Are the answers on this website legit?

Yes, most of the answers on WikiAnswers are legitimate answers. You can tell if they are legit answers by the user's trust points. ID's do not have trust points, and you are taking a chance at taking their answer as legit since they do not have trust points. Most of the answers on WikiAnswers are in fact legitimate answers.

Why does WikiAnswers not always have the answers you want?

It may take time before your question is answered. There is a community of people out there waiting to answer your question, but you have to give it the best chance of being noticed. If you categorize it correctly, use proper spelling and grammar, there is a better chance it will be featured on the homepage or answered quicker.


Is WikiAnswers a chance to say random things?

No. Some vandals do take advantage of the open, wiki nature of this site to write random things in questions and answers. However, other visitors can edit or remove what they wrote.


Since anyone can post answers on WikiAnswers is there a chance the answers could be wrong?

Whenever a site is open for anyone from around the world to answer questions, there are going to be times when someone gives an incorrect answer. Amazingly, though, since becoming a member over three years ago, I've found very few answers that are wrong, except for the obvious ones like "Who cares?" or others that clearly make no attempt to answer the question. Those answers are usually removed quickly by WikiAnswers' fantastic team of supervisors and other devoted users. If you come across a nonsensical answer or one that you believe is wrong, please contact one of WikiAnswers' supervisors! Awesome!


Who is right - WikiAnswers or the Magic 8 Ball?

Honestly, both are neither right nor wrong. Answers has a higher chance of being right because people actually answer, the magic 8 ball is just a random answer chosen by shaking the ball. I would use Answers because it is more reliable.


Does this wiki actually have any answers to the question you need?

It depends on the question, it could be in the Wiki archives somewhere or if someone reads your question and they know the answer they will place it on for you, WikiAnswers does have a vast amount of answers, if your question is detailed but short, you have a good chance of searching up your question. Wiki Answers could already have your question here in its archives, but it is not 100% guaranteed that your answer will be here.


Are questions in WikiAnswers right?

Most of the answers are correct, however there are some answers that have not had the chance to be supervised yet. One good way to know is to click on the name of the person who last edited the question and taking a look at their history on this site. If they just joined and do not have very many trust points, then they do not have as established a reputation.


Why should you use WikiAnswers?

Why Use WikiAnswers?Instead of getting numerous answers of varying quality - and having to choose which one you believe - WikiAnswers harnesses the collective knowledge of over 5 million registered users to create one best answer to each question, improved over time through collaboration. Though there are a number of ways to garner individual recognition on WikiAnswers, we are more about collaboration than competition. That's what makes the WikiAnswers community so special.Responses from contributors:You should use WikiAnswers because it is a wonderful chance to meet new people, and most importantly help other people my recategorizing, answering, editing, and much more to questions that other users ask. WikiAnswers is also very useful in looking up answers for a project, that little assignment for work that you could never find the answers to, or that question on your favorite book that's you've been asking in your mind forever, this is why a lot of people enjoy this site. It is like a drug. It is fun, it is cool, and it is helping other people find answers.
