The questions on WikiAnswers are not answered instantaneously; nobody is that good. The most common problem is that you haven't written the question properly e.g. bad spelling or grammar (as this question itself demonstrates).
WikiAnswers is rather accurate most of the time, but this accuracy is of course a a bit lower due to the fact that anyone can ask or answer a question. But, most of the content is accurate due to our hard working contributors who edit questions that give false information. Freshly answered questions might have some inaccuracy, but the questions that have been here for a good time are most of the time correct.
WikiAnswers relies on the answers of its Contributors; be patient and your question will be answered! Ensuring that it has correct spelling and is placed in the correct categories will help it be answered quicker.
