Ok, so the responses to my previous question ( http://meta.drupal.stackexchange.com/questions/288/what-can-we-do-about-our-answered-ratio) make it clear that the users who actually read here on meta know what the problems are and how to fight them.

To summarize:

• Vote, vote, vote! (as a question with an upvoted answer counts as answered)
• Better question titles ("How to do X?" instead of "Why does my code not work?")
• In general, trying to ask more general, "re-usable" questions (Interestingly, the faq at http://drupal.stackexchange.com/faq kinda suggests otherwise: "practical, answerable questions based on actual problems that you face" - Sounds like it is not allowed to ask questions that do not pose a direct, practical problem to me?)
• Maybe be a bit more strict on questions which are too localized, the "Help me with my exact problem"-questions that can't be improved by giving a better title and similar edits.

And after I posted that answer, the answered ratio went up from 84% to 86/87%. So, that's great. But when looking at http://drupal.stackexchange.com/users?tab=voters&filter=month, it looks like only a very low amount of users actually vote on questions. I guess a few of them went on a voting spree after reading my other question and the answers to it :)

So I think the question is, how can we get users to ask better questions, vote on answers and so on?

The only idea I had so far is to write some more faq questions here on meta to which we can link to in comments etc. One of them was "how to write questions that will be answered" but then I stumbled over http://drupal.stackexchange.com/questions/how-to-ask which is pretty much exactly what I had in mind to write. Can we maybe promote that page a bit more than only as an inline-link on the general faq page (which has like 100 more such links)?

I haven't found a similar page about voting (there is a paragraph about it on the general faq page, but there is IMHO way too much text there, nobody reads all of that). So maybe we could create a faq page for that?

Any other ideas?
