in need of help. Everything you do – asking questions,
answering questions, commenting on others’ answers, even logging in to
the service – earns you points; each point you earn is one step further
towards a place in the Wellness Board Experts Corner. | |

Question
| How do I ask a question?
On the Wellness Board Q&A home page, you will find an “Ask a Question” box,
click on that box. Type in your question, select a category and post
your question. | |
| Top |
| How do I know if my question has been answered? You
can do this in one of two ways. You can go to the Q&A home page and
browse through the questions till you find yours, and check there for
answers. A simpler way is, you can at the time of
asking the question submit your email ID. Automatic alerts will be sent
to you each time an answer is posted to the question you asked. | |
| Top |
| What is a category for a question?
Category for the question is like a subject or a topic which is best
described by your question. For example, a question like “How do I get
rid of dark circle under eyes” will fit into “Health & Beauty”
category. Thus when you click on any category anywhere on Wellness Board
Q&A, you will see all the questions asked and answered under that
specific category. | |
| Top |
| What are the tags? A
tag is a word or phrase that is key to your question – sort of like a
label. Tags help keep track of information, and help you find
information relating to a question you may have. For instance,
the question ‘How do I get rid of dark circles under eyes’ may have
tags like ‘dark circles’, ‘eyes’, ‘beauty’, etc. If you click on each
of these tags, you will find further information on those subjects;
tags thus make it easier for you to broaden your knowledge base on any
topic. | |

Answering

where you can see all existing answers. You will also find a button
labeled ‘Answer this question’. Click, and you will get a form in which
you can submit your response. | |
| Top |
| What are the benefits of answering a question?
Firstly, you get to share the knowledge you have accumulated, with the people who are most in need of it.
At a more practical level, when you answer a question we award you 10 points.
The points you earn helps you progress through the various levels.
At each level, you get additional privileges and points, all of which
helps you progress to the point where you enter the Wellness Board Experts Corner. | |

| What is the best answer?
The answer which the original asker selects as the best, is treated and shown as the best answer. | |
| Top |
| What are comments, and how do I use them? As
you go through the answers others have given to various questions, a
comment or suggestion or even additional information might occur to
you. You can post all such material by clicking on the comment
icon (JPEG); a box will open where you can type in your thoughts and
attach them to the answer in question. Besides enhancing the
information provided by adding your comments, you also earn points for
each comment you make, so there is another good reason. | |
| Top |
| Once I submit my answer, can I still edit or delete it?
No, your answer once submitted is final. Please review your answer
before you submit it – remember, good answers earn you votes and
additional points. | |
| Top |
| Can I change my vote once I have cast it?
No, sorry. Think before you vote is a good axiom, on Wellness Board Q&A as it is in our general elections. | |
| Top |
| Can I rate more than one answer to a question?
No, you cannot rate more than once. | |
| Top |
Report Abuse
| What should I do if I find objectionable content? You can report the content by clicking on the ‘report abuse’ button. | |
| Top |
| What types of content qualify as ‘abuse’? The
‘report abuse’ button can be used if, in any post, you find content
that is objectionable, abusive, hateful, or is a personal attack on
other Wellness Board users or the larger community. You can ‘report abuse’ if
the post in question is exploitative, or otherwise harmful to, minors.
You can also use it in case the post contains pornographic content, or
qualifies as Spam. | |
| Top |
| What happens to posts that are reported for abuse?
Any post reported for abuse goes to the moderator, who will decide
whether the question/answer is permissible. The moderator’s decision is
final and binding. If you have reported a post for abuse and you think
the moderator has missed it, you can email feedback with a link to the content you find abusive. | |
| Top |
| Why was my question/comment/answer deleted from the site? When
somebody uses the ‘report abuse’ button for a question/answer/comment,
and if the moderator decides the complaint is valid, the post in
question is automatically deleted from the site. | |
