Describe the issue or suggestion
On the Object.Finalize page. The "How finalization works" section mentions Close, capitalized and in a code format. If I understand correctly, from the Essential C# book. A close function means any method that manually frees resources. This is not a special type of method, a language feature. Merely suggested style (whether that is strictly enforced like PowerShell verbs, or not).
As this is a significant part of .NET, making it clear what is meant here could be improved. As is, the very verbose writing style without any further explanation, makes it seem like something it is not?
