Rename "Resolved note" to "Closed note"

Open Dimitar5555 opened this issue 1 year ago • 2 comments

Problem

It seems like new mappers think that pressing the "Resolve" button on a note automagically resolves the note which is not the case unfortunately.

Description

I think that "Close" should be a lot more clearer given that notes are divided into open and closed. Some other strings would also need to change (Resolved Note -> Closed Note, Comment and resolve -> Comment and close).

In some locales it's already labeled as "close".

If the user isn't really paying attention, they may click 'Close' to simply hide the note panel though. Perhaps it could be named a bit more explicitly as something like 'Mark as closed' or 'Mark as resolved'?

Related, might it make sense to require a comment of some sort before closing the note?
