The 45-days includes a buffer so that I can grab a nice, clean 30-day period in the middle or so.” —, the effect on the analysis will probably be very minimal. | |

I've just confirmed that the check is votes >= 3. There was a question with 3 close votes (before config was changed), I voted and it was closed. I believe it's a corner case, but I'm curious to know how/if those cases of questions closed with 4 votes will interfere in the analysis

| May 4, 2021 at 15:43 | comment | added | Catija | I'm getting it confirmed but we only check the status when new votes happen, so the most likely outcome is that the next vote to close will satisfy the requirements and cause the post to be closed. That means that some posts with 3 already may end up aging out if they don't get those final votes. Hopefully that won't happen much? | |

Hopefully the check is closeVotes >= 3 and not closeVotes == 3, or else infinitely many close votes may accumulate on a question! But in seriousness, I believe the threshold is checked at each vote and the question becomes closed once the amount of close votes is over the threshold.
