| Nov 10, 2012 at 21:15 | comment | added | jmort253 | Hi @Duncan, actually, closing doesn't mean a question isn't improvable. That's what deleted means. ;) This is why closed questions can still be edited. In short, closing a question gives you time to improve it without the stress of possibly invalidating answers. Hope this helps! | |
| Nov 10, 2012 at 18:09 | comment | added | GeneJ | Know that I don't have an interest personally in the pursuit of in-depth, front-end and low value/high risk research (ala, the black hole). I don't conduct that kind of research about my own family; I am unlikely to have the interest, time or inclination to otherwise volunteer such effort to others. | |
| Nov 10, 2012 at 17:18 | comment | added | GeneJ | Duncan, Closing a question is a big deal, a really big deal. Please don't assume I take it otherwise. (a) I have explained why I didn't edit the question already; (b) from the helpful exchanges we've had, it seems clear to me that you have a different notion for the direction of person specific questions. Go for it. | |
| Nov 10, 2012 at 16:29 | comment | added | GeneJ | @Duncan, Probably not an issue of one day or five days. (I was trying to respond ala your comment re comments, etc., esp. in light of Fortiter's answer.) In context here, the comments made were not sufficient for you to know how to fix the question (then or now). Having read your just earlier comment about the question, though, I think the crux of this is at a higher level than "this question" or whether comments were made. meta.genealogy.stackexchange.com/questions/1278/… | |

| Nov 9, 2012 at 19:35 | comment | added | user104 | @Duncan, I'd be as happy to see the question changed along the lines GeneJ suggests as along the lines I suggest. I also think the question about what we should do if problems are identified with a question but not addressed is a very pertinent one. I favour waiting a few days to give the questioner time to respond to concerns, but if nothing happens, I'd vote to close. | |
