Voting to Close is the process by which users can vote to close a question. You gain the ability to cast close votes when you reach 3,000 Reputation.
Questions should be closed by casting close votes if:
they are sufficiently similar to existing questions and would be answered identically to them
they are unclear, too broad, or otherwise problematic to identifying the problem in a way that can be properly addressed by answerers
they are sufficiently off-topic, as outlined in the help center
For more information on the closing system, see the help page on closing questions.
