Only answers can be "Flagged", therefore non-answered questions cannot be flagged.
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.)
What do you do if you find a flagged question because of cyberbulllying?
When a question is flagged for cyberbullying, a Supervisor will see it. So if it is a question, just skip it.However, if the cyberbulling is in an answer, visitors can also edit the answer, remove the cyberbullying answer, and post a corrected answer. But if the question bullies too, just leave both alone--a Supervisor will handle it.
What does it mean when a question is flagged?
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.
Where does the link -Flagged for Improvement- lead to?
It doesn't actually 'lead' anywhere. 'Flagged for improvement' simply puts a marker in the question - to signify either the question or the answer needs editing. It's like a teacher putting a sticker with 'see me' written on a pupils work.
