That depends on what was wrong with the question. The flag will tell you what you did incorrectly (i.e. posted profanity, multiple exclamation marks, poor grammar, false information, etc.) so your best bet would be to see what the flag says and fix the answer. When in doubt, contact the supervisor.

A question is flagged when there is a problem that needs to be looked into and possibly corrected.

Some questions are flagged by automatic bots, some questions are flagged by people that see something odd but don't know enough about the topic to fix it right themselves, some questions are flagged for future deletion if they can't be salvaged, etc.

If your answer is flagged it means that a member or a bot thought that something about your answer needed improvement.

How do flagged questions and featured questions differ?

Flagged Questions vs Featured QuestionsThe basic difference is that a flagged question has already been answered, although the answer needs improvement of sorts, and therefore gets "flagged." A featured question, on the other hand, is a question of interest that has not yet been answered (the minute a featured question does get answered, it automatically gets removed from the list of Featured questions).(For more information, see the Related questions.)
