What if a non-supervisor feels that a certain question or answer should be protected?
Please contact a CA or a Supervisor to verify. A user may also contact a Supervisor or CA if valid alterations need to be made to the protected question or answer.

No. If you are asking about the "code" that must be entered to answer a question without being a logged-in member, that is to protect wikianswers from attacks by spambots.

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.
