AnswerI don't know if you do please put why,well I'll try to help you,well they answer questions and the confusing part is 'Wiki'. I think that's the guy's name or something I'm just guessing AnswerYou're partly right. Wikianswers does answer questions. (although sometimes it takes a while) Wiki describes a collection of web pages accessed, created, and edited by its users.

Answer

WikiAnswers discusses questions, true enough. But Wiki comes from the Hawaiian word for "Fast," or "quick." ("Fast Answers").
