Talk:Q&A comedy website

message: Article listed on Wikipedia:Votes for deletion Apr 14 to Apr 20 2004, consensus to keep.  Discussion:
* This page no longer gives an accurate description of modern Q&A based on the academic literature being published.  Specifically, I think this page should be edited to address the setting in of Yahoo! Answers, Answers.com, answerbag, etc as dominant Q&A websites. 216.160.52.84 (talk) 01:41, 20 September 2008 (UTC)

message: You forgot to mention me, the most retarded individual in the Q&A community! Why, I had the entire readership and administration of TMoL sort of annoyed. Also, you need to enter more info about my upcoming sex change.

thread_title:  I'm infamous! 

message: It is very misleading that the Wikipedia article on Q&A websites is:
"A Q&A website is a website where the site creators use the images of pop culture icons to answer input from the site's visitors" 
It is broader. Yahoo Answers, Stack Overflow  and answers.com are examples 
of what is conceived as being Q&A websites.

replies: text: I'm not sure many people refer to the type of site you mention as a "Q&A website" - the Answers.com page uses the phrase but doesn't link to this article, the StackOverflow article doesn't give the type of site a name, and I don't see any confusion in the pages that link to this article. From the existence of :Category:Knowledge markets, it seems that "knowledge market" may be the more common term for sites like Answers.com. I'll add a hatnote to this article. --McGeddon (talk) 16:16, 4 July 2010 (UTC)

We put Yahoo Answers, Amazon's Askville, and rival question-and-answer services to the test.. --Mortense (talk) 16:01, 13 November 2010 (UTC)
thread_title:  Q&A website is broader 

message: Years ago "Q&A website" might have referred to this. Today the term refers to something completely different. In fact, elsewhere on Wikipedia sites like Answers.com and StackOverflow are referred to as Q&A websites. This page is like having a page "computer" that defines it as a person who carries out calculations, but makes no mention of what the term has come to mean more recently.

thread_title:  Agreed, this is painfully outdated 

message: I want to get started to become a contributor to wikipedia and would like to rewrite the article. Before I get started I'd like to get some input about whether there might be other articles under different names which cover the topic already in order to avoid to put a lot of effort into producing a duplicate. 
I found List of question-and-answer websites which I'll link in the article. Zgh (talk) 15:09, 25 April 2015 (UTC)
