Closing votes a few hours before edit

Please don't close any votes before 23:59 (UTC). In the last day, the end date gets highlighted in red in the vote box, people voting at the last minute is a common sight. (It's unlikely since the vote got already extended once, but still.) --Daniel Carrero (talk) 21:44, 5 February 2016 (UTC) --Daniel Carrero (talk) 21:44, 5 February 2016 (UTC)Reply

@Daniel Carrero, people extend a vote before it's up. Therefore, it only makes sense for a closing admin who thinks the vote should not be extended to be able to close it then also. Otherwise, he is allowing anyone who thinks it should be extended to do so without recourse. I'll comment further at [[Wiktionary:Votes/pl-2015-11/Short blocking policy]].​—msh210 16:50, 8 February 2016 (UTC)Reply
