I find many questions which are similar to my question but not exactly what i want to ask. Some people feel it duplicate so they vote down or sometimes it leads closing a question.
I can edit a question. But I guess, this is just to modify the way of writing to make it more clear for readers.
Can I add more points to the question? So the duplicity can be reduced and all the readers can answer a single question perfectly. But
- It may confuse the user who asked the question
- It can make the question pretty complex and lengthy
- Reputation of user who asked the question will be affected only (due to any up vote or down vote).
Now please tell me how to ask a question which is similar to other questions but not exactly similar?
