What steps should a contributor take to work towards becoming a Supervisor?
Supervisors on WikiAnswers are just regular users who have been very active on the WikiAnswers community. You can become a supervisor just by doing your best to help out on WikiAnswers in any way you can. If an existing supervisor notices how good a job you are doing, he may recommend to a WikiAnswers administrator that you be made a supervisor.

Why isn't anyone supervising the Teen Dating category because there are supervisors but they haven't been on in months?
Sometimes a supervisor(s) will not be active during parts of the year. Sometimes it is temporary, other times permanent. If you are worried about their absence email or message a CA. If you want questions merged or trashed or something else that requires a supervisor to do it just message an active super and they will be happy to do it. Remember that just because a supervisor isn't assigned to a category doesn't mean that supervisors aren't active in it.

What is a Supervisor on WikiAnswers?
Some of WikiAnswers' most active and trusted contributors become Supervisors. These individuals are given additional Super Powers to perform an array of higher-level edits. Supervisors are able to merge questions together, block vandals, and spin off discussion posts into questions, and are equipped with a variety of other special abilities and functions to use at their discretion. Becoming a Supervisor does not require a minimum amount of work, but does require that the tools be used responsibly. We currently have two types of Supervisors: Category Supervisors and Floating Supervisors. Category Supervisors oversee one or more categories of interest. Often, those employed (or hobbyists) in a certain field will choose to become a Category-specific Supervisor. This gives them the advantage of really recognizing answers that need work, as they are familiar with the lingo and concepts . A Floating Supervisor, on the other hand, has all of the same tools as a Category Supervisor, without the responsibilities of overseeing a certain area of the site. This is a more open-ended way to get started. It's ideal for those without a lot of time, but who still want to contribute with more high-powered tools when they visit the site.
Could two Category Supervisors supervise the same subcategory?
There can actually be a multiple number of supervisors in one category, I've once seen 4 supervisors in one category! But it depends on how busy the category is, sometimes and usually the category may need more then just 1 supervisor for one category of interest. So there are usually a multiple number of supervisors, supervising a category. But usually less than 5, but hey, the more the merrier!
What does favorite category mean on answerscom profile?
