We, at Philippines, want to improve everyone’s experience using the Philippines’ first and only homework helper website. Since the website uses crowdsourcing, this means every submitted question and answer is posted on in real-time.

How Can I Make Sure My Questions Are Not Deleted?

If you have a question, think about the type of answer you would like to get. Some questions are very vague and you would not even know what the user is talking about.

Use English or Filipino in your post. Make sure to use the language that is most comfortable for you so that there can be little to no grammatical errors that can end up in misunderstanding.

Do not post questions that are missing important details. Sometimes, in a hurry to post the question, we forget that not everyone is studying the same lessons or have the same books at school. Make sure to be specific so that you can also get specific questions.

Questions that are too easy where the answers are very obvious tend to get deleted, too, to give visibility to more complex topics.

Do not forget to post the question in the correct subject! All too many times, we hear users complaining that their questions are being ignored. The most common reason is that the questions are posted in the wrong subject and in turn, it does not get any views.

Do not post content that is not related to any lesson, homework, or school activity. This could get you a warning or ban from any of the administrators or moderators. Posting images, jokes, advertisements, links to social media accounts, or a love letter may seem funny but it does not help anyone at all. Please be mindful of others.

How can I make sure my answers are not deleted?

The simplest answer to this is to make sure that you provide all the answers asked for in the question.

However, there are also nuances to this. So what else do we need to make sure that our answers survive evaluation?
