In the old notices, on questions closed as off-topic, the notice would not only indicate all of the close voters who closed the question, but also the specific users who voted for specific canned reasons.
As an example:
closed as off-topic by User1, User2, User3, User4, User5
This question appears to be off-topic. The users who voted to close gave this specific reason:
- "Questions about [foo] are off-topic. Follow [bar] instead." - User2, User3, User5
In the above example, five users voted to close, but only User2, User3, and User5 voted for the specific "questions about [foo]" canned off-topic sub-reason; User1 and User4 voted for different close reasons.
You could also have the following case:
This question appears to be off-topic. The users who voted to close gave these specific reasons:
"Questions about [foo] are off-topic. Follow [bar] instead." - User2, User3, User5
"This question is [baz], which is off-topic." - User1, User4
This is the same as the first case, except User1 and User4 voted for a different (but same) canned reason. (Provided the winning top-level close reason is off-topic, only two votes are required for a given canned reason to show.)
However, in the new notices, it just shows the canned reason itself and the overall voters, and doesn't show which specific voters voted for which specific canned reasons. As far as I can tell, there is no longer a way to determine that on the site.
Why was this information removed? (I'm not requesting that it be added back here; I just want to know why it was removed. I occasionally found it useful to know in some cases if a specific canned reason, sometimes the sole one on a question, was there as a result of a minority of voters.)
