When voting to close a question and choosing the custom comment option, you're given a text field in which to write your reason(s). In the Web interface, that field includes the helpful default text:

I'm voting to close this question because

...and one can simply complete the sentence.

When used by a moderator, though, that language seems a little off. A moderator's vote is binding and immediate. While technically correct, I think it would better represent reality if for diamond moderators, the default text was:

I'm closing this question because

    Oh definitely. I do this all the time manually, if I remember to do it at least. Commented Sep 4, 2015 at 14:43

    Yep - I usually delete the whole sentence and write whatever my reason is. Commented Aug 24, 2016 at 17:49
