Since we don't have that many questions, I decided to take a couple hours of my time and put together some stats on close reasons.
Close reasons - June 2013
close reason not deleted deleted total
duplicate 48 8 56 (1.8%)
off topic 17 8 25 (0.8%)
not constructive 14 3 17 (0.6%)
not a real question 56 28 84 (2.7%)
too localized 18 20 38 (1.2%)
migrated (to meta) 0 18 18 (0.5%)
migrated (to superuser) 0 2 2 (0.1%)
migrated (to anime) 0 1 1 (0.0%)
totals 153 88 241 (7.8%)
The percents are out of all 3097 questions on the main site. That number includes deleted questions.
Samples of TL and OT usage to date
Since too localized is going away, and since custom off-topic reasons are intended to fill that gap, I thought it'd be nice to look at how we're currently using both close reasons. So, I made some lists. Since they're sorted numerically, items toward the end of the list are more recent. (Questions in code
have been deleted, so if you have less than 2000 reputation, you won't be able to see them.)
The following questions were selected randomly:
And the following questions are the twenty most recent:
As a reminder, we have a meta question for discussing custom close reasons here.
