Gold tag-badge holders are now able to instantly close duplicate questions.
As the only holder of the wireless-networking gold tag-badge you are now our resident expert on closing duplicate questions within that tag.
Congratulations!
Use your new power wisely.
The rules are:
- You can instantly close as a duplicate any question that was originally asked with a tag you have a gold badge for.
- You can instantly reopen any question closed as a duplicate that was originally asked with a tag you have a gold badge for.
- You can only close or reopen a given question once (this hasn't changed).
- If you get in a fight with someone over whether a question should be closed, moderators will be notified and they'll
hit everyone with hammerslock everything down and tell you to go home.
Importantly you are given this power because:
If you have a gold badge in your tag, you know what's been asked before, in several iterations, and where to find it.
If you have a gold badge in your tag, you usually have a great deal of knowledge about the topic and can consider technical accuracy along with perceived quality.
