Does WikiAnswers give bad answers

Best Answer

WikiAnswers itself does not give bad answers, no.
However some unruly and immature contributors might do.

There is a team of international Supervisors (moderators) in the community who actively seek out these bad answers and remove them. There are also some specially trained Supervisors called Vandal Patrol, who deal with issues such as spam attacks, cyberbullying and so on.
However, there are just over 1,000 Supervisors here who have to handle an average of 5 to 9 million international visitors a day. So, as you can imagine, a lot of things do slip through their fingers.

You are encouraged to help the Supervisors by reporting any bad content you see. You can do this by clicking the flag, which is next to the question. The Supervisors are grateful for the good contributors in the community and those that assist by reporting bad content to them.
