Only Supervisors have the ability to merge questions. Non-supervisors who reword questions may trigger a merge that will be sent to a Community Assistant for review. If the two questions should be merged, the CA will merge them.

How is it that Google Answers has fallen by the wayside yet WikiAnswers marches on?
Google Answers crashed and burned due to the lack of accurate answers and the fact that no one could edit the answers that were on Google Answers. WikiAnswers allows anybody to contribute, and doesn't simply search for answers - WikiAnswers MAKES answers. With the help of WikiAnswers' rival, Yahoo! Answers, both inadvertently teamed up and crushed Google Answers out of the answers competition.
