It doesn't say price and shopping isn't hyphenated with anything. If we keep that in mind going forward that might help us reach a consensus. The example there was from Super User, and the current version, from their tour says "Shopping, buying or product recommendations." | |

If wording is agreed by the community, via the meta post, and it is something that it can be amended to (there are rules/guidelines/structure) then I see no reason why we shouldn't. | |
| Jun 21, 2018 at 19:09 | comment | added | paparazzo | @RoryAlsop Then please engage. There is a problem here. A single standard is not understood or applied. I don't agree with CB let's make up rules from the start. I don't think we need a split. I may not get what I want but can we agree there is a problem. All I assert is it should be consistent with higher level guidelines. | |

| Jun 21, 2018 at 18:40 | comment | added | paparazzo | @StrongBad Can a site mod change the wording? | |
| Jun 21, 2018 at 18:35 | comment | added | StrongBad | @paparazzo while not a mod of this site, the beta site and graduate site I am a mod on both have custom close reasons. This meta post talks a little bit about them. you can only have 3 reasons and it takes two mods to make a new reason/edit active. | |
| Jun 21, 2018 at 18:15 | comment | added | paparazzo | @CharlieBrumbaugh If you don't mind I will take it from a mod. No kidding a lot of custom close messages. Does not mean the site had that discretion. | |
| Jun 21, 2018 at 18:07 | comment | added | Charlie Brumbaugh | The question clearly states that according to a mod, we can change this, and if you look around the network, you will see custom close messages | |
