(this may need to be factored into multiple answers)

One of the most important ways in which you can help this site flourish is by making sure that the questions listed on it reflect the true interests of the community. A general procedure to follow if you have issues with a question is:

1. If it's a matter of scope, check this FAQ entry.
2. If the question is incoherent or unclear, suggest in comments ways in which the original poster (OP) might fix it.
3. If there's a disagreement, initiate a discussion on meta. Cross link the meta discussion and the original post.
4. If you have enough reputation, you may choose to vote to close the question. In that case, please post your reason as a comment and link to a meta discussion thread.
5. If the question is offensive, or spam, you can flag it and a moderator will deal with it.
6. If you wish to bring this question to moderator attention for any other reason, flag it.
