Then the tooltip is useless I think :P
Consider reopening the issue. Showing the big tooltip instead of the small one would be nice IMO.
If it’s considered obvious it can be hidden (we already hide many tooltips like that) but I noticed that many people don’t even know about that keyword so it’s good to keep it.
The tooltip and the hovercard are for two separate pieces of information and IMHO it doesn’t make much sense to show the issue information while hovering the fixes keyword.

Then why not merge them into one? Just place This pull request closes issue #... above the [tooltip] issue title.
I think its important to show this info it teaches people how to open a pull request that will close another issue

Why do merge into one? Just because they’re both important it doesn’t mean that they should be merged. One appears on the issue, like everywhere on the site; The other one appears on the trigger word. I don’t think it’s worth the time to merge them.
Sometimes I just hover on the Fixes text (the cursor is only a few pixels away from #...) and I'm annoyed that I have to move my mouse again just to point at #...
Anyway, if you think these shouldn't be merged, feel free to close this issue.
What you say makes sense and I too am mildly annoyed by the two different tooltips, but:
- Moving that information inside the large hovercard will get lost in the rest of the text
- It's such a nitpick that IMHO it's not worth the discussion/complexity of code and UI
Hmmm. Fair point 🙂 Anyway, I'll try to do this. I don't think this would be to complicated, but I may be wrong.
