| Feb 18, 2011 at 14:08 | comment | added | PearsonArtPhoto | I think that if there are elements that are specifically sci-fi, it should be fine to include them, but general questions should be directed to the writing group. There are definitely sci-fi/fantasy elements which could be discussed here (And quite frankly, if you avoid the phrase "I'm writing ...", might even pass the test) I'm posting my musings on the first question in the meta form. | |

Add link to the appropriate meta question.

| Feb 18, 2011 at 3:22 | comment | added | Tony Meyer | @gilles @morganpdx the catch is that you really need to know what the other site could consider on-topic, so you're not just dumping trash over the fence. Presumably this is where the moderator-only chat room gets used (i.e. you check first with a moderator there). | |
| Feb 17, 2011 at 20:51 | comment | added | user56 | @morganpdx: As long as either site is in beta, only moderators can migrate. When we get moderators, it would be a good idea for them to migrate questions that are good and are off-topic here and are on-topic there. | |
| Feb 17, 2011 at 20:46 | comment | added | morganpdx | We do seem to get a few of these...would it make sense for us to be able to migrate it to Writers.SE on close? | |
| Feb 17, 2011 at 20:04 | comment | added | user56 | @Mark: I think most of these questions wouldn't be specific to SF anyway, so there's no reason to accept them. Writers is indeed a good place for questions about writing SF. | |
| Feb 17, 2011 at 20:00 | comment | added | user366 | We already have a site for this, Writers.SE. | |
