Should I vote to reopen the question so it can be closed again but for a different reason? [duplicate]

When reviewing posts in the Reopen Queue I found this question.

It was originally not in English and therefore closed for:

Closed. This question needs details or clarity.

The OP then added the English translation and some other user commented on it and suggested a duplicate.

What should I do?

  • Leave closed - the question is not particularly useful, requires links editing, it can only serve as a signpost to the duplicate
  • Edit and reopen - IMHO the reason is no longer valid, so is can be closed again but this time as the duplicate

Note: I've seen the following posts Should I vote to reopen when I believe the reason for closing no longer applies? and How can I get a question to be closed for a different reason than what it was originally closed for? but they didn't help me enough with this particular case.
