 There are currently [https://github.com/WordPress/wordpress-develop/pulls
 over 2,000 open pull requests on GitHub for wordpress-develop]. Many of
 these were likely left open after a fix was merged into SVN.

 There should be a GitHub Action that parses commit messages for fixed
 ticket numbers and searches all open pull requests for references to that
 ticket in the description. This is
 [https://make.wordpress.org/core/handbook/contribute/git/github-pull-
 requests-for-code-review/ documented as a requirement in the handbook for
 using GitHub for contributing]. These tickets should be closed with a
 comment detailing why it was closed.
