Why is this search engine so crap?
WikiAnswers is not a search engine, it is a community for asking questions.
Why is there no separate WikiAnswers category for Aristotle Onassis?
well there isn't because they can't have everything in different categories so that's why you press reference topic when you type something in the search bar.
Why are people typing random things on WikiAnswers and then submitting them?
The people who do that think that WikiAnswers is more like a search engine from the WikiAnswers database, so they type in what they would in a search engine, not knowing they are asking a question and not searching for a question like they would in a search engine.
Is WikiAnswers a good or a bad search engine?
Actually, WikiAnswers isn't a search engine - it has several search features, but examples of true search engines would be Google or AltaVista. A search engine searches for information based on keywords and returns a listing of sites where the information can be found. WikiAnswers is a wiki-based Q&A site, where questions and answers are grown and edited collaboratively by the community. What's nice about WikiAnswers is that you can search for AND find the information you are looking for all in one place. So, the answer to your question is, "No. WikiAnswers is not a bad search engine because it's not a search engine at all."
Why is WikiAnswers so brief and un-thorough?
wikianswers is for quick easy answers. For info on a big subject you can go to wikipedia.com
How do you set your search results so WikiAnswers shows both answered and unanswered questions instead of just answered questions when you ask a two-worded question?
Choose the answer bar, which is close to the top of the page.Type the search query into the answer bar. Click Go.On the left side of the screen under 'Search results' click 'Unanswered'In the menu that pops up, select 'All'You are done. Now you will get both answered and unanswered results.
How many questions can WikiAnswers hold?
WikiAnswers can hold an infinite amount of questions. This is the Internet, it's so big there aren't limitations.
Is WikiAnswers the best ever search site?
I believe that WikiAnswers is the best ever search site for those questions that no one around you knows, but is so complicated, no website has that exact question, and you just need a real answer by a real person. That is why WikiAnswers is the best ever search site for those questions no other website could ever answer.
Where can you find videos that show information about the WikiAnswers website?
You can find videos that show information about WikiAnswers on YouTube. If you type in WikiAnswers in the YouTube search box, you will most likely find a video that shows about WikiAnswers. WikiAnswers has a YouTube channel, so you can see many other videos related to WikiAnswers, too.
Where is the green bar to ask the questions?
I believe WikiAnswers have updated their look. So from now on, when you want to ask a question, you simply type it into the blue bar above instead.
Why is WikiAnswers so famous?
WikiAnswers is a great website for asking questions and getting answers. When someone has a question, WikiAnswers is one of the places they can go to get an answer. Answers on WikiAnswers also rank high on search engine results for many questions, so people can easily find out about the website while searching Google
Why can't Wikipedia and WikiAnswers be linked so that you can ask questions right on Wikipedia?
Well, Wikipedia is more of a search engine and gives you information. Wikianswers is there to help you if you have anything to ask.
