Question by Falcor: How is Yahoo Answers moderated for appropriate content? Is it like Live Search QnA?
I have noticed problems with presentation material on site Live Search QnA me and asked if Yahoo Answers had similar problems and what methods they used, if ever, monitored for inappropriate content. Is there a reporting system? Your input would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Yahoo! Answers uses Community Moderation. The users themselves monitor the site for appropriate content. It has problems due to abuse and improper interpretation of the Guidelines.

    There is no moderation. Just a system that goes “Two reports -> Delete”.
