| Oct 22, 2010 at 15:21 | comment | added | Pollyanna | Originally the requests for two seperate tabs were denied for two reasons - 1) they wanted people to go through the answered-with-no-upvotes and upvote/close/etc them, rather than skipping them and going straight to those without answers and 2) no one came up with a good name for the tab that differentiated it without being overly verbose or confusing. #1 reason is the primary motivation though - even if a good name was found, it is unlikely that the change would be made because we want to encourage people to review existing answers in their own interests. | |

I usually do a restricted search with just one or two tags when looking for unanswered questions, but I can see wanting to view them in all your tags. That could get pretty tedious if you have lots of tags marked interesting. | |

| Oct 20, 2010 at 18:41 | comment | added | Brad Mace | My initially thought is no-accepted-answers should be included, but with some mechanism that filters out the abandoned questions so that we're only seeing questions which do not have an accepted answer because there isn't a good answer yet. | |
