FAQ: What does [dead] mean?

> The post was killed by software, user flags, or moderators.

> Dead posts aren't displayed by default, but you can see them all by turning on 'showdead' in your profile.

> If you see a [dead] post that shouldn't be dead, you can vouch for it. Click on its timestamp to go to its page, then click 'vouch' at the top. When enough users do this, the post is restored. There's a small karma threshold before vouch links appear.

Still not answering the question.

What you quote from the FAQ tells you what it "[Dead]" means, it doesn't tell you how to find posts marked as "Flagged".

The FAQ tells you that you can have "Dead" posts displayed by turning on "showdead", but the question is asking how "Flagged" posts can be found.

The FAQ does not answer that question.
