- THF (talk) 00:02, 9 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- We already have WP:RD. Computerjoe's talk 23:14, 9 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- The reference desk already fulfills this function. - Mgm|(talk) 13:23, 10 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Search is your friend. WP:NOT a place to get answers for your homework. — MrDolomite • Talk 17:36, 10 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Fast track to fights and soapboxing when more intricate or opinion-based questions are asked. Also, without various in-field experts, the sorts of questions likely to often be seen will be relatively unanswerable by volunteers - "I saw a small brown and orange flying insect, and live in northwest montana. Is it an invasive species of moth or local species of butterfly?" ThuranX (talk) 15:22, 15 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Oppose -- see WP:RD -- -- Absolon S. Kent (chat), 15:22, Saturday, May 25, 2024 (UTC)
- Oppose. The only well-balanced implementation of this I've ever seen was Yahoo! Answers. Use that. Bob the Wikipedian (talk • contribs) 21:25, 2 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
