During my time using GIS SE I have seen quite a few questions posted that attract attention, often as comments as people try to get the Original Poster to elaborate as their initial question does not have enough information. Then suddenly the original poster will say something like "worked it out, wrong file/field name" in the comments.
So everybody has wasted their time and the question really does not have an answer. In this scenario I would have expected the original poster to delete their question as it adds absolutely nothing to the knowledge base that GIS SE trying to build. Typically such posters are unconcerned about reputation or contributing to the greatgreater good so these questions hang around, why would anyone come searching for an answer when the final solution was the original poster actually paying attention to their code?
So I would like to have the power to simply suggest that this question gets deleted. Currently under the close options I can't choose an option to say "to be deleted, pointless question". This is not the same as unclear, duplicate, too broad or off-topic. Could these choices be expanded to include "immediate deletion, pointless question"?
