I use this for the standard FAQ-prohibited question types when I moderate, just to ensure that the person understands why the question was closed, and where to find more information.  As "new user experience" is a topic of discussion recently, I thought sharing was in order.

I've modified the "incorrect use of answer space" comments the script provides, but most of mine are moderator-specific (ie, I talk about the moderator action I'm going to take).  If there's interest, I can try to make them more generic for others to use.
