| Nov 9, 2011 at 19:26 | comment | added | user102937 | @PopularDemand: My best suggestion would be to change the name of the VLQ flag to "Unsalvageable by editing." | |
| Nov 9, 2011 at 19:17 | comment | added | jscs | @Popular: Your short version coincides with my current understanding, however the moderator newsletter that Robert linked is persuasive. Hope that you might find time later to post a full answer. | |
| Nov 9, 2011 at 19:13 | comment | added | Pops | @RobertHarvey, if people aren't using VLQ flags properly, shouldn't we be changing either their behavior or how VLQ flags work? (Or both?) | |
| Nov 9, 2011 at 19:11 | comment | added | Pops | Okay, short version: if the post is merely very bad, but not literally unsalvageable by editing, go ahead with your invalid flag flag. If you have the ability to improve it, do that instead of voting to close; if you need the OP to provide some piece of information, proceed with close-voting. | |

| Nov 9, 2011 at 18:57 | comment | added | user102937 | @Popular: Nobody uses the VLQ flag properly anyway. It's for posts that are unsalvageable by editing. Nobody uses it that way; they use it as a synonym for "Don't Like." | |
| Nov 9, 2011 at 18:47 | comment | added | Pops | Related: Is the “very low quality” flag necessary? (one of the few times I've found myself in disagreement with Anna Lear and Robert Harvey) | |
