Duplicate functionality: list of self-closed tags
Closed, DeclinedPublic

Description

What is the difference between self-closed-tag in Special:LintErrors and deprecated-self-close-category‎ in Special:Tracking categories. On cswiki these two are just duplicate. Shouldn't these two functionalities be merged together somehow?

Yes the functionality is overlapping. However, Special:LintErrors shows more information like the tag name, and has more metadata like position and stuff. Linter is still a bit new, so I think its OK to have duplicate functionality. In the long term I think we should look into phasing out some of the tracking categories and using Linter instead.
