There's only "modlook".

I can only speak for myself but I'd be interested in looking at these. I 
have noticed at least 1 user adding effectively useless replies to old 
threads recently and I've been removing them when I spot them.

Despite asking people to mark thread as resolved, a huge number of 
(apparently) resolved threads go unmarked. I think flagging them up as 
modlook would overwhelm the system, so I think they should be left 
unflagged.
