Latest Lists

Why are my questions disappearing without explanation?

I keep posting questions in the baby names section that feature my baby name list from another website. This list allows people to vote on the the names. I have seen other people successfully post questions with a name list in the past. Why are my questions not making it to the baby name section, even though they appear as a normal question on my profile? They are mysteriously disappearing. You'd think Yahoo Answers would at least send an email if stating why my question violates the guidelines...

1. My guess is it was picked up as spamming, or a repeating answer. Try re-wording the answer to show that it's not spam, but an answer to the specific question asked. That should help.
2. If you are adding a link that is the most likely cause. Links can trigger the filter.
3. Well you should have gotten emails saying you were reported but you shouldn't need an explanation because if you had read the TOS and community guidelines like you claimed you did you would already know why those questions were deleted...bottom line it is your responsibility to learn the rules and follow them.. Y!A is community moderated meaning that users who do know the guidelines reported your "questions".
