Question

I asked a question, but it doesn’t appear in My Questions. I’m new to the site, so I’m not really sure how this works. Did I do something wrong or is this normal?

Answer 1

The question was pending review in the approval queue. Questions from new users need to be manually approved by a staff member, jointly as an anti-spam measure and to stem the flow of rubbish content that new accounts often submit.

A flaw of the system is you can't relocate a question that is pending review until it is approved. However, I've approved your question, which is now available publicly. I apologise for the wait -- we're relatively understaffed at the moment, so this process can take several hours.

If you encounter this problem again, you can find a direct link to your question using your browser history, which you can access by pressing Ctrl+H if you're on a desktop browser.

How do you go on MY QUESTIONS?

Here: https://pokemondb.net/pokebase/user/Pokemon+24/questions
To go there manually, follow the steps:
1. Go to your account page by clicking your username. You can always do this using the yellow navigation box near the top of the page.
2. Click the grey button that says 'All questions'.
You have a separate question list for each section, so you will not find questions that you asked on the main section here on Meta.
