First of all, you must be a registered member to be eligible to receive Trust Points.

On your profile, your Trust Points are listed to the right under Stats: Your contributions are shown and under that are the number of Trust Points you have accumulated.

In addition, your Trust Points kind of "follow" you around the site. In many places on the site, there is a number in parentheses next to your name - that number signifies the current total of your points.

As an example the trust points displayed with this question are below the answer at the bottom of the answer box toward the middle where it displays [contributor trust].

Places where you can see the number of Trust Points:

  • When you leave a message on someone's message board.
  • When you are the first person to answer a question, after you have finished answering the question and have clicked on Save.
  • When you are the last person to have edited an answer.
  • If you have made any changes to the question or answer, it will display your name and Trust Points in the history of that question.

Why are your trust points not added to your total points on WikiAnswers?

Your total WikiAnswers contribution points are calculated as the sum of all of the contribution points you have earned. These include first answers, edits, organizational actions, questions asked, and community contributions. All of these points come under the heading of "Contributions" in your WikiAnswers profile. Trust points are slightly different. Contributors do not directly earn these points through their contributions; they are awarded trust points by other WikiAnswers users. Therefore, trust points are not counted as contributions, and do not add to the contribution points total in a WikiAnswers profile.
