##Make it clear that making an edit will cause the post to be reviewed for reopening

The existing notice already asks users to edit their question. Still, despite this, users are unaware of the fact that an edit will push their question into the Reopen Votes queue, and they believe that it will not accomplish much.

I'd recommend adding an extra sentence to the notice to the effect of:

Editing your question now will place it in a queue where users will consider it for potential reopening.

In addition to that, I'd also go a few steps further and make the notice smarter, e.g.

• "Your question has been edited; it is being reviewed for reopening."
• "Your question has been reviewed for reopening; however, at this time, the reviewers assessed that your question should not be reopened. See [here] for further steps you can take."
• "If you'd like this question to be reopened, please edit your question to address this issue, then follow the steps [here]." (in case the 5-day period has already lapsed)
