On WikiAnswers, you cannot make your message board private. The message board is available for viewing by anyone on WikiAnswers.
When you write a message, this little message appears below the box you type in:
"This page isn't private. Although this is for messages to [user], anyone can read what's here. Also, this space isn't for asking questions. That's what the rest of WikiAnswers is for!"
No. You cannot change your WikiAnswers message board to private. All the boards are open to all registered members. It is the only way to communicate between standard users on the site.
Supervisors, however, do have personal email options.

Unfortunately, There is no way to do that. Message board are always public. That is why it is always important to be careful about what you post on message boards
Yes, you can put a message on anyone else's message board. Just keep in mind the message boards are not private, so don't post anything you wouldn't want others to read, or profanity of any kind. Also, don't post private info about yourself or others, such as addresses, phone numbers, etc.
I hope so! If I am of any use to you please message me here (public message board) or email me on mailto:johnwelsh@wikianswers.com (private supervisor's email)
If you mean the email address of other WikiAnswers contributors, then you have to ask them on their message board. Just keep in mind that the message boards are not private; anyone can read them.
You know who has a message board simply by looking if they are an ID or not. An ID is a guest user, and is not given a message board. On the other hand, a registered user has a message board.
Message boards are for the use of clarifying a question, but not as a chat board. See the FAQ for message board usage.
It doesn't stand for anything. It just means exactly what it says... message board. In this case, an electronic message board. If you are signed in, on the left on of the links will be "My message board," where you can go to respond to people's messages to you.

Yes, anyone can read your message board.
If you accidentally remove a message from your message board, contact a supervisor. If you are a supervisor, you can revert message boards to previous states. Note that this will remove any changes that were made to the message board since the deletion of the post.
This depends on the nature of your message. As long as you don't mind it being made public, use the message board(s). If you prefer it be more private, please send us a message via the Contact Us form (provided as a Related Link below).
