I was probably not the supervisor you have in mind, but sometimes we have warned a person to stop answering questions when they are out of their depth. If a person gives factually wrong answers (not opinion, but fact) and they do it a few times, if we catch it, we usually just correct it. But a person that does this repeatedly is bordering on what we consider vandalism. Example- I am one of the supes on the firearms topic. If a person said that a 20 g shotgun is larger than a 12 g, that is incorrect. Not my opinion, but a matter of fact. Once or twice, I might just correct the answer. Repeated incorrect answers may draw a warning- as will rude behavior, name calling, etc. when we find deliberate vandalism (destroying someone else's answer, posting gibberish, violating terms of use) they may be banned- locked out from Wikianswers. I have locked out 3 people for very deliberate and immature vandalism. Manners are just as important here as in the face-to-face world.
Best regards- C3

How do you make asked questions go away on WikiAnswers on a mac?
It doesn't matter what computer you are on when you are on WikiAnswers - you cannot make asked questions go away on WikiAnswers. The question you asked will stay permanently on WikiAnswers, and can only be removed by a Supervisor. If your question is innapropriate, does not have enough info to answer, etc., it will be removed from WikiAnswers. However, if it is a legitimate question, it will not be removed from WikiAnswers. Contact a Supervisor if you wish to have a question removed.
Are the questions the wrong questions that are being asked?
No, all questions have an answer. Well, most do. If the question doesn't make sense, and it's grammar makes the littlest of sense that it cannot be modified to make it more reasonable, the question is unable to be answered. Some questions are inappropriate which, will be deleted by a Supervisor if they see it or a contributor will tell a Supervisor about the problem.
Who do you ask if you wish to become a supervisor?
You do not ask to be a supervisor. You are usually asked to be one. When people sign up and start answering questions, there are people watching to see how good people are at answering. If they see someone who answers a lot of questions very well or who seems to have a good knowledge in particular areas, they may ask the person if they would like to be a supervisor. It is not something that people look to become. It is an honour and privilege to be asked. So if you can show that you can make a positive contribution to the site, you might be lucky enough to be asked to become a supervisor. In the meantime, keep answering questions as best you can. Whether people are supervisors or not, that is what is most needed on this site.

Why do you have to ask questions if you want to be Supervisor on WikiAnswers?

Why are people putting dumb questions like 'What is so great about the name Bob' When this is a website for valid questions?
Y'know, I asked a supervisor about that once, and her response taught me a lesson."There's no such thing as a stupid question."

I am a TIP member but a Supervisor has warned me what can I do?
TIP Members are not supervisors nor above the rules of the site. You are still a regular contributor until you graduate from the program, therefore you are still eligible to receive warnings from Supervisors. If you disagree with or do not understand the warning, contact the Supervisor and ask for more information. Remember to be polite. If you are warned, please let your TIP Supervisor know right away, rather than having them find out themselves. If you disagree with the communication between you and the Supervisor who warned you, get in touch with your TIP Supervisor. Always be polite to other Supervisors, since communication is a very important part of being one yourself.
