| Sep 18, 2014 at 17:20 | comment | added | Ward - Trying Codidact Mod | Yeah, I was surprised at how many of the old unloved Qs tell me "You've already voted to close this" But apparently not enough people reviewed or otherwise saw those Qs so my vote aged away. | |

| Sep 18, 2014 at 17:07 | comment | added | Ward - Trying Codidact Mod | The size of the close vote review queue indicates that we mostly agree on this, and so do at least a couple other people. We just need some more close-vote faeries to do their part before the auto-delete faeries come along. | |
| Sep 18, 2014 at 16:58 | comment | added | user9517 | If something is that critical and we can't solve it in 3 (years|months|weeks) then the OP should really be looking to the manufacturer for support. | |
| Sep 18, 2014 at 16:50 | comment | added | Ward - Trying Codidact Mod | I think it's probably ok to leave open an old unloved Q if it's a decent Q and still at least somewhat relevant. But the crappy ones should get nuked. | |
| Sep 18, 2014 at 16:48 | comment | added | Ward - Trying Codidact Mod | @Iain I tend to agree, but there's a Q from 2011 that shows up in the first search I've got in this answer, and the guy who posted it commented when it got some downvotes: serverfault.com/questions/250514/… | |
| Sep 18, 2014 at 16:08 | comment | added | user9517 | The query above currently return 2667 questions that the cleaning faeries failed to delete for one reason or another (mostly the number of comments). My view, anything unanswered and >12 months old isn't really useful now. | |
| Sep 18, 2014 at 16:03 | comment | added | user9517 | Ooh seach has ranges, I like this one which is all open, unanswered, 0 or lower votes from Jan 2009 to Aug 2013 answers:0 votes:-22...0 closed:0 answers:0 locked:0 created:2009-01..2013-08-31 | |
