Because people randomly post incorrect answers because they think it is funny. Before posting an answer, think what you are going to write and look it up to see if u are correct.
Addition:
The answers are inaccurate in some cases because:
anyone can sign up for an account and start answering questions.
the person answering the question doesn't care to give the accurate answer.
the question was not phrased properly
the question was not a serious question and therefore the person answering doesn't feel like giving a serious accurate answer
Sometimes, a person doesn't understand the question. Other times, they might not fully understand their own answer is confusing.
You know when you are giving inaccurate answers when you don't know the answer. If you believe you sort of know the answer, but don't really know it, chances are that you are giving inaccurate answers. It is up to you whether or not you know when you are giving inaccurate answers.
Yes, but should only do so if the answer is inflammatory, inaccurate, or inappropriate.
Because the site is not reviewed and many people writing answers here don't know the subject matter.
WikiAnswers is a Q&A website. Discussions are not answers. Discussions go on the discussion page
There not. Its who dosent undertand the answers who are stupid.
Cheating doesn't pay. The answers on WikiAnswers website are given by visitors to the site. Some of them give accurate answers, some do not. Supervisors on the site try to remove as many inaccurate answers as we can, but we cannot get to them all. There are thousands of questions and answers on the site.
It does not suck. It is a very good website although some information can be inaccurate.
there is really not a website so i guess you would have to cheat off a neighbor to get all answers.
If they do not do their specialized "job" they are not worthy of being a specialized cell so they die or "fade away" and just saying but if u are stupid enough to go on this website then GET OFF BECAUSE THESE ANSWERS ARE INACCURATE!! but my answer is accurate.
Because our website has answers to peoples questions. Why is yours so pathetic?
Because no one and no system is perfect. However, answers that are inaccurate can be edited if a more accurate one is found.
So that other people can know the answers.
