Best Answer

It means you were first to answer and edit even if you diden't edit it. So, if someone else comes to edit the answer after you it will say last to edit: your name there and the persons name to.

Can more than one person answer your question on WikiAnswers?

In a sense, yes. Someone can answer your question but, someone else can come along and "improve" the answer. Where your answer is, there's the word "improve", when someone clicks it, they can add to the answer. If you click on your question that was answered you will see "first answered by" and then a name. To the right of that you will see "last edited by" and then a name. Last edited by is the person that added to the answer. If "first answered by" is the only person that answered your question, their name also appears next to "last edited by", even though they didn't edit. That's just the way the system is.

What is a Minor Edit?

Sometimes you go into an answer just to fix the spelling or make a small change and you don't add any important new information. When you do that, you should put a check mark in the little Minor Edit box (next to top right of answer) before you click on Save.That way your name will not replace the name of the person who provided the data for the answer. However, your name, and what you did, will be permanently listed in the 'Question History' and in 'My Contributions'. (Both on the blue sidebar)It is considered bad manners to let your name be put on the answer if you don't add new information. And the person you replaced may send you a strong opinion on your message board! Anyone who does it repeatedly will be treated as a vandal.What should you do if you forget? It's embarrassing, but we all slip up now and then.-You can forget about it and try to be more careful next time.-You can look in the Question History for the Last Editor's name. Click on the name and send an apology on their message board and ask them to make a small edit to the question so their name will be reinstated as the last editor.- A supervisor can Revert the question back to what it was before. Then you can make your corrections again and this time check the Minor Edit box.--Remember, a Minor Edit may be called 'minor' but that doesn't mean it is unimportant! It covers rewording, correcting spelling and capitalization, verifying facts, deleting repetitions, and all the improvements that turn a good answer into a great answer.--Seasoned veterans will sometimes call their additions 'Minor' just to encourage new users. They don't want to replace someone's name on their very first answer!
