The text that appears (presumably automatically) when a question is closed as a duplicate is the following:
"This question has been asked before and already has an answer. If those answers do not fully address your question, please ask a new question." (my emphasis)
This has the potential to confuse novice user. Sometimes, the user is not be satisfied with the answers to the previous question (i.e. he/she feels that they do not fully address the question), so naturally he/she asks a new question, only to see it promptly closed with a message telling him/her to ask a new question.
If possible, I would like to see this text split into two texts. One to be used when people asks questions that has been asked before by others, and another when a user repeats him/herself:
Text to show when closing duplicate questions because it previously has been asked by others:
This question has been asked before and already has an answer. If you feel those answers do not fully address your question, please ask a new question, take care explaining why the new question is different.
For people that repeat themselves, the closure message should be:
This question has been asked before and already has an answer. If you feel those answers do not fully address your question, please edit the old question. In the edit, make sure you expand the description so it becomes clear that the present answers do not fully address your question.
However, it is too complicated to have two different texts, they can be merged as follows:
This question has been asked before and already has an answer. If this is your question and you feel those answers do not fully address your question, please edit the old question. In the edit, make sure you expand the description so it becomes clear that the present answers do not fully address your question. If this is not your question, please ask a new question, take care explaining why the new question is different.
