The reason why some Supervisors or CA's may lock your question is because it is prone to spam and vandalism.

Can you unlock a question on WikiAnswers?

Answers can only be locked or unlocked by a WikiAnswers Supervisor. Answers are "locked" in cases where an answer has become a debate instead of an answer, or if the answer has been vandalized too many times. If a question has been locked for either of these reasons, it may be unlocked after a time, or may be kept locked if the question continues to be a target for vandalism or debate within the answer.
