- Support Support Interesting proposal. I think a crucial point is how answers will be "chosen" (by consensus, as in other wikis?) and how to guarantee a neutral point of view. --Daniele Pugliesi (talk) 18:58, 26 July 2020 (UTC) [reply ]
- Comment Comment I'm not clear. Would this essentially function like sites such as Yahoo Answers? SecretName101 (talk) 23:30, 1 April 2021 (UTC) [reply ]
