I pretty much gave up closing and close-vote reviewing during the recent Monica fiasco. Although I totally agree that closing bad questions is the right thing to do, and although I think I can safely …

Someone has been voting to close a ton of old questions in the past couple days. The review queue jumped from about 40 (for me) to over 100. I don't disagree with whoever (*cough* noob *cough*) is c …

If you really want to close something in the queue, you can click through to the Question and close it there. I know this isn't a good answer, since it's a pain, but it's what I plan on doing when I …

Recenly, in Chat it was suggested by an SF moderator: One side issue is, given the volume we're seeing now, I don't think users have enough daily close votes. The response by an SE employee was: …

Now that there's a re-written shopping question close reason, the generic "not relevant to system administration" close reason has moved up. Is it possible to move it back? i.e. so that it's just abo …

I've done the most close vote reviewing, and I vote to close a lot. As per some of the pre-election discussion, I think it would be useful to more precisely define (maybe with examples) what each of …

In most cases, I prefer #1 - if it's relevant, it's probably on-topic. I primarily vote that way, although I'm sure there are exceptions. I certainly don't vote to migrate very often.
