Why is WikiAnswers so important?
WikiAnswers is important because it is a question and answer website and it answers questions for everyone everywhere. A lot of question and answer websites don't allow you to edit answers but WikiAnswers allows you to edit any answer as many times you want. Once the answer is perfect and percise, the answer may be locked by a supervisor.
How do you edit protected questions on WikiAnswers?
You must be either a Supervisor or Community Assistant to edit protected questions. If you want a question to be unlocked, please email this address: Reopen @ WikiAnswers.com (remove the spaces).
How do you become a WikiAnswers editor?
Anyone can edit WikiAnswers Q&A. Simply login and click "improve answer" (or other editing links) on any question page. You might also want to become a WikiAnswers Supervisor. See the link to the left.
Where do you go to report mistakes on a WikiAnswers page?
If it is on a question and answer page, you can edit the question's answer yourself. If it something you can't fix, you could report it to the Supervisor of that category. If that category doesn't have a Supervisor, you could e-mail WASupport @ Answers.com (no spaces) for assistance.
How are answers closed for edits on WikiAnswers?
Most answers that are closed to edit are closed by the Supers (supervisor's)
How can a non supervisor request that a question and answer be locked on WikiAnswers?
You ask a supervisor of that category the question is in to do it and give good reason.
What is the meaning of the lock beside a question on WikiAnswers?
The yellow lock is an indication that a question has been "protected" by a Supervisor. Only Supervisors can then edit the question.Protecting a question is a way to prevent a question from being repeatedly spammed or vandalized. If you want a question to be unprotected, send a message to any Supervisor.(For more information, see the Related question.)
How do you delete every answer that you wrote on WikiAnswers?
If you want to remove every answer that you wrote and do not want your user name (or ID) to appear as the one who made the last edit to an answer to a question, ask a supervisor to get rid of your answers for you. The supervisor will only get rid of your answers if they are invalid as an answer to the question, and will not get rid of the answer if it is a good answer.
Why can't I edit a question on WikiAnswers and why is the supervisor's name over the answer instead of the answerer?
Please contact us (link in Related Links) with the specific link you're referring to, so that we can take a look and answer your question!
Are you allowed to feature your own question on WikiAnswers?
Yes, if you are a supervisor.
What does WikiAnswers contain?
WikiAnswers is a Q&A style Wiki. What that means is that someone asks a question and contributors can answer it, edit or or edit the answers.
How do you make asked questions go away on WikiAnswers on a mac?
It doesn't matter what computer you are on when you are on WikiAnswers - you cannot make asked questions go away on WikiAnswers. The question you asked will stay permanently on WikiAnswers, and can only be removed by a Supervisor. If your question is innapropriate, does not have enough info to answer, etc., it will be removed from WikiAnswers. However, if it is a legitimate question, it will not be removed from WikiAnswers. Contact a Supervisor if you wish to have a question removed.
