When you answer questions and make minor edits why does WikiAnswers erase large parts of your answer?

WikiAnswers is not erasing your answer. If your answer is inappropriate then a supervisor may erase the your content to ensure that the best possible answer for a question alone remains, supervisors might also erase rubbish answers that include user's opinions when the real answer is to ask yourself. Supervisors might also delete questions that seem like advertisement or unneeded questions or rubbish, and they can delete messages sent from one user to another that was inappropriate or used inappropriate wording or was a threat to another user, supervisors can find out who sent the threatening message and temporarily or permanently block the user, if you are confronting in a kind of threatening message with a person we'd suggest you stop, but if you are receiving this kinds of messages tell a supervisor right away and include the threatening person's username and a supervisor will look into it and review your message board looking for the inappropriate message. Supervisors can help a lot of people with problems or tasks.

Why do people answer questions only to say 'I do not know'?
Such people clearly have very little to do with their time, therefore find the need to answer questions with useless answers. Thankfully, we have a great Vandal Patrol and Supervisor team on WikiAnswers, which eliminates a large proportion of this type of answer.
Is WikiAnswers mostly used by people avoiding doing their own homework?
Unlikely - although there are a large number of (obviously) homework questions. Remember - WikiAnswers is accessible right around the globe - some people may genuinely not know the answer to what might be a glaringly easy question.
