The only information available to users is what you include as a registered user. You don't have to be a member to post to WikiAnswers. The site does not ask for your name or any other personal information.
Registered users on WikiAnswers are identified by their username. Unregistered users on the site are anonymous users who either have not signed up or are simply not signed in. The site tracks them by their IP address, which is converted into an ID number for privacy. If you are a registered user and you see an ID number for your contributions (and you have to enter the CAPTCHA words), then you are not signed in - make sure you sign in to your account before contributing. If you've signed in but it still doesn't work, ensure that you have cookies enabled in your browser.
