Due to its massive (and growing) size, there are a lot of low quality-quality questions and answers appearing on Stack Overflow.

I'm concerned that an influx of low-quality questions and answers create a lot of work for our users and moderators and can potentially damage our expert Q&A ecosystem.

Is there some way we can prevent these low-quality questions and answers from appearing on the site?

So:

  1. What current processes are used to block these low-quality questions and answers?

  2. If the current processes are inadequate, how can they be improved?
