What should you do if a WikiAnswers contributor has done advertisement in a question instead of answering it?
Self-promotion is allowed on a contributor's Profile page but never in an answer.
Most likely the contributor is a robot. Most robots will be blocked from the site by a Supervisor. If you are a contributor, you should report your finding to a Supervisor, who will deal with it accordingly.
However, if it is a normal contributor, the user will be warned by a Supervisor to stop advertising in answers. If the user does not heed the warning, their account will be suspended. WikiAnswers is a Q&A site, and it not to be used for advertising.
