Nov 5, 2012 at 14:56 comment added gerrit @YannisRizos, your answer helped me, I just find answering a question at odds with closing it as too localised, as I'm sure I'm not the only one with this question. I can indeed see the reopen vote on my own question (incidentally, the reopen vote is my own ;).
Nov 5, 2012 at 14:53 comment added yannis And I hope my answer helped you understand the network and its community a little bit better ;) Also, I was under the impression that as the OP you can see close/re-open votes on your own question, isn't that the case?
Nov 5, 2012 at 14:52 comment added gerrit To me it's helpful to understand the Stack Exchange network and its community (I don't have the rep. to either view close votes or to vote for reopening except on my own questions).
Nov 5, 2012 at 14:48 comment added yannis "This question is unlikely to help any future visitors..." imho, both this and the other question aren't particularly helpful to anyone. In any case, there's a re-open vote already ;)
Nov 5, 2012 at 14:47 comment added gerrit @YannisRizos That is completely different from the text below the closing reason, quoting again: This question is unlikely to help any future visitors; it is only relevant to a small geographic area, a specific moment in time, or an extraordinarily narrow situation that is not generally applicable to the worldwide audience of the internet.. Isn't that demonstrably false?
Nov 5, 2012 at 14:45 comment added yannis Locking also prevents voting, editing and flagging. Anyway, I don't really feel either discussion is particularly interesting or useful and I won't be voting to re-open. Others, of course, might disagree.
Nov 5, 2012 at 14:44 comment added gerrit @YannisRizos Isn't that what locking a question is for? I thought closing a question implied the question shouldn't have been asked in the first place.
Nov 5, 2012 at 14:42 comment added yannis The too localized closure on the duplicate just prevents further answers, because there's absolutely no reason for further answers.
Nov 5, 2012 at 14:40 comment added gerrit Closers, you've marked this as a duplicate of another question which was closed as too localised. Doesn't one contradict the other? Too localised means This question is unlikely to help any future visitors. In my opinion, the fact that I was looking for the same proves that it is not too localised! So I think it's reasonable to have at least one of the two open, and IMNSHO my question is slightly better phrased...
