<p>Robert Cartainos's answer <a href="https://meta.stackexchange.com/questions/3669/would-it-be-possible-to-have-a-community-accepted-feature">here</a> states the following:</p>

<blockquote>
  <p>The "accepted answer" feature was never intended to mark which answer is best or even if the answer is correct. It is, simply stated, the answer that the original author found most useful in solving their problem. </p>
</blockquote>

<p>Voting is the most reliable and safe tool to address that a question indeed is answered (in context of content quality).</p>

<p>Today we have:</p>

<ul>
<li>757 zero score accepted answers (<code>isaccepted:1 score:0</code>)</li>
<li>5356 answers with zero score (<code>is:answer score:0</code>)</li>
<li>9535 <a href="https://stats.stackexchange.com/questions?sort=unanswered">unanswered</a> questions.</li>
</ul>

<p>I believe the key point for us if we want to get the big fish is to focus on more voting* regardless of whether the answer is accepted or not. If the content is good, vote for it!!</p>

<p>I believe it is OK to look for zero-score answers on a subject you understand and help with voting (up and down).</p>

<p>But I wouldn't go either on a crusade or just on zero-score accepted answers.</p>
