Provide RSS feed for questions with >n votes or replies?

Question

I'd be interested in an RSS feed for questions with at least a certain number of votes or replies. This might be implemented as a GET parameter appended to any feed URL.

For example, the following feed might return PHP articles with at least 20 votes: stackoverflow.com/feeds/tag/php?v=20

The following feed might return jQuery articles with at least 15 replies: stackoverflow.com/feeds/tag/jquery?r=20

This would purposely reduce the list of PHP articles for users interested in reading, but not necessarily replying to, specific topics.

Answer 1

Well, we do now have much better tag-based feed support:

Any way to get an RSS feed of 'newest' tagged questions?

what you're describing I am not sure we will do, but there is some pointlessness around "give me the 30 highest voted questions in [foo] tag" that I might add more to, later..

Answer 2

This is possible now thanks to a flexible little app I created called stack2rss that converts API requests into RSS feeds.

A feed that does what you've described looks like:

http://quickmediasolutions.com/stack2rss/stackoverflow/questions?tagged=php&sort=votes&min=20&body=true

Here's essentially what is does:

• Takes all questions tagged 'php'.
• Sorts them by votes.
• Filters the results to only include ones with vote count >20.
• Returns the post body in the feed.

Hope that helps!
