| Sep 9, 2014 at 0:40 | comment | added | user40980 | @Telastyn one doesn't even need to check the flags. Just as We've got our into in the help/on-topic, so does Stack Overflow - they've spelled out all the close reasons there. The one in this specific question is the first listed reason. Anyone doing a migration (or flagging it, or commenting it as such) should be familiar with that page on the target site. | |

| Sep 8, 2014 at 19:40 | comment | added | gnat | @Telastyn FWIW if one knows the custom close reasons at SO, this is not really hard (their reasons are definitely simpler than ours... and one about off-site resources is even better spelled:). And with rep over 15 one can flag to close at SO which works almost as good as VtC, at least in clear cut cases | |
| Sep 8, 2014 at 19:37 | comment | added | Telastyn | While I agree with @gnat below, I have to question this a little bit. Do you really want me (and my stellar 328 SO rep at time of writing) to proxy moderate your site when I couldn't close the same question on SO? | |

| Sep 8, 2014 at 15:28 | comment | added | ChrisF Mod | I must admit that this raised a wry smile from me given the propensity of regular SO users to migrate crap to us when the option was available. That's not to say that I'm happy with crap being migrated (speaking as an SO mod), but you know I'm only human. | |
| Sep 8, 2014 at 15:18 | comment | added | ratchet freak | @gnat in this case they don't differ too much: 257 with 19% rejected reported on SO | |
| Sep 8, 2014 at 15:12 | comment | added | gnat | @ratchetfreak worth noting that there is a known issue of migration stats being not consistent between sites - that is, 10Kers and moderators at SO may see different numbers at their side than we see here from our side | |
| Sep 8, 2014 at 15:04 | comment | added | ratchet freak | for the 10k+ people you can see the migration stats (currently 258 with 13% rejected in the last 90 days) | |

| Sep 8, 2014 at 14:32 | comment | added | user40980 | For this question, unfortunately I was too slow in writing the 'please code this quickly to kill a migration' flag (it was migrated before I was able to complete it). Unfortunately, the 'just send it over the wall and let them deal with it' is an endemic problem across Stack Exchange sites. | |
