HOW THEY WORK?
How to Ask a Question on Answers.com
1. First log in.
2. Type your question in the white bar found at the top of the screen and search.
3. Similar questions or asked questions are displayed in case they are the same question. If any of the suggestions matches what you are looking for, you can open the question.
4. For new questions, you should select a category.
5. After categorizing questions, you only wait for people to answer your questions.
Giving answers on WikiAnswers is also easy, you only need to scroll down and select questions and click on any you want to answer. After answering save it and it will be available for everyone.
BEST PRACTICES:
The best practice of WikiAnswers is that users have a chance to see if the question they are asking is already answered, check the answer, and if it is well tackled, they don’t have to create a new one. In case there is a similar question and answer, you can choose to settle with it or you can go ahead and still ask your question.
TIPS:
If you have added the question to your watchlist ensure to copy the url or make a bookmark to ensure you can easily come back and check the status.
While asking or answering questions, you should know that only apostrophes and periods work as punctuation. Commas do not.
