You can either erase it, or tell a Supervisor or Vandal patrol member. As helpers on this site, we do whatever we can to keep the site running in top form, and this INCLUDES blocking cyberbullies. Vandalisim can be anywhere, including message boards. So far, we've had several people vandalize ou very own supervisors. All have been blocked, but I can bet you my LIFE that there are still a few on this site, and we're working as hard as possible to blok all of them.
To help control vandalism. Signing up takes just seconds.
Signing up for an account allows you to use more advanced features on WikiAnswers. You can't edit questions without signing up for an account because WikiAnswers wants you to sign up and contribute to WikiAnswers. Think of not signing up as a demo version of WikiAnswers - you can use some of the features of WikiAnswers, just to get a feel for WikiAnswers, and we give you just enough so you can figure out how everything works on WikiAnswers. Signing up for your account gives you all the standard features on WikiAnswers that you didn't get in your 'demo' version of WikiAnswers. The standard features include editing, while the demo version does not. Signing up for WikiAnswers is completely free, so signing up for WikiAnswers will allow you to edit questions. The other main reason is because of vandalism. 90% of vandalism occurs from unregistered users on WikiAnswers, so giving unregistered users the power to edit a question could potentially give them the power to wipe out every answer on WikiAnswers. That is why you must sign up for an account to edit.
Vandalism is harmful and has many negative effects that include unnecessary expense in repairs and clean up. It makes neighborhoods and areas look dangerous and unsafe.
Due to the number of questions submitted each day to WikiAnswers, a number will inevitably be neglected. These bots help clean up these questions so they have a better chance of being answered.
yes wikianswers does help ppl because whatever you ask most likely wikianswers will come up with an answer...... thx....
Only answers can be flagged for improvement such as spelling or grammar clean-up. If a question is offensive, the fastest solution is to contact a WikiAnswers Supervisor by posting on the Report Vandalism and Abuse board of the Community Forum. You can also use the 'report abuse' button which is just above the question. Of course, you must be logged in and be a user in good standing to be able to flag a question.
Please keep in mind that WikiAnswers is a wiki Q&A, and as such, anyone can edit answers, questions, alternates, and whatnot (Guests can only answer questions/edit answers to questions.). There are several reasons why people would write inappropriate answers, most of them being vandalism. However, Supers and non-Supers alike are working hard to warn and rid of vandals, as well to clean up the site.
Yes you can always help clean up trash anywhere .. < -
Yes, toilet papering a house is generally considered vandalism because it involves intentionally damaging or defacing someone's property without their permission. It can also cause a mess that the homeowner then has to clean up.
To stop vandalism, you can increase surveillance in the area, improve lighting, install security cameras, form community watch programs, and educate the public about the consequences of vandalism. Additionally, promptly cleaning up any existing vandalism can discourage further incidents.
My friend, That's all up to you. Nobody on WikiAnswers can help you with that!
we can help clean the oil spill by volunteering to help clean the animals who have oil on them.
