We had fixed this locally (by editing the close reasons here) a while back, but it's now fixed in the code.

  • The question post ["Drafting the Codidact Arbitration & Review Panel"](/questions/276642) is closed as a duplicate of the later ["Second Iteration of Drafting the Codidact Arbitration & Review Panel"](/questions/277346) and has a notice on it:
  • > **closed** as duplicate by luap42 on Aug 18, 2020 at 15:55
  • >
  • > This question has been answered before. See: [Second Iteration of Drafting the Codidact Arbitration & Review Panel](/questions/277346)
  • To my mind, at least, "before" sounds like the "Second Iteration of Drafting" question was answered before the "Drafting" question was asked. Or at the very least that it was answered before the "Drafting" question was closed. Neither of those is true.
  • I think the notice should say not "has been answered before" but "has been addressed elsewhere". This is more vague both as to timeline and as to whether or not the other question already has answers, which means it applies accurately to a broader of range of closureworthy questions; yet it is clear enough.

closure-as-duplicate post notice is inaccurate

To my mind, at least, "before" sounds like the "Second Iteration of Drafting" question was answered before the "Drafting" question was asked. Or at least that it was answered before the "Drafting" question was closed. Neither of those is true. I think the notice should say not "has been answered before" but "has been addressed elsewhere". This is more vague both as to timeline and as to whether or not the other question already has answers, which means it applies accurately to a broader of range of closureworthy questions; yet it is clear enough.
