Wiki is a Hawai'ian word- means quick. The site is intended to permit one to ask a brief question, and get a brief answer. Like this.

I do not use Answerbag in addition to WikiAnswers. Answerbag is much like Yahoo! Answers, and has the same quality flaws as Yahoo! Answers. The answers are as-is, while WikiAnswers has an answer being worked on by hundreds of contributors until the answer is perfect.

Does WikiAnswers really know all the answers?

No. WikiAnswers does not know all the answers. The WikiAnswers website only knows as much as the contributors that give the answers and the contributors only know so much since, as humans beings, we all still have questions about many different things that we can't find the answer to.But that doesn't mean the contributors on WikiAnswers don't have a great amount of knowledge to be shared.


Should WikiAnswers have a rule about adding more detail to your answers?

The Community Guidelines encourage contributors to use full sentences when answering a question, instead of just posting an answer such as "No." However, we cannot force people to add more detail to their answers; if you find an answer that lacks sufficient detail, please flag the answer for improvement. Another contributor can then edit the answer to add in more detail in relation to the question being asked.


Who is WikiAnswers sponsored by?

WikiAnswers is owned by the Answers corporation.
