Why hasn't the option to hide certain questions (that are for example on the first page of a Stack Exchange site you regularly frequent) implemented yet?
24647
I was wondering how hard it would be to enable a 'hiding' option that let me hide certain questions that I don't want to see. That way if it was a very active question that I have no interest in, I could simply click hide and not see it anymore.  The only foreseeable reason why this couldn't be implemented completely with a Greasemonkey script is that it would be nice to get replacement posts. As of right now, even the hide tag feature simply hides the questions after they were loaded. If I hid a lot of tags, I would end up getting very few questions on the home page.  This is, of course, due to caching.

Wikipedia has a "" link on the front page that makes it easy for people to start exploring. It would be interesting to have something similar for Stack Overflow, perhaps with an additional (optional) constraint for "unanswered" questions. This might help eventually provide some attention to long-forgotten questions that weren't lucky enough to get an answer when they were new.

This seems to be happening on every SE site whenever I visit the &quot;Questions&quot; tab [on Chrome]: :   :  And basically every other site in the network... This happens in every sub-tab under the &quot;Questions&quot; tab:

Sometimes, especially with niche or otherwise tricky questions, I'd like to increase posts' visibility as much as possible. One approach I've taken for this is posting a link to the question as a facebook status update.  I think it would be great if that functionality were integrated directly with the question/answer posting form similar to the way I can currently share projects I follow/commit to on Area 51.

The list of questions I asked on my account page is nice, but I keep finding myself clicking on "next" because the newer questions are listed on later pages.  Assuming that it is more likely that a given user would want to check his newer questions for answers, wouldn't it be better if older questions were moved to later pages rather than newer?

Since I've a database systems examination in less than 3 hours (from now), I have been browsing Stack Exchange network for questions with normalisation and related tags. Most of the questions are now closed as  or others from the list.  Since, these questions are closed, no users are allowed to post answers to them (unless they are reopened). Why am I, then, allowed the option to protect such questions? Doesn't that beat the entire purpose behind "protecting" a question?

Based on my answer , I would like to propose the implementation of a tag black list.  The black list should contain a list of tags that should NOT be used on the site and disallow people with tagging rights to use these tags, for example the case of using the belongs-on tags.  I would also suggest increasing the tagging rep limit however this was previously covered .   Additional Options  As mentioned by  the list should only be accessible by moderators and possibly 10K moderators to ensure that the list is kept tidy. However for 10k moderators a voting process will be put in place to add a tag to the blacklist.  The list should also be updated when moderators merge tags. The removed tag should automatically be added to the black list.  Blacklisted tags can appear as strikethroughs on the tag field when editing or adding a new question, and be validated accordingly.  Additional Nice to Have  When tags are edited they should not bump questions, as this ends up creating a lot of noise on the homepage.

At the moment questions on the homepage are loaded by the top N most recent and then ones with a score of -4 or less are filtered out. This doesn't make much difference for a user who is logged in but consider anonymous users; their home page is only 15 questions in length. If someone was to edit several posts that bump to the top with a score of -4 or less then the home page looks tiny. At the moment on SFF, for example, the homepage for anonymous users only shows 9 questions:  At one point it only showed 3 questions (a few weeks back):  Can the filtering logic be changed to before the questions are loaded to appear on the homepage?

First it would be nice to search through the questions I've asked on SO to find a particular question.  Second, it would also be nice if the main search function at the top of the page had an "advanced search" option whereby you could specify things like tags and whether you're looking for answers or questions or both and perhaps specify a date-range.

I think it could be a useful feature. From an experienced usage of the site, I have the impression as if they didn't see that, but I am not sure. I know about : it asks for the visibility of the deleted comments. This is about the visibility of the previous versions of the edited comments.

A question with attachments, screenshots and/or long code, makes it vertically long and often difficult to read fast.  It would be nice to have a new kind of format, such as 'hideable', with a graphic button or a '+' / '-' sign, so you can add additional details, visible only on a click.

Today I exceeded 10K reputation on Stack Overflow, and I see deleted answers.  I am now faced with pages like  where half the answers are "deleted."    Among these are many non-answers deleted by diamond moderators, and a self-deleted answer deleted on Nov 25 '09.  I find this very distracting, especially in my chosen sort order of "oldest" where these deleted answers are NOT displayed at the bottom.  I wish to be able to hide deleted answers based on combinations of characteristics such as:   age since deletion deleted-by-owner deleted by diamond moderators zero undelete votes   This would be a setting every user could enable for himself.    Here are HTML excerpts that may be useful for userscript filtering.  This shows the code that appears for a moderator deletion, as well as the date stamp.  &lt;div class="deleted-answer-info"&gt;deleted by &lt;a href="/users/10936/dori"&gt;Dori&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span class="mod-flair" title="moderator"&gt;♦&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span title="2011-06-26 09:13:34Z" class="relativetime"&gt;Jun 26 at 9:13&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;   Here is the same class for deleted by owner:  &lt;div class="deleted-answer-info"&gt;deleted by owner &lt;span title="2009-11-25 19:12:11Z" class="relativetime"&gt;Nov 25 '09 at 19:12&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

Is it possible to delete or at least hide your own data explorer query when you know you've only been testing something and don't want it to show?

, for example, should certainly be flagged for spam. But to do so, I have to click the question title below and find the answer. Why can't there be a Flag button next to the Recommend Deletion button?

This is sort of a follow-up to a feature request that resulted in obscuring spam / offensive content from 10K-visible answers:   Suggest the same to be done for questions. As of now, spam questions (, ) preserve their titles and content. Suggest to revise the titles to something like     This question was marked as spam or offensive and is therefore not shown   And the text to something like:     This question was marked as spam or offensive and is therefore not shown - you can see the revision history for details".   Where "the revision history" links to the question revision history.    For those interested, here is a link to screen shots of how spam shines through my flagging summary page and is displayed to me when I click the link to one of deleted questions: .  For the sake of precision, flagger having less than 10K rep would see only upper screen shot - the one that lists question titles ("Call giRℒs blah blah &lt;phone number&gt;") - in their  page.

I am working with many questions and want a way by which users don't need to use the NEXT button for every question.  It should be flexible, so that the user can move any where on any question he wants and view a summary of the questions.   Maybe a slider or anything? Please give suggestions. Thanks in advance.
