I have a question here that hasn't received any answers in a while. Is it appropriate to repost the question so it receives some more attention?

1Further: It's possible that no one here knows the answer. Have you spread the question around to get it a wider audience? Have you continued to do the research yourself? Maybe you'll find the answer after all.– aleCommented Sep 24, 2016 at 13:14

What should I do if no one answers my question?
First, make sure you’ve asked a good question. To get better answers, you may need to put additional effort into your question. Edit your question to provide status and progress updates. Document your own continued efforts to answer your question. This will naturally bump your question to the homepage and get more people interested in it.
If, despite your best efforts, you feel questions aren’t getting good answers, you can help by offering a bounty on any question more than two days old.
