There's discussion that can be had around this but for now here's some practical advice:

Seek out questions with no answers at all

Give an answer if you can help and if the question belongs here. For example:

• Is it allowed according to our FAQ? If not then vote to close as "off topic".

• Does it have a very low view count and/or is a problem that can't be reproduced by anyone else? Then it's unlikely to help others and should be closed as "too localized".

When voting to close, make sure it gets attention from other users. Post the question URL into our chat room or flag a moderator. (We'll create a special chat room for this if the main one gets too noisy.)

Seek out great answers in the unanswered questions list

There's not much to this, just choose questions from the list and learn something new about SharePoint! When you find great answers (and questions) vote them up. You may again find questions that don't belong here, so remember to vote to close when doing this as well.

There's discussion that can be had around this but for now here's some practical advice:

Seek out questions with no answers at all

Give an answer if you can help! Otherwise consider if the question belongs here according to our FAQ. If it has a low view count or is specific to one person's experience, then it's unlikely to help anyone else on the Internet and should be closed as 'too localized':

This question is unlikely to ever help any future visitors; it is only relevant to a small geographic area, a specific moment in time, or an extraordinarily narrow situation that is not generally applicable to the worldwide audience of the internet.

Vote to close and make sure it doesn't get missed:

• Post the question URL into our chat room so it gets attention from other users^ or
• Flag a moderator
