I asked a question on a Stack Exchange site (not SO) that was immediately reported as a duplicate. It <i>wasn&#x27;t</i>, the duplicate wasn&#x27;t even close in multiple ways, and someone else jumped in to defend the question - he was then upvoted by several people. Despite this, there is a permanent prompt to either accept that the question is a duplicate, or to edit my question and explain why it isn&#x27;t.<p>This is nonsensical, because the reason that it isn&#x27;t a duplicate is inherent in the question itself. I&#x27;m not sure how I would edit it without writing a non-sequitur. Even though I&#x27;ve actually accepted a <i>correct</i> answer, I cannot get rid of the prompt.
