| Dec 8, 2013 at 19:07 | comment | added | gravidThoughts | @Daniel Beck In my opinion the difference between major versions of an operating system merit a separate question. I can't provide evidence because MS does not make the necessary information publicly available. | |
| Dec 8, 2013 at 8:56 | comment | added | Daniel Beck Mod | @gravidThoughts For a lot of questions (probably the vast majority, unless about explicitly new/changed features), they're likely to be the same. There's no point in duplicating the same questions over and over for every new software version that comes out. One needs to identify which questions are version-specific and which aren't, of course, and take appropriate action, but just saying "I'm using a newer version, so it's not a duplicate!" (without providing some evidence that the issue in question actually has changed) doesn't cut it. | |

| Dec 7, 2013 at 1:58 | comment | added | gravidThoughts | Furthermore, is it clear to the OP that they should handle this through meta, as opposed to a prominent link for disputing that it is a duplicate? How many users actually know that meta exists? | |
| Dec 7, 2013 at 1:56 | comment | added | gravidThoughts | So why do we not use meta for edits? | |
| Dec 7, 2013 at 1:54 | comment | added | random Mod | The meta is the process. You post a link, describe why not, and the community come together to judge if they should overturn it or not | |
| Dec 7, 2013 at 1:50 | comment | added | gravidThoughts | To be clear, posting a question to meta is not a formalized process. You should be able to click on a link as the OP that allows you to provide evidence that the question is not a duplicate. This evidence should be reviewed through a formal process like many other stack x features... | |
| Dec 7, 2013 at 1:48 | comment | added | gravidThoughts | it is not formalized, you post a question to meta asking why your question was marked duplicate. If I edit a question what happens? | |
| Dec 7, 2013 at 1:47 | comment | added | random Mod | Why is the current method not efficient or effective? | |
