Why was my question marked as spam?

James Shablow July 10, 2018

Last night I asked this question about an issue I encountered while upgrading JIRA from a very old version to the latest version. This morning I look to see if there were any answered and discovered it had been marked as spam. Can someone explain why this was marked as spam? There doesn't appear to be any ability to dispute it.

Hi @James Shablow

I think it was the Spam check algorithm thingy  of the Atlassian Community, it sometimes moves things to spam that are actually questions. Luckily this happens not very often.

Looks like your question was moved out of the spam already. :)

I suspect the use of tags somehow made the algorithm think your question was Spam. Just my guess. :D

Cheers

Thank you for the info. It does appear that the tags were slimmed down to 1/3 of what I had..
