Aug 18, 2021 at 15:48 comment added gnometorule @GoodDeeds: My question was two-fold (no closure reason/why do I see the text), and you did answer my second question. So thanks again!
Aug 18, 2021 at 15:46 comment added GoodDeeds I see, thanks, so I misunderstood the focus of the question. I have retracted my duplicate close vote.
Aug 18, 2021 at 15:45 comment added gnometorule @GoodDeeds: Thanks again! That explains the text. That said, what was missing the most was giving a closure reason to OP. Instead of the new boiler plate for, say, shopping question, it just curtly said “This question is off-topic” (off-topic being a link to a list of all closure reasons).
Aug 18, 2021 at 15:38 comment added GoodDeeds It comes from the privileged-user guidance here: academia.meta.stackexchange.com/a/4711/68109 . This is not the same text the OP will see, they see the post-owner guidance text. The general post notice is seen by everyone, which is the "curt" part.
Aug 18, 2021 at 15:37 comment added gnometorule @GoodDeeds: Thanks! It might be related to system changes, but the displayed text (which gives no reason at all) is not part of the new boiler plates, for all I know.
