This is a good question. When you click "Ask a Question" and use the question form you can't simply type in a few key words and go and you can't explain your whole story. You need to write your query in a complete but concise sentence in the form of a question. We've done things this way because WikiAnswers is not a search engine (where you use keywords to find information) and it's not a discussion forum (where people exchange information freely). It's something unique. It's a site for growing information resources collaboratively. When you ask a question on WikiAnswers you're doing more than looking for an answer. You're planting a seed for a new topic. Your question will grow into a permanent question-answer resource for everyone looking for this information.
The question you asked is inappropriate for WikiAnswers.

There are so many questions on WikiAnswers that it is impossible to total exactly how many questions there are. Even now, questions are being asked, so the total will always keep changing.
Questions that are asked never get deleted, unless it is against the rules of WikiAnswers. The question is permanently logged into the WikiAnswers databased, and never goes away.
If you are a registered user, go to "My contributions" on he blue panel on the left. Then select "Filter by: Questions (asked)". It will then list all the questions you've asked on WikiAnswers.

We cannot give an accurate number of questions that are asked to answer Homework or Tests, as it can be hard to distinguish between the Homework questions and genuine questions. Asking for Homework help on WikiAnswers is not against any rules.
Go to 'My contributions' located in your blue side bar, filter to 'Questions (asked)', and they will be listed.
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.
