  • In my opinion the following should be the only default close reason for any Codidact community:
  • - CoC (without [the problematic sentence](https://meta.codidact.com/q/278181)) violation
  • - obvious spam, like posting nonsense things or promoting
  • - (**obviously**) off-topic post.
  • I think other possible reasons (like "opinion-based" or "needs more effort") should be determined by the community itself; such reasons may not be appropriate for each community. For example, opinion-based posts are unlikely suitable for a math community, but they may be suitable for an interpersonal skills community.

  • - obvious spam, like posting nonsense things or promoting
  • - (**obviously**) off-topic post
  • - too vague such that **no one** can answer
  • - (**exactly**) duplicate post
  • (Please note that "what is 1+1?" is not an exact duplicate of "what is 1+2?" but "How can we find the sum of 1 and 1?").

What are the close reasons on Codidact?
In my opinion the following should be the only default close reason for any Codidact community:

- CoC (without [the problematic sentence](https://meta.codidact.com/q/278181)) violation 
- obvious spam, like posting nonsense things or promoting
- (**obviously**) off-topic post.

I think other possible reasons (like "opinion-based" or "needs more effort") should be determined by the community itself; such reasons may not be appropriate for each community. For example, opinion-based posts are unlikely suitable for a math community, but they may be suitable for an interpersonal skills community.
