I don't think it is necessary to define what a duplicate is for the whole network. Each community might have its own view and criteria when it comes to identifying duplicates and I think Codidact should give each community this freedom.

For example, some communities are more focused on solving problems, for other communities explanations might be more important. This will influence what duplicates are for each community.
