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.

# 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***:
