What questions do not have enough information to be answered on WikiAnswers - 2?

The question "Not enough info" in the second tier should not be removed, as it is a shortcut question to use for quicker merges instead of typing out the entire question or copying and pasting. Thank you!

WikiAnswers is designed to provide a specific answer to a specific question.

• General questions usually cannot be answered because it would take an entire website or a textbook to do that - questions such as "Explain biology" or "What are the names of all cars ever made?" are too broad to be answered.
• Questions that require us to look at a picture or diagram that you have in front of you cannot be answered because we cannot see your assignment page.
• Questions that must be answered with your opinion cannot be answered by anyone except you - job application questions such as "Why do you feel you should work for this company?" or "Where do you hope to be in five years?" cannot be answered by another person.
• Partial questions or question fragments cannot be answered - a sentence fragment such as "preparation for a position" or "pi R squared" do not explain what your question is, and cannot be answered.
• Questions that are actually statements cannot be answered because they are not questions. "You are in love with a boy and he does not know you exist" is not a question and cannot be answered.
• Questions that do not contain enough information cannot be answered - asking "did he die?" or "how did she become rich?" cannot be answered because we do not know who you are asking the question about.
• Questions that should be asked in a chat room cannot be answered because this is not a chat room. "Who are you?" or "What is your favorite color?" are not questions that can be answered on this website.

Please note: some questions that are fragments or actually statements can be trashed instead of merged. This is a judgment call. Ask yourself if the fragment/statement could be asked by someone, somewhere, sometime in the future. If it could be, then merge it. If it wouldn't be, trash it.

"not enough info" is a shortcut question to merge into.

Tip: Don't use pronouns such as he, she, it, them, their, his, her, its, and so forth in your question. Chances are, we won't know who she, he, them, and what it is and won't be able to answer your question. You must indicate the subject properly in your question. However, questions in which the subject is already indicated within it, may use those pronouns, ex: "When Miley Cyrus starred on Hannah Montana, how old was she?" is okay.

Note to supervisors: This is a catch-all question. Neither it nor its alternate wordings should be deleted. See the related question below for info about catch-all questions
