Mark questions as 'no longer relevant'

The questions in the Q&A section of a POI are sorted by the number of likes that were given. Sometimes this leads to unwanted results because the most-liked question might be about some event/situation which is no longer relevant. To indicate this, I propose to add a function that allows local guides to indicate that a question is no longer relevant. The algorithm could then e.g. move those to the bottom of the list.

 

Some additional background information: this idea is inspired by the discussion in another idea posted by @iorikun301, who pointed out that it is often quite difficult to find the most recent questions in the list on the Q&A tab and therefore suggested to sort them chronologically. Especially when you go back from the question to the info page of that POI (e.g. to copy the telephone number or visit the website) and then go back into the Q&A section, it can be quite challenging to find back the question, so sorting them chronologically would be a great help.

Thanks for your idea, @JanVanHaver! I saw that on the other idea that you have mentioned you have explained quite a lot but as I can see this is a different idea and would be really great if you can share a bit more so it can be more clear for the rest of community.

'No longer relevant' marks. Ah, yes, this should be usefull to be implemented to.

Changes might happened, so some of the question(s) and answer(s) on Q&A section could be no longer relevent.

Nice idea, @JanVanHaver :))
