren't a very large percentage of those we get, and they could be handled by directing such users to their end-user support channels via a close reason written for that purposea close reason written for that purpose or the "Other" reasonthe "Other" reason, or just migrating them out when warranted.
