Migration of MSO links to MSE links
Jul 17, 2012 at 16:01 comment added Sepero (continued) Getting dups closed and linked to a consolidated answer takes effort, ultimately benefits everyone, and makes the whole website better. There is no reason it should be a thankless job. Stack Exchange is largely based around incentivization, and this seems to be something very worthy of being incentivized.
Jul 17, 2012 at 15:59 comment added Sepero I think you make great points there, Tom! And I really like the idea of rewarding people who tie duplicates together. The great thing about dup-linking is that it generally requires less skill/knowledge than fully answering questions. So it's open for opportunity to more people, but it still takes time and effort though! Dup-linking can serve to get value from people who may not know many answers, but are willing to take some time to find the answers for a little reward.
