WikiAnswers has a dedicated team of over 550 volunteer supervisors who patrol the site for profanity and other inappropriate answers. They revert all such answers they encounter. Profanity is strictly forbidden on WikiAnswers.

Many people of many ages and backgrounds use this site. It is disrespectful to expose people to such language, especially when such profanity adds no benefit to an answer. Profanity is unnecessary in answers, regardless.

What questions need to be sucked into a vacuum cleaner on Wikianswers?

I am assuming you are metaphorically asking what questions need to be removed from WikiAnswers. WikiAnswers is trying to become a PG-13 site. Any swearing/profanity, hacking or bypassing blocked sites, illegal activities, cyberbullying and other inappropriate questions and answers are removed. Nonsense questions, questions with not enough information provided and questions that add no value to WikiAnswers are also removed.


Who is in charge of WikiAnswers and why are you using profanity?

Well, that would be the employees of Answers.com (CA's) but also the vouleenteer workers (Supervisors). But some answers may have profanity in them, so we supervisors and CA's try going out and finding all of the answers that do have profanity. We try to lower the amount of it. But you have to remember that there are alot of answered questions. And more are being answered daily. And you have to remember that the people answering questions. Are people like you. We answer some, but this site gets its answers from the users like you. If you do see profanity in an answer. Then don't be afraid to tell a supervisor, or a CA. They will deal with it ASASP.
