Prompted by this question

Are we going to have an option on the close menu to migrate questions to Super User (if appropriate)?

Now that a better "off topic" migration dialog has been implemented - Adapt close dialog UI for upcoming avalanche of StackExchange 2.0 graduates - when are the Super User and (possibly) Web Masters options going to be added to ours.

    I hope so. If they can migrate here it makes sense for it to be a two-way street. Oct 1, 2010 at 15:42
  • Chris - Wouldnt some of the above listed items be more apt for Software Recs?

  • @Alex - this was written long before Software Recommendations existed, so you're probably right. However SR is quite strict about what's on topic, so it probably wouldn't work if it was a standard migration target.

Possibly, but to make a case for migration we need to see evidence that these questions are asked in some quantity here and then closed.

So.. start linking :)

edit: based on your links, I think we can support migrations between:

Web Apps -> Super User
Web Apps -> Pro Webmasters

everything else should just be flagged for moderator attention and arbitrarily migrated on a case-by-case basis.
