text: Well, the least would be that you entered some comment before closing a note. The way you do it looks like you actually made the appropriate changes while you did not.
  
  Secondly, I don't see how it hurts when notes stay there a bit longer. I'm not only talking about my note here but also about a lot of others I've seen you close.
  Even if no one got around to do something about a note in 2 years someone might do it after 3. So why close them? If you personally only want to look at newer notes use tools like https://ent8r.github.io/NotesReview/.
