The unanswered question pages are currently being redone and are still being worked on. If you do not see any questions when you click on "Unanswered questions" in a category it is because there are no questions that have been asked in the last 3 days in that category. What you will need to do is where it says "Questions asked since" change it to say "anytime" and where it says "user filter" change it to say both and then it will show the unanswered questions in that category. This feature is suppose to encourage recently asked questions to be answered quickly.
"WikiAnswers Local" is a placeholder category for questions about certain countries. No new questions should be added to the main "WikiAnswers Local" category.

Probably not
because if certain questions don't fit in any other category, they need to go somewhere so people know where to find those types of questions to answer. =)
You may browse for a certain category (In the blue field on the left side of this screen), then scroll through unanswered or answered questions in that category.

As with any subject a certain number of questions need to be asked before it become a category or subcategory. Otherwise every question would have its own. If you feel there have been enough questions asked about a specific subject you can make a request to have it categorized.
It is not a competition about who posts the most. It is just about helping other people with their questions.
You can ask questions in any language you can type in. After you ask, just place the question in the "Languages and Cultures" category, and hopefully someone else that speaks that language will find it and answer it. If there are enough questions in a certain language, we'll make a separate category for it.
Click 'Browse Categories' on the left toolbar.Then either search for the category you want to answer in or look through the category tree for it.You can also "follow" that category when you visit it, so you'll be updated of new questions if you have the relevant setting enabled in your account settings.Find your category of interest through the Browse Categories link on the side of most pages. Click your category, and then on its page click All Unanswered Questions.
