Post Beta Migration Options

Question

Now that the site has moved out of Beta, shouldn't we be getting some custom migration targets as per; Migration Targets

There's a question this morning that could use shifting according to the comments on it, but it gets a lack of consistency in close reasons because the appropriate targets are not listed.

Answer 1

To inform this discussion - during the site's lifespan so far there have been 235 migrations, broken down by site as below (for sites with more than 5 posts migrated).

Site	Number of Migrations
Law	88
History	37
Politics Meta	21
Skeptics	13
Expatriates	11
Travel	11
Medical Sciences	9
Personal Finance & Money	9
Economics	8
English Language & Usage	7

Answer 2

Judging from my own experience of where I migrate questions most often, I think that the most useful migration targets would be:

• Law - for any questions that ask "what is the law" and not "why is this the law". However, we need to be careful to not migrate away any questions that are on-topic because they are about laws which explicitly apply to politicians and political processes. Constitutional law, election regulations, and so on. See also Where/how do we draw the line between legal and political questions?
• History - for any questions about events which are so far in the past that they no longer directly affect contemporary politics. See also Cutoff between Politics and History.
