Those 0, -1, -1, 0, and 4 numbers next to your questions in that screenshot are the current scores for those questions: the upvotes minus the downvotes.

Voting is a central feature of the Stack Exchange system; users with the upvote and downvote privileges help sort good content above lower quality content so that the best answers to each question become apparent.

If you haven't yet, you'll want to take our tour to get an overview of Stack Exchange's model and then browse the sections of our Help Center to learn more about asking, answering, voting, and more!

  • Sorry about that! How about "vote up" or "vote down"? That's the result from clicking one of the gray triangles next to a post's score. The top one points upwards (click it for an upvote); the one below the score points downwards and is for a downvote.
