The current text is "marked as duplicate by [...] This question has been asked before and already has an answer. If those answers do not fully address your question, please edit this question to explain how it is different or ask a new question." | |
| Apr 10, 2017 at 23:36 | comment | added | Cai | Figured it out... questions closed as a duplicate that already have an upvoted answer get the "asked before... ask a new question" notice; and questions closed with no (or non-positive scoring) answers get the "exact duplicate" notice. No idea what the reasoning for that is but it's been asked already | |

| Apr 10, 2017 at 22:45 | comment | added | Cai | No idea what the deal is with these notices but it's not consistent... see this which was closed a few hours ago and still has the "asked before... ask a new question" wording. | |
