Aug 28	comment	Choosing the right one for self-defense purpose? That doesn't narrow it down much from the other question that was asked, which despite not explicitly mentioning these still covers the same territory.
Aug 28	comment	Choosing the right one for self-defense purpose? A couple of things. One is that I hadn't been pinged (generally report things once you feel they are ready to be reopened), so I hadn't actually taken another look at it. Another is that it is still a very broad question with vague specifications that isn't clearly different from the other question that was asked in this regard. The major distinguishing points seem to be that he mentions a bunch of different things that are "widely" available (as opposed to just asking generally) and says that he "wonders" whether a "throwing or grappling art would be a better choice."
Aug 26	comment	Choosing the right one for self-defense purpose? So fix it quickly so that it can be reopened quickly.
Aug 26	comment	Choosing the right one for self-defense purpose? Fix it, then it can be reopened and can be answered. That's why it is a community site with edit privileges. The fact that I "don't know how Singapore makes it different" is part of the problem in that such needs to be spelled out in the question, and it isn't even clear that locality is at all the focus in what @KyawThurein is asking about.
Aug 25	comment	Choosing the right one for self-defense purpose? 1) That it is based in Singapore is not mentioned in the questions 2) It is not clear how that makes it any different. It needs to be improved. If it can be improved and made into a great question, I can happily reopen it.
Aug 25	comment	Choosing the right one for self-defense purpose? Incidentally, I am closing this as currently it isn't a particularly good fit to a Q&A format and may very well be an exact duplicate. If it can be modified and/or clarified to the point where it can be reopened then it is easy to do so.

Aug 19	comment	If I'm worried about concussions, should I train tae kwon do, or karate, or neither? You might find How to select the right Aikido dojo, What characteristics should I look for in a sensei? and What martial art should I start with? useful.
Aug 14	comment	How do you take Notes on techniques you've learnt in class? "What are the disadvantages or advantages of taking notes after class?"
Aug 14	comment	How do you take Notes on techniques you've learnt in class? Can we rephrase the question slightly to make it less of a poll of the community?
