So for whatever reason I was going through  looking for questions that had slipped through the retag/migrate net. I found , which clearly didn't belong on SO, and probably would be migration-rejected here due to low quality; however, I can't custom-close-vote (not enough rep), and flags don't have a custom option. I flagged it for migration in the hope that it would be processed correctly.  I then came across , and decided to use the same tactic -        No, I haven't! (Apologies for the poor freehand-circle quality; the Surface RT is not very conducive to drawing them.)  Have I done something wrong and been covertly banned from raising close flags? Is there a new one-outstanding-close-flag limit? Is there a new no-more-close-flags-while-you-have-an-outstanding-migration-flag limit? Is this just a plain old bug?    Update: Turns out I flagged it two weeks ago, and the flag was still waiting for review. *facepalm*

After I  and flagged some spam on the , for a poorly-understood reason, I went back to one of the questions I'd flagged and opened the flag dialog. There, I saw something of little importance, but of less than perfect... perfection:        I had flagged  as spam. I had not flagged the question as "not welcome in our community". And, for what it's worth, I had not added a custom flag, so... that part's right.

I flagged a post and (choose one)   my flag was marked as helpful, yet nothing was done my flag was marked as declined, yet the post was deleted/edited/closed   Why?

I just flagged a comment as "obsolete" in . To my surprise, it was deleted immediately, just after pressing "Flag Comment".  Now I see it in my flag summary as helpful:        Does this mean that obsolete flags are somehow handled automatically? I went through  but could not find any description on this.

Are moderator tools, specifically flagging or voting to close going to be implemented in the Android app? If we have a dispute, we should at least have the flag option.  What about share option? If we would like to share a question, we could long press on the question title, and the question title, excerpt, and short URL copied to clipboard.

This is normally what I see when flagging a post:   Which then provides the following options:    I have come across this problem before. Where I have wanted to flag a question, as not belonging here, but only have limited options.    When this happens, I use a custom flag and write in the reason, but am not happy doing so.  Is this a bug?   What is the best thing to do?

Questions that have been deleted, which I voted to close in addition to flagging, are showing my close votes as if they were flags on MSO.  For instance         and         Answers which I've flagged as spam don't show this...  The same was   when things were broken but without the close reason.    This is now broken again, save on Stack Overflow not MSO:

Just curious. Generally when I see a closed or migrated question, the reasoning seems sound. This one caught my eye, however, and made me wonder if I've been wrong in my assumptions.    What were the criteria here for closing the question as "Off-Topic", as opposed to migrating to SF? Seemed a valid question to me, yet it was closed just a day after it was asked. Is the lack of immediate answers the problem?  Not trying to challenge the decision - as I said, just curious :-)

I flagged  five days ago because it seems off-topic to me. The question has been closed by a moderator few minutes after.  However my flag has not been marked as helpful (or declined, or disputed) in my flags summary page. It's just like the flag has not been taken into account (screenshot below).    Is a moderator can explain me?

TL;DR: Give the belongs on another site in the SE network option to normal users too, generating a moderator flag.    Often questions are posted on the wrong site on the Stack Exchange network (for volume reasons, most often at Stack Overflow). Then they need to be closed as off-topic, and optionally migrated to a better site.  The "close as off-topic" (or "flag as off-topic", if you don't yet have closing rights) dialog has up to five migration targets (the most likely migrations) build in, and if at least four of the five closers agree on one of them, the question will get migrated there.  Moderators see in this dialog actually one more option:   belongs on another site in the Stack Exchange network   together with a text field which allows selecting a site by its name.    This option can be used to migrate a question to any site. We are normally using this only if it is either a really clear case that the question is on-topic at the target site, or we have asked a moderator of the target site. (Or a moderator of the target site has flagged the question at our site.)  Normal users don't have this option: They can only flag/vote to close as "off-topic", and use the "flag for moderator attention" general reason, and input a reason in the free-form text field:    Most of my flags in the last months on Stack Overflow are actually of this type (mostly for Crypto.SE and TeX.SE).  My feature proposal (actually, three of them)   Add this belongs to another site option to the GUI for normal users, too. Make this generate a normal "off-topic" close vote (if the user has close-voting rights, of course), together with a canned flag for moderators attention (which will be visible in the 10k mod tools).  (So such a vote will not generate a migration by itself, even if five users have the same idea.)  This should also be a possible flag option on questions which already are closed as off-topic. On the moderator side, make it a tiny bit easier to decide about the migrations, and make them happen:   Show in the flag list if a moderator of the target site flagged for migration (these are "good" and need not be checked, other than for off-topic-ness on the source site). (E.g. show a diamond beside the name?) If a question was flagged this way for migration, add the target site as an option to the moderator's close-dialog (so no searching is necessary). (Allow migrating questions which are already closed as off-topic, without reopening.)    Related:  - Waffles' answer says such a search box was intentionally omitted so people don't have to do the hard work. So now moderators have to do this hard work instead (for cases other than the five ones listed). I'm not sure this is really better.

I noticed that on both sites where I am a moderator the flag counter is occasionally not showing any flags even when there are flags in the queue. A refresh of the page leads to the correct flag count to be displayed. I noticed this happening when I visited the site for the first time in a few hours, when I was recently active on the site the counter seems to stay accurate.

I was looking for a possible duplicated question about  in , then looked using the Big G! since the integrated search didn't give me any useful result (laugs) then I found the , but in Stackoverflow! Then, I proceed to flag as off-topic, but since "It's too old to migrate" I don't have the option to do so...  So, my question is, should I leave it like that? Or the question is better in UL (also on topic, just read the question)? Any guidance to this young pada-wan is greatly appreciated.

First time I had to use the offensive flag. The answers were obviously offending/spam but it took quite a while to delete them. I was interested in how long it actually took, because an off-topic question posted later got closed much faster.  Instead of finding this information, I noticed the offensive (and also spam) flag's description is formatted very different. It also contains less information.      "flagged as" seems redundant - I know that I flagged it, and I'm on the flag summary page after all. The normal flagging doesn't tell me that. It is Helpful, but a normal flags are helpful. (fixed) There is no information about the time I flagged it. The normal flag's "helpful" text contains a tooltip showing the time of it's acceptance, the offensive/spam flags don't.   I like that it's red, but I think the format should be more like that of the other flags. It should show the time somewhere.

This morning (it's about six AM here) I find that I can no longer submit close votes; the link just jumps to the beginning of the page.  I'm on iOS, using a third-party browser called Grazing, but a brief check with Mobile Safari shows the same problem there.   Here on Meta, where my score is much lower, I only get a "delete" link on my own question, and that works fine. (Oops :-))   Update: As per comments, this affects the "flag" link, too, which doesn't even scroll to the top of the page. Update 2: Latest comment suggests this affects Android, too. Update 3: This also affects desktop computers when viewing mobile (when you click "mobile" in the footer) Update 4:  mentions Windows 8, too; simply deleting platform-specific tags

If I (as a user with vote-to-close privileges) click &quot;flag&quot; on a question, I see the ability to flag as &quot;does not belong here, or is a duplicate&quot;.  Is this a ? I'm quite sure I didn't used to be able to see that.   Anyway, if I use that (&quot;does not belong here, or is a duplicate&quot;) option and VtC the question, take a sip of my tea and continue about my daily business, upon submitting the &quot;flag&quot;, the counter for the &quot;flag&quot; button gets set, not the &quot;close&quot; button.   This would seem like a definite .

I spotted a  (10k-only by now) and when I went to flag it, the flag dialog told me that I'd already flagged it as VLQ:    The thing is, I'd never seen this post before. And a look at the flag history in my user profile confirms that I haven't flagged a post since yesterday:    Certainly, well before the 2015-02-04 05:36:21Z time of Mr. Miracle's post.  I was able to reproduce this on SO from the VLQ review queue: when you're presented with an answer, click on link at the right side of the page, then click flag. You get the "you have already raised this type of flag" message on either the "it is not an answer" or "it is very low quality" options, I gather depending on the original flag that pushed the post into the VLQ queue.

Looking at my flagging history, I see quite a few (got 8 now) active ones dated as far back as August 9.  Sometimes a flag gets addressed almost instantaneously, other times it just sits &amp; wait there.  Is it because I tend to flag edge cases /debatable stuff (like  questions , or questions posting working code and asking for a code review, which is suitable for CodeReview.SE)? Or am I "flagged" as a trigger-happy flagger and my flags are just being ignored unless they're obviously warranted?  I'm sure it's only because there's too many flags and not enough flag reviewers (is that 10K+ users or just diamonds/mods?), but what would be a "normal" delay for a flag to be reviewed?  --  As I was tagging this question, the  tag came up as a suggestion; this makes me wonder, have I shot myself in the foot? Where can I see my "flag weight" and what's an ok value? Lastly, what can I do to "flag better"?

TL;DR: Grant 500+ rep users (except the OP) the privilege to flag a question for reopening. Currently, you can flag a question for closing, and it automatically enters the  review queue, where 3K+ users can vote to close (or to leave open) the question.  However, there is no ability to flag a closed question for reopening. A &lt;3K user must either:  Flag for diamond moderator attention, causing more workload for the moderators. Create a meta-post on the question, requesting for the question to be reopened. ...  Feature Request Add the ability to flag a post for reopening, just as you can flag for closing. The UI of the flagging dialog for closed post could look like this:  A reopen flag would instantly bring the question into the  review queue, where 3K+ users would vote to reopen (or to leave closed), just like when a reopen vote is cast on a question. This option would be available to everybody except the OP of the question, since he can bring his question to the review queue by editing it. A reputation limit could also be added to prevent abuse, e.g., .
