Why is WikiAnswers not accurate?

WikiAnswers is usually fairly accurate, as unlike many sites any question - and its rewordings - is answered with a unique, coherent statement or opinion (sometimes many of each).

Where an answer is not accurate, this is often because the question is not specific enough to be answered exactly; others because the person answering does not know/ has not given every detail, just enough to give you an overview or enough to start with.

Some questions also don't include enough information to be interpreted as a question, let alone answered, but these are usually removed from the general site.
