Yes. I quit Yahoo Answers, too. I doubt if we had the same reasons, but you'll like WikiAnswers. There still are alot of questions about Sex (which seemed to be the main subject in YahooAnswers) but here, people ask a great variety of questions and you get a great variety of answers. People seem to do actual research for their answers here. Here is an unofficial 'Welcome' for you! This despite that WA is less censorious. I'm also on Answerbag.
Some people, called vandals, enjoy vandalizing answers.
Questions on WikiAnswers are answered by various people who enjoy answering questions. Anyone can do it if they create an account on the site. Some of us already know the answers. Others do a little research.
Because it gives u great answers and helps in need of all the way from homework to pop stars. Enjoy your time at wiki answers
We, the general public! Some of us are experts in our field, some of us just know the answers, some of us enjoy researching for you, and some of us can work out the answers from the information given in the questions! For more information, see the 'Welcome' link and the 'Help center' link. Enjoy WikiAnswers!
Because I enjoy contributing here. It's a great site when you get past the small minority of idiotic answers and dumb questions.
* Well, Because its fun * Currently it is free * Clever, those WikiAnswerians, getting us to work for nothing, but we are enjoying ourselves * Anyway, how would you pay anonymous contributors? * And if you did pay for answers, you would have to charge for answers, and WikiAnswers would no longer be free * So enjoy it! Actually, the question makes an incorrect assumption. They CANNOT be sold. The message at the bottom of each WikiAnswers page says, "We invite you to copy and share Q&A under a license..."; specifically, (via that ), the "Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike 2.5 License", which states explicitly, "Noncommercial. You may not use this work for commercial purposes." Thus, they cannot be sold, even if WikiAnswers were bought out by another company. ---- In agreement with the above, I store most of my standard answers in here than put reference links in my answers to Yahoo Answers and AnswerBag questions.
You can add some things like how much you enjoy the WikiAnswers website, and why you think you would make a good supervisor. They pretty much decide if they want you as a Supervisor by seeing all the contributions you have made and whether you are trustworthy when it comes to the answers you give.
it's acyrus.never_givesup@yahoo.com enjoy !!
Well the challenge is that the Wiki concept allows anyone to put answers in. There are those that enjoy vandalizing answers. There are over 1000 Supervisors that monitor answers and questions for such vandalism. You can help by letting us know when you find things like this by posting in the forum, clicking "Report Abuse", or posting on a Supervisor's message board.
WikiAnswers does not know who "he" is, so we cannot answer the question.
If you enjoy giving back to the community with nothing in return, becoming a supervisor on WikiAnswers would be volunteer work perfect for you! Supervisors on WikiAnswers do not get paid with cash.
Some are really nice! In general, most contributors and Supervisors on WikiAnswers are people who genuinely enjoy helping others with answers to their questions. If you ever come across a 'mean' contributor, be sure to report them to a Supervisor or in the appropriate topic within the Community Forum and they will be dealt with accordingly.
