I agree that those questions have issues. To me the main issue is the irrelevant narrative and commentary; a backstory can be provided, but it should come after presenting the actual question and it should be stripped of things like political commentary. This same narrative extends to the title, and it is indeed often not clearly linked to the actual question. (I do use tongue-in-cheek titles occasionally, but I always try to word them so that they give an idea of the question.)
If a question does not meet our quality standards, all of the reactions you mention are valid. I would also add another one:
- Leave a comment explaining what is wrong.
If the question contains a reasonable question, it is salvageable by editing. It is great if you can go and edit it to make it better, but do not take that as your responsibility. The responsibility is with the Original Poster (OP), and others can help if they feel like it. One of the most helpful things is to explain the cause of the negative reaction so that the OP may improve and ask better questions in the future.
I think it would be helpful to heavily edit a single example question to show what would make it have more focus. Of course the user can also comment whether such examples would be useful.
As always, I'm open to any suggestions.
