We're missing a few important entries from the current closing process so I'm rewriting some of the current reasons. I've just asked the other mods to read over them but thought a bit of public input couldn't hurt either!

Most of these are based on what we've done in the past and on existing meta subjects about this.

 - Questions that don't involve Ubuntu are off-topic here. Questions about other **Unix or Linux** distributions should be asked on [Unix & Linux Stack Exchange](http://unix.stackexchange.com), questions about **Microsoft Windows** should be asked on [Super User](http://superuser.com) and questions about **Apple operating systems** should be asked on [Ask Different](http://apple.stackexchange.com/).

 - **Bug reports** and **problems with the development version of Ubuntu** should be [reported on Launchpad](http://askubuntu.com/questions/5121/how-do-i-report-a-bug) so that developers can see, track and fix these issues.

 - This questions is about an [**End of Life** Ubuntu Release](https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases). Those are no longer supported and are therefore off-topic. To upgrade, see: [How to install software or upgrade from old unsupported release?](http://askubuntu.com/questions/91815/how-to-install-software-or-upgrade-from-old-unsupported-release)

 - Questions describing **a problem that can't be reproduced** and seemingly went away on its own are off-topic as they are unlikely to help future readers.

Of course there are four there and [I'm still waiting to hear back to see *if* we can do that][1] but let me know if you think any of these need improving and how you would do it. There is a character limit (and the first is 1-char off it!) so remember we can't fit a whole book in these things.

These are compatible with existing reasons so assuming I don't hear anything super-negative back, we'll try to get these through in the next couple of days. Hopefully along with an EOL entry too.
