WikiAnswers is a Q&A community website run by Answers Corporation.

The website was originally founded as FAQFarm by Chris Whitten in 2003. WikiAnswers is based on a customised version of MediaWiki called Wiki FAQs. The site is constantly growing with the efforts of the question and answer community. It is the user-driven component of Answers.com where visitors share what they know and ask about what they don't.

What is unique about WikiAnswers is that people don't ask the same questions over and over again. Contributors improve and add to each other's answers instead of writing out separate answers to the same question. The answers can then be collaboratively improved and added to by other users over time. Administrators also have the ability to merge and collate duplicate questions to try to provide definitive answers. In 2007, the site's parent company, Answers.com, began to merge some of the content from WikiAnswers into its main reference content.
